San Francisco Registered Dietitian
Candice Danielson, RDN, CSOWM
Registered Dietitian & Board Certified Specialist in Obesity and Weight Management
I help adults use nutrition alongside GLP-1 medications, bariatric weight loss surgery, and metabolic conditions to support safe, sustainable weight loss.
-
You’re using (or considering) medications like semaglutide or tirzepatide and want guidance on:
how to eat when appetite is low or inconsistent
minimizing side effects like nausea, fatigue, or GI issues
preserving muscle mass and meeting nutrient needs
avoiding the “eat as little as possible” trap
-
You’re preparing for or recovering from bariatric surgery and want:
clear structure around protein, portions, and supplementation
support adapting to appetite and tolerance changes
long-term strategies beyond the immediate post-op phase
-
You want weight loss or metabolic improvement in the context of:
Type 2 diabetes or prediabetes
PCOS or insulin resistance
cholesterol or blood pressure concerns
My work is grounded in a few core principles that guide how we work together.
We focus on creating strategies and systems that work with your life, busy schedule, and appetite changes.
Practical
We prioritize habits and skills that support metabolic health over time. The goal is to help you feel confident maintaining progress.
Sustainable
You are an active participant in your care. Sessions are collaborative, respectful, and guided by curiosity rather than perfection. We adjust strategies together as your needs, goals, and circumstances evolve.
