Colleen Cook’s Rules For Reaching Goal Weight

Colleen Cook from Bariatric Support Centers International was on Weight Loss Surgery Radio last week with Cher Ewing and Jeff Cadwell. She had weight loss surgery back in the late nineties and discovered that there was no real support system in place for the patients – so she created one. Anyway, they’ve done a close look at their client’s who successfully reach their goal weights and these are the principles they’ve found in common.

Success Habits of Weight Loss Surgery Patients

1. Personal Accountability
I recognize that I alone am responsible for my successes and my failures.

2. Portion Control
I understand the importance of satiety and listen to my body’s signals.

3. Proper Nutrition
I make good healthy food choices each day.

4. Fluid Intake
I drink the right amount of the right beverages at the right time each day.

5. Regular Exercise
I have adopted the habit of exercise as part of my lifestyle.

6. Vitamins and Supplements

I take good quality vitamins each day to ensure my good health.
