Episode 184: Always Go Back to the Basics — The Bariatric Basics
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Getting used to the bariatric lifestyle following surgery can be like a full time job! There are bariatric specific vitamins to take at certain times of the day, there’s a lot of water to be consumed, more than a lot of protein to take in, movement goals to squeeze into the day, and so much more! It can be overwhelming for sure! As soon as it seems you’ve gotten into a good routine, the honeymoon bliss takes over and the surgery does its work … the weight seems to fall off and you may slack off from some of the good habits you’d gotten into. Until the worst of the worst happens and not only do you stop losing weight but there are a few pounds of regain every now and then! For many, panic sets in and they feel lost, crying, “I don’t know what to do! Where do I start?” The answer, my friends, every time, is at the beginning. Go back to the basics: the bariatric basics. That’s what this episode is all about. If you’re new to bariatric surgery or if you’re many years out from your procedure, a good review of the basics is always helpful. Let’s get started!
