Check out our June blog, Time to get healthy!

There is no time like the present when it comes to losing weight and changing your
lifestyle. Don’t fall into the trap of thinking that extra weight is only a problem for
“future” you and that what you do today doesn’t matter. It does matter and it is
time to get serious about losing extra weight.

Excess body fat puts stress on almost every system in the body.

If you fit this criteria, there is cause for concern.

  • A man whose waist circumference is more than 40 inches
  • A non-pregnant woman whose waist circumference is more than 35 inches
If you have more than forty pounds to lose, and you haven’t been able to maintain
a healthy weight, it’s time to consider surgical options.

Weight loss surgery can be a tool to help you get to a healthy weight. It can serve
as a platform for lifestyle change. It helps to simplify eating choices and get back
to the basics. It could be the fresh start you are looking for – that second chance.
In essence, it downsizes your stomach so the priority becomes taking in the most
essential nutrients and staying away from what your body doesn’t need.

Along with prioritizing healthy foods, weight loss surgery can help you become a
person who learns how to enjoy food. Eating slowly and focusing on the delicious
flavors and textures leaves you more satisfied at the end of the meal. Eating can
become something enjoyable instead of something that fills you with regret. It
helps to change the relationship with food by building habits that stick.

The focus is on eating only for physical hunger and avoiding eating for other
reasons. Losing weight also makes it easier to get back to physical activity that you enjoy. It’s easier to do better when you feel better, so the momentum keeps you going in a positive direction. If you are looking for a better and healthier you, today is a perfect day to start. Weight loss surgery can help you improve food choices, change your relationship with food and enjoy more physical activity. Your “future” self will thank you for getting started today on who you can become.
