"This morning, after my surgery and years of using my surgery as a TOOL not a solution, I am wearing a pair of size 6 jeans, I no longer have high blood pressure, my blood sugar is in the normal range or below, my aches are only related to my age not my weight and I am the normal exhausted that a 6th grade teacher and mom of a special needs child would be." -Valerie Adams

Intermittent fasting can seem like a daunting task to take on, but it can really help you lose weight! If you're having weight loss surgery soon, you should plan to incorporate IF into at least the first few months of your recovery. During this time, it will be easier to make IF a habit since you won't feel hunger the way you used to!

Vitamins are a very important part of your weight loss diet and nutrition plan, and they are especially critical after bariatric surgery. Because you can only eat three small meals a day, choosing your foods carefully or taking the recommended dose of vitamin supplements after your weight loss procedure is necessary to help your body get proper nutrition. If you want more information on how to get these vitamins in your diet and what happens if you don't get enough, head over to the Learning Center tab on our website!
