The success of any weight loss surgery depends on what you do after surgery. It is critical for long-term weight loss that the patient understands that any surgery is only a tool to help lose weight and maintain weight loss.
To ensure long-term success, patients need to follow all the recommendations that the surgical weight loss team gives them while also participating in activities to help achieve and maintain long-lasting weight loss.
Support is an important part of the weight loss journey. There are two online support groups available and many resources available online.
