Before surgery, I worked with a nutritionist who helped me to understand some basic principles about food composition and energy. Seeing the nutritionist every month helped me to be accountable. I also walked around the track at the YMCA and the local area high school. I eventually began walking around my apartment complex, which had alot of hills. After surgery, I tried to follow my surgeon's rules. I continued to walk often, and I always ate my protein first!!!! I still see a nutritionist. I also see a psychologist to deal with the emotional and psychological issues that are linked to overeating, and I go to bariatric support meetings.
