DAE have athletic friends who always try to tell you you're doing it wrong and to follow their diet or training regimen?

I just recently got a dietitian to help me make healthier choices and make gradual changes that I will be easily able to maintain (entirely covered by my insurance). Happened to bring it up in conversation both when I was thinking of starting and now that I have started, and friends immediately downcast the idea that I wouldn't go to them, and that I'm wasting my time for nothing because it's "obvious" what I should be doing.

They seemed honestly upset that I didn't ask them to set up a diet plan and follow what works for them despite the fact that I just have other concerns involving health other than weight loss that I'm hoping a dietitian can help me through. I know I wont be able to stick to a strict diet plan right off the bat but want to feel as if I am making the choices to eat what I want while still being healthy, and that explanation only made them claim I'm not being dedicated enough.

This is just me ranting about my early struggles at the beginning of what will hopefully be a long journey to getting into a maintainable healthy weight I can feel good about, thanks for the outlet.
