Essential Nutrition Tips for Success
Key principles that will help you succeed at every stage of your journey
Protein First, Always
Make protein your priority at every meal. Aim for 60-80g daily to maintain muscle, heal properly, and stay satisfied.
Stay Hydrated
Drink 64+ ounces of water daily, but not with meals. Wait 30 minutes before and after eating to drink.
Eat Slowly
Take 20-30 minutes per meal. Chew thoroughly and put your fork down between bites. This prevents overeating.
Take Your Vitamins
Daily multivitamin, B12, calcium, and iron are essential for life. Your smaller stomach needs supplementation.
Avoid Problem Foods
Skip carbonated drinks, sugary foods, fried items, and tough meats. They can cause discomfort or dumping syndrome.
Listen to Your Body
Stop eating when satisfied, not full. Pay attention to what foods work for you and which ones don't.
