Your nutritionist's an idiot. This bears repeating.
Like tylorael and tafkar have said, take her suggestions with a grain of salt and look at healthy alternatives to carbs but don't cut them out entirely. It just may mean that you might have to eat the yummiest organic whole wheat and pesto pasta on a regular basis. What a shame that would be!
Diets suck ass and make you hate eating more than anything else, and then make you snack on the most decadent foods in between your regulated meal intervals because you're dying from hunger and blandness. I personally feel that you gain more weight when you feel guilty about what you're eating, rather than just relaxing and taking things in moderation.
I still think that you should beat her about the head with a large smoked salmon so that you can knock some sense into her, and maybe knock her off her "pasta is morally evil" pedestal.
And if you cook one of those horrendous meals she suggested, for a dinner party, I'm going to refuse to come over and take you out for a sushi boat instead.
