Two year annual check up


Today I went for my two year check up with my Surgeon... I received a clean bill of health . He gave me four habits for success
1. Always measure your meals
2. NO SNACKiNG
3. Eat protein rich meals.. Get in the 60-90 grams of protein each day.. Stop eating soft foods that are full of calories and do not satisfy you
4. Exercise and get in 64 oz of water each day

The long term effect of the gastric bypass is through food reduction! When one stops following the guidelines.. You will gain your weight back.. Follow the guidelines and you will not have to worry about regain . I have successfully maintained my weight for the last 2 years.. I must keep on pressing on!
