  12. ok after reading lots of post here about gaining weight back. ive narrowed down the top important rules for this surgery. keep in mind its my opioion and im not giving advice or asking for advice, its just a thought #1 eat protien first (very important) #2 keep carbs low #3 drink Water or liquids all day long. dont drink and eat at the same time. #4 no grazing #5 eat at scheduled times.(if i want dessert i will include it with my dinner) exp 2 oz meat, 1/4 cup veggie, dessert that means no carbs with my dinner. #6 excersise excersie and weight training (thanks bean) it was just a thought i had and i wil try to follow these points not rules, rules suck
