Ginger Rock, bariatric clinical coordinator at Northside Hospital Atlanta and a long-term bariatric patient, shares practical tips for maintaining weight after bariatric surgery. After experiencing weight gain related to emotional eating, she demonstrates weekly meals that are nutritious, protein-packed and easy to prepare.
Evidence-based research shows that patients who see dietitians before and after surgery have the best outcomes. Tracking everything eaten and drunk in apps such as MyFitnessPal or Baritastic can give dietitians valuable information to make personalized adjustments. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle after bariatric surgery is a lifelong commitment.
