Didn't have the weight loss after bariatric surgery that you wanted?

Afraid you're on the road to gaining it all back?

This quick-read book gives 7 keys for dropping your excess pounds after bariatric surgery. These keys unleash the hidden power of your motivation and fix the real reason you can’t lose the weight – your mindset. If you can place your initial skepticism aside long enough to take a good look at what’s offered in this book, you will find that you will be able to lose all the weight you want after bariatric surgery and keep it off for the rest of your life.

As people who have taken this ultimate step to improve our health and the quality of our lives – and now find ourselves struggling with weight after weight loss surgery – we are a very unique group. We have demonstrated beyond a shadow of a doubt that we are willing to go the distance to achieve the goals we set for ourselves. Yet – even after physically altering our bodies to work with us instead of against us – why are so many of us still struggling to lose weight? What is the missing ingredient that can tip the scale in our favor so we can finally enjoy the fruits of our efforts?

For us, despite all we have spent on special diets, programs, gym memberships, and yes – even surgery, none of it has bought us the true happiness we desired.

Here’s the real truth: IT’S NOT YOUR FAULT!

In fact, as post-ops we know better than anyone that weight is a more complex arrangement than just "energy in and energy out." We know that the truth is that the body is a highly adaptive and complex system of interrelated parts and functions, and that there is more to our weight story than just manipulating our food and exercise to shift our balance of calories in and calories out. Now that we have experienced the unthinkable - gaining weight AFTER gastric bypass, AFTER gastric sleeve or AFTER Lap-band surgery – we saw that we were not told THE WHOLE TRUTH.

One of the biggest problems with most traditional approaches to weight loss is that they usually approach the problem from a very negative and punitive perspective. Think about it, have you ever felt depressed and helpless around the weight situation? Many people feel depressed and helpless when they see themselves as lazy or undisciplined. As a result, using these methods alone can be very un-motivating and can themselves create chronic stress. If you’re still losing the battle with weight after gastric sleeve surgery, after gastric bypass or after lap-band can’t help but be in chronic stress.

Chronic stress and anxiety can have direct effects on the body that result in weight gain. Not only do we eat more and make less healthy food choices when we are stressed, but we also set off a series of biochemical responses that move us to increase our intake of high fat and high sugar foods (i.e. candy and desserts) that activate a pleasure response in our brain and mute our experience of stress. The cycle of on again/off again stress – as well as persistent, prolonged stress – can clearly offset our best efforts with diet and exercise.

Recent research is pointing us to a range of factors, including biomedical, environmental, motivational and genetic influences that affect how the food we eat is processed and the way our bodies utilize energy. What does that mean to you? Well, one of the most important findings has been the value of pleasure in life, which is clearly related to stress, but also to our general sense of wellness, joy and aliveness in the world. The less pleasure you derive from other aspects of life, the more likely you may be to consume excess food for pleasure. For so many of us, happiness always seems to be on the other side of weight loss, but the pleasure effect is the stress effect in reverse! Feeling great and seeking pleasure creates bio-chemicals that support weight management.
