You’ve had the bariatric weight-loss surgery and you are looking fabulous as you are feeling healthier, able to live a more active lifestyle, and wear more fashionable clothing.

2). Avoid the "Take-Home-Box" Overload
After you’ve had the RNY surgery, there is one thing you immediately begin to notice.. and that’s what I call the “Take-Home Box Overload”. This is what happens inside your refrigerator as a result of you brining home all of those take-home boxes from restaurants because you cannot finish the meal. Even prior to surgery, you couldn’t often finish the meal when some restaurants serve such large portions.

3). Understand the Changes You Will Experience After WLS
If you are a severely overweight person and considering Weight Loss Surgery (WLS), understand that it will take hard work and an adjustment to your daily routine in order to successfully lose weight. You will have to adapt to a completely new lifestyle and change the way you eat, what you eat and how you eat every day.
During WLS your stomach will be reconstructed into a much smaller pouch, so you will not be able to consume large quantities of food anymore without getting sick.

This “Bed-Dancing” concept often gets a few chuckles… but I want you to stay with me on this one as I explain exactly what it is (and isn’t) and how you can incorporate this in your exercise routine today.
I’ll begin by expressing how essential Bed-Dancing was in my life right after I had the RNY gastric bypass bariatric weight-loss surgery: VERY ESSENTIAL.
