I heard people say there is a honeymoon period after surgery, what does that mean?
We sometimes consider the first 6 months to a year the honeymoon period. The reason is people tend to be very focused on what they are doing and follow the rules; however they do not always embrace the changes that they have made for a lifetime. They can find themselves falling back into old habits. Eating healthy, learning to listen to your body, taking responsibility for your choices and regular exercise is a life long commitment. You can think of the surgery as a tool to assist you in these life long changes for healthy life long success.
