Got my Surgery date!
Dear Marc:
Take the time, pre-op, to become thoroughly familiar with the post-op program outlined by your doc.
Make sure you understand on a "heart" level, that the surgery is merely a tool (a highly effective one!) that reinforces weight-loss BEHAVIORS by melting away fat when you eat properly & exercise 5-7x weekly;
and regurgitating, dumping and plateauing when you try to cheat or make up your own rules.
For example, spare yourself the terror one year out of having the old cravings come back with a vengeance by NOT seeing if you'll dump by eating ice cream or drinking beer...
When you follow the program - you get back incredible energy, a body that grows lighter and lighter soooo fast, the experience of getting stronger and stronger, and a positive attitude toward yourself & your future.
All the best!
