Keys to Weight Loss Success

Tuesday, July 21, 2009 by Traci Baker
Are you a post-op bariatric surgery patient who has obtained/maintained your weight loss goal?  What has made you successful with your weight loss?  Do you struggle with the idea of indulging yourself with your favorite pre-surgery food/dessert because you want to reward yourself?  When those thoughts consume your mind and you start imagining what those foods taste like, count to ten, take a deep breath and think about the following:
 
  • Am I going down that old familiar path of bad habits?
  • Where did those habits lead me?
  • Did those habits play a part in my excess weight gain?
  • If I start eating the same things that I did pre-surgery will my weight loss success continue or will I re gain weight?
  • Am I truly sabotaging my self and is it worth it after all I have been through?
 
Embrace your new tool by eating less and eating healthier.  Take this time to discover new foods, learn to cook healthier for you and your family, find new places to eat and make an overall healthier lifestyle change.  Those are the keys to success. 
 
Remind yourself that "YOU" deserve a better quality of life!
