November Gastric Bypass Weight Loss Support Group Recap

Monday, December 1, 2008 by Alvin Furiya

Sorry for the dealy in posting our gastric bypass weight loss support group meeting recap from November. During this time of the year it is easy to lose track of time!

Did you know that the average American packs on about of 10 to 15 pounds between Thanksgiving and New Year’s? During the holiday season, it is easy to get off track, especially when holiday treats taunt us at work, at home and at social events.

The holidays are about celebrating with family and friends, but these celebrations often involve foods that are high in calories and short on nutrition. The typical holiday meal can have up to 3,000 to 4,000 calories. However, eating healthy and maintaining an active lifestyle doesn’t mean you have to take the joy out of the holiday season. 

Later in the week, I will post some easy tips to help you get through the holiday's without packing on the pounds.

Remember, Clarian Bariatrics will provide monthly support group for gastric bypass weight loss surgery patients on the third Wednesday of each month from 6:00 to 7:30 p.m.  Patients may bring family and/or support members to the meetings. Next mont's topic is "What is and how to prevent maladaptive eating?" This will be held on December 17 at Clarian Bariatrics. See you there!
