If you were truly overweight (not talking just a few pounds) and needed good motivation and had the chance to pay a decent price for a personalized weight plan, menu, exercise plan, emails, etc would you pay the person? And if so how much? I am thinking of doing this for extra money and I am actually helping my husband right now lose 70 lbs. In 2 weeks he has lost 6 lbs so I think I could help other people. Thanks!

No actually to be a nutritionist you do not need to have a license or education. If you want to be certified you do. I do plan on working on getting certified. However certification takes awhile. It can take 4-6 years because you have to have a bachelor's degree plus clinicals.
And also I disagree with the motivation thing. My husband is having to lose 70 pounds due to medical issues and that wasn't enough motivation. It took a serious diet and exercise plan with my help to keep him motivated.

I did some research on diet plans.
Here's the deal:

Weight Watchers - $10.90 to $12 week for some books with points and weekly weigh-in sessions which equals to $43.60-$48 monthly but their support is not really personal

Jenny Craig - $20 for 20 lbs but you have to pay for the food; don't know how much that is.

Nutrisystem - Women's Program 1 month $294-$327 including food but that is just 1 person

I thought maybe monthly $35

Wouldn't you need to be certified as a dietician or personal trainer to be able to charge?

Anyway, no I wouldn't pay. If I can't motivate myself no one would be able to motivate me. It has to come from within.

Schizophrenia, what a few individuals have no idea is that a few individuals are negatively suffering from marijuana. It is understood to deliver on psychosis(hallucinations). I had a buddy years in the past who was once flawlessly excellent till he began smoking marijuana on a consistent groundwork and he ended up in a intellectual sanatorium, now he's in jail for tried arson which result in him committing homicide in jail. I don't suppose he'll ever pop out. All of this I suppose is from smoking weed. I don't suppose it's valued at it. It influences each person in a different way.

I believe there is a market out there for what you are trying to do but you need to focus on making it look professional and presentable.

As for how much, I haven't a clue. You should take a look at some other professional fitness programs and try to gauge off them just how much you should be charging.

only if they provided the food and delivered it to my house. plans are easy, the execution is difficult. only if they exercised with me. everyone can get a personalized plan by joining jenny craig or a fitness center. now if you called and checked on them several times a day that might be worth something.
