Missed you all at PRMI

We had a great session at PMRI last night.  Gabrielle, the Registered Dietitican at PMRI, conducted an interesting and updated session.  Couple of things to keep in mind from recent studies.  Those with the most success attend support meeting, keep appointments with the nutritiionist and doctors, keep a food diary, and exercise.   Those people that followed the guidelines lost more than 127 pounds on average over a five year period, vs. 100 pounds for those not following the guidelines.  Also follow up care is much more important for gastric banding. 

Good way to start the new year!

I think she was a different person than who I heard speak two weeks ago. I have a nutrition class in the AM, and Life Skills in the PM. Too bad I live and work in Newark lol Wish I could just knock both out at the same time, but oh well. The prep is not for our convienence. If it were to be easy, everyone would be doing it. I truely believe that only the determined patients make it, and have the best success.
