Nicole & Jason – Eating habits

Nicole & Jason – Eating habits

by Dr. Tom Lavin / Tuesday, 20 August 2019 / Published in Patient Stories

Nicole and Jason live in New Orleans where food is a way of life. In New Orleans, people make lunch plans at breakfast. After Nicole and Jason underwent the Laparoscopic Sleeve, food became more of a health sustaining feature and less of a social necessity. This isn’t to say Nicole and Jason stopped socializing over food; it is simply less food and more conversating now. Moreover, Nicole and Jason started working through lunch rather than, like most New Orleanians, going out for a three-course lunch. Instead of feeling bloated and exhausted after lunch, Nicole and Jason feel energized and ready to conquer the afternoon. 

These kinds of eating habit changes lead to the incredible weight loss that Nicole and Jason have experienced. After the procedure, Jason immediately began to notice the mass of his body shrinking. In addition, he finally began to see the results of his workouts. For Nicole, it was less than a month before she needed to shop for new, smaller clothes. She immediately began to feel more confident.
