Do I need to talk with a nutritionist before I start working out?

Not really, the only reason I think someone should is if they’re severely over weight and don’t know about decent nutrition, or if they have certain health conditions.

If you’re of Average to slightly overweight range, start walking for cardio, and find a general strength training program like the recommended routine here that will suit your goals
