Top 3 Tips For Success

Start learning to pay attention to your body. Eating by schedule is really good at first, but over time, need to learn the queues that tell you "enough"

Forget about trying to be "full" eat until you are satiated or no longer hungry. It is possible to stretch this new tummy out and we want to try to minimize that.

Follow the basic rules - Water, Protein and increase activity; Whenever you aren't getting the results you want, go back to those basics and make sure you haven't started drifting away from them.

Work out BEFORE SURGERY. START NOW. Then after, once your DR. says ok...you will already be ready...it will already be a part of your life. You will lose muscle (which is ok because you don't need all that muscle since you won't weight as much) but you don't want to lose too much. Your Protein supplements may not be enough so you have to make sure you are building and maintaining as much muscle as you can through excersize. I had a HUGE BUTT. Didn't work out...It is GONE! I MEAN GONE. I am a flat pancake...DO YOU WANT TO BE A FLAT pancake This is my biggest regret.
