The Bariatric Blueprint
Maggie Hills
When you realize bariatric surgery is more than eating your protein...
If you travel towards an unknown destination, would you rather turn on your GPS knowing which way to go – or would you just start driving “hoping” you’ll turn up in the right place?
Having bariatric surgery is like unraveling a blueprint, finding new ways to structure your life afterwards. Because you’re bound to run into tons of questions that need answers:
"Why do I feel hungry one day, and am completely full the next?"
"Why does my weight stall and should I do something about it?"
"What can I do about hair loss, dumping syndrome and “the foamies?”
"What are the facts about oral health and tailbone pain?"
