L.E.A.P. (Learning Everything Again Program)
We recognize that loosing the weight is just the beginning. Staying on tract is the more challenging part of the journey. We have seen over time that patients who do the best are the ones that continuously put into practice the basic tenants of weight loss day after day. From time to time we need to be reminded of the basics. Out of this need we have developed an in-depth program to re-educate our patients.
The L.E.A.P. (Learning Everything Again Program) is designed for:
- Patients soon after surgery
- Patients Years from Surgery
- Patients who did not have their surgery with us
- Patients who want to loose more weight or simply need some motivation
During this Day long seminar (held on a Saturday every few months) we focus on all areas of a successful weight loss plan:
- Weight Loss Surgery Basics: how it works and why it might not
- Nutrition
- Shopping and reading Labels
- Exercise and Developing an effective workout program
- Psychology of staying on track and being motivated
- Behavior: Positive and Negative Thinking
The program is open to anyone who feels like they need a little help regardless of where or who performed your procedure. For more information please contract the Augusta Bariatric Support Group Leader, Carla Harrison cdharr@hotmail.com
