RULES!

[Deelicious 17]

So I went to the pre-op class today. And they gave me these 5 general rules for success:

1. Protein first at every meal

2. Water 64oz daily

3. Exercise

4. No unplanned eating (eat every 4 hours)

5. Take Vitamin supplements daily

and follow the 30-20-30 rule!

What were/are your rules?

What is the 30-20-30 rule?

[Deelicious 17]

Wait 30 min after drinking liquids before you eat. Eat for 20 min ONLY! Even if there is food left over (Mindful eating). Wait 30 min after eating to start drinking again.

This prevents "flushing" food down your sleeve as well as more Portion Control by not "grazing".
