After gastric bypass:

The first three months are a real honeymoon as the weight falls away. You will feel the first changes after discharge from hospital, then notice a miracle change in your metabolism as it begins to utilize your fat deposits. The first 15-20 or even 30 kilograms disappear, for during this period your organism is not adapted to metabolic deficiency and easily gives up the fat. Later, in a few months, the speed of weight loss decreases. This is normal: the less the excess weight, the more difficult the weight loss. Do not be discouraged, for the battle is half won.

To facilitate ongoing weight loss, exercise moderation with such high energy food as sugar, chocolate, butter. Eat plenty of protein (meat, fish, poultry) as this is necessary to rebuild your tissues.

Add some moderate physical activity to your schedule. If you can not visit a fitness center or a swimming pool, bear in mind that every little helps: take the stairs instead of the elevator, or try to run in the park. Be active. Adequate physical activity is the best natural regulator of metabolism.

By thus forcing your body to expend its strategic fat deposits, you can stabilize your weight at a desirable level in less than two years.
