prior to your weight loss operation allows for an easier
transition to the post-bariatric lifestyle, and is even
associated with faster recovery times.
In addition to these lifestyle habits, there are several
other factors that you will need to address prior to your
operation. You will need to have a family member at the
hospital with you before and after your operation, and will
require assistance getting home.
Once home, you should have someone staying with you or
nearby to reduce your need to move as your body initially
recovers and you cope with any post-operative pain.
Be careful to follow Dr. Choi’s instructions as closely as
possible.
