What can I do to prepare for my weight loss surgery?

You and your expert medical care team will meet on several occasions to help you prepare for weight loss surgery.  You will work together to create a customized weight loss treatment plan designed especially for you.  While individual weight loss treatment plans are tailored to each patient, often times the steps are similar.

Your care team will encourage you to start making changes in your activity and nutrition habits that will help you prepare for weight loss surgery as well as life post-surgery.  This will help you to meet your weight loss goals safely and effectively.  Your care team will also educate you on possible nutrition deficiencies associated with surgical weight loss and tips on how you can avoid them.

We have also found that enlisting the support of family and friends can help you in a successful weight loss journey.  By involving them, they can help you to make healthy choices and keep you motivated throughout the process.
