10 Rules for Lap Band
My husband went to see the doctor about getting lap band also. The doctor gave him a sheet that said 10 Rules for Lap Band Success and I found it VERY HELPFUL so I thought I would share his with some everyone.
1. Eat only 3 small meals per day (300 to 500 calaries per meal)
2. Eat slowly and chew thoroughly ( Spend 30 min per meal and chew 15-20 times per bite)
3. Stop eating as soon as you feel full
4. Do NOT drink while you are eating
5. Do not eat between meals
6. Eat only good quality food ( low fat, low sugar, fruit veg, low fat meats, low fat dairy and whole grain)
7. Eat fibrous food with caution (raw fruit and veg., dry meats and bread)
8. Drink 64 oz of fluid per day
9. Exercise at least 30 min. per day
10. Attend Meetings/ Appointments
I am so looking forward to the journey and I am so happy my husband will be doing this with me....:smile2:
