You may want to look up the difference between a "nutritionist" and a "Registered Dietitian [RD]." Some of the former know their stuff, but there are no standards for using the title. That is, any imbecile can hang a "nutritionist" shingle and perhaps be dangerous in the process. I like to think that anyone working in a bariatrics practice is an RD.

I've learned some other abbreviations along the way. CW = current weight, SW = surgery weight, HW = highest weight, NSV = non-scale victories (like smaller clothes size). Hope this helps.

Oh, how I wish that was the case. I got referred to a NUT who was a complete nut CASE.

Yup, that's why an RD is the reliable route. A NUT in its SHELL can be a bad thing.
