Which two documents must a soldier bring to the dietitian appointment for nutrition counseling?

• A. Copy of the commander's memorandum requesting nutrition counseling
• B. Soldier Action Plan to the dietitian
• C. Both documents
• D. ABCP progress log

Answer: (C)

When you go to a dietitian for nutrition counseling, you need both an official referral and a concrete plan to follow. The commander's memorandum requesting nutrition counseling serves as the formal referral and authorization from the chain of command, ensuring the appointment is sanctioned and aligned with the Army’s programs. The Soldier Action Plan, created with the dietitian, lays out specific goals, dietary changes, and a timeline you’ll work on together. Bringing these two documents gives the dietitian everything needed to tailor guidance to you and to coordinate with command expectations. The ABCP progress log is useful for monitoring weight and body fat over time, but it isn’t required for the nutrition counseling appointment itself.
