Thank you everyone for the responses. These are great!

Also if you have any other suggestions non-gastric bypass/Lap-Band, please feel free to post those also! E.g. general weight loss, psychology issues with weight loss, staying healthy, etc.

John I absolutely agree with the psycological issues for post-op gbs. I was prepared for melt-downs & 2+ weeks out of surgery am not able to deal with them.

As for non-surgery folks could you do exercise tips that work for everyone and just general healty lifestyle tips that apply for both surgical & non-surgical lifestyles. This one is hard for me.

God grant me the serenity
to accept the things I cannot change;
courage to change the things I can;
and wisdom to know the difference.
