Meeting Digests
What follows below is a digest of one of our support group meetings. The support group digests are primarily meant as educational aids for patients who are out of area.
Meeting Topic: Regulate Your Fat Intake
Meeting Date: January 6, 2003

 

Regulate your fat intake

To keep fat intake within the 20 percent recommended level, reduce intake of cheese, dairy products with fat, salad oils, butter, and mayonnaise. 

Also be aware that there are two kinds of fat: visible and invisible.  Visible fate is obvious; invisible fat occurs in all vegetables, grains, nuts, and eggs to name a few.

Choose to be proactive in restaurant.

Choose to avoid fast foods.

Choose to purchase non-fat products.

Remember that you need to take responsibility for your food choices regardless even though you’ve had gastric bypass surgery.
