BEATING WEIGHT LOSS SURGERY
Hi WLS family I know it's been a long time since I've posted or even been on the board some may not know me at all for that matter. I just wanted to leave you with something to wonder or ponder about. Did or Do you know that you can beat WLS? well if you didn't you can. especially if you go back to old eating habits. However there is a solution. All you have to do is go back to the basics of eating your 60 grams of protein before eating carbs. Make sure you get all of your liquids in (64 oz). wait at least 90 min before drinking any liquids after you eat. Remember when you eat carbs make sure it's the good carbs like fruits and vegetables. Last but not least journal what you eat on a daily basis and move your body. Well some of you may be wondering "of all the nerves!!" However, I just wanted to share with you what I learned in the WLS support group meeting on tonight It's AMAZING!!!!!! what a support group meeting can do for you. It reminds you of what you learned in the beginning of this journey and it's a lifestyle change for the rest of our lives. I will not be a statistic of gaining all the weight that I lost back!

Good for you Renee,
Even though I haven't had the surgery yet, I find it very important to continue to go to support group meetings because it help you remember certain things you might have forgotten. I have my surgery Feb 15, and I said I was going to go my support group meetings at least 6 months out of year. So that I can remember the basics. Great post!
