The greatest indicator of successful weight loss after bariatric surgery is exercise. Patients who exercise regularly lose much more weight than those who do not. Surgery is not a magic bullet. You will not have surgery and instantly, without effort, and discipline, lose weight. Exercise is a vital component in your recovery, your success, and your improved health.
At The Central Baptist Weight Loss Surgery Center, we will provide you with the basic information you need to begin your exercise program. We can also refer you to our Health and Wellness team at HealthwoRx, for more personal training and guidance.
After this pre-operative visit, we hope to see you at our support group meetings at our new HealthWorx location in Lexington Green beginning December of 2009! Our Registered Dietitian, Genelle Hix and one of the HealthwoRx personal traininers will facilitate your support group meetings. (Click here to view our Support Group Calendar). After the support group meets, you can tour the facility and schedule an individual appointment with the personal trainer.
If you chose to continue exercising with our personal trainer at HealthWorx, you will receive a variety of services with your membership. Please click here to learn more about those benefits.
