Este trabajo analiza el surgimiento y el desarrollo temprano de la ocupación de dietista -antecedente inmediato de la actual ocupación de nutricionista- en la Argentina. Se observan los proyectos que dieron lugar a esta nueva ocupación -considerando cómo se concebían los requisitos de formación y las tareas que serían de su incumbencia-, el modo en que se concretaron estos proyectos y el desempeño laboral efectivo de las primeras camadas de dietistas. También, se utilizan herramientas teóricas provistas por la sociología de las profesiones con el fin de interpretar peculiaridades vinculadas con la conformación y el desarrollo inicial de esta ocupación: por un lado, que uno de sus ámbitos de intervención laboral la colocó entonces dentro de la órbita de la medicina y en un plano de subordinación; por otro lado, que en su diseño inicial se tratara de una ocupación restringida a mujeres. Asociado a estas dos características, que su emergencia se debiera a un proyecto impulsado por un médico, ocupación principalmente dominada por hombres.
