I feel left out - I never got a NUT. Is it because I was self-pay with the cheapest doctor I could find in my area?

I have one, but I was only required to see her once and that was it. I haven't been in touch with her since then.

Probably... I have one at the surgeons office that I see every few months now, but she really doesn't help that much...or maybe I haven't felt the need for her. Between the sites here and the monthly bariatric meetings I attend, I get a LOT of nutritional info/insight... so you are not really alone on this!

I don't have one. It's optional @ my Surgeons office.

We have a thread full of resources for those that don't. Check out the link in my signature.

I never saw a NUT either, I am cash pay also, so I think they do things differently for us. I would love to see a NUT. The doctor never mentioned a goal weight, and told me not to worry about exersice yet. I am 9 weeks out, and since 2 weeks out I felt great . I never felt like I had surgery other than the scars on my stomach.
