Here, we will dive into the "all-or-nothing" mindset that often plagues the quest for sustainable living after weight loss surgery. Bariatric patients often find themselves caught in a cycle of either following a super-restrictive diet or giving into old, unhealthy eating habits because of feeling overwhelmed and deprived. This, in turn, triggers emotional eating, binge eating, or neglecting critical nutritional guidelines altogether. Exploring the “all-or-nothing" mindset can be critical for achieving long-term success in the weight loss journey. The balanced mindset truly matters- a balanced approach to nutrition and exercise, with self-compassion and mindful choices, is the foundation for sustained long-term weight loss success, health, and well-being without extreme measures.

BIO: Monica Weaver, a bariatric surgery survivor, underwent RNY surgery 21 ½ years ago

and embarked on a journey filled with ups and downs. After experiencing initial success with RNY surgery, she faced the challenge of regaining weight over the years due to an unhealthy relationship with food, going back and forth between extremes in the “all or nothing” mindset.

Her perseverance led her to discover the “balanced mindset,” allowing her to lose the regain and reach her goal of losing 153 pounds twenty years post-surgery without needing revision surgery. Today, Monica enjoys food freedom and has learned that her weight struggles weren’t her fault; it was a lack of knowledge about sustainable nutrition. Her inspiring story is a beacon of hope, proving that embracing balance can lead to lasting change and a fulfilling life after bariatric surgery.
