"Many people who have been through bariatric surgery and have lost weight, do not realize how easily it can be to regain that weight.  While surgeons who perform bariatric surgery start the process of change, having bariatric surgery changes the patient for the rest of his or her life. 

Most surgeons would be thrilled to follow up with their patients indefinitely, but with the volume of bariatric surgery patients in the United States today, that just is not possible. In working with many patients who have had bariatric surgery, I am dismayed at the number whose weight problems recur.

Ten Links for Life effectively fills that void.  By providing a structured method of daily living, Ten Links establishes an organized system that a post-bariatric patient can use as a roadmap to maintain the weight loss they have worked so hard to achieve.  The best part is, the roadmap has been drawn by women who have already taken the journey."  -John B.
