Free to Live a Healthy, Vibrant Life
If you are like most people who make the major decision to have bariatric surgery, you have tried everything else first. You hope bariatric surgery will improve your health and energy. Yet without the additional tool of mindful eating, bariatric surgery can feel like a permanent diet that continues to consume your life. Learning to eat mindfully allows you to think about eating when you need to and free up your energy and attention to focus on living in between!
We can help you adjust to your new normal!

What others have said about this class…
Dr. May is the Mindful Eating Whisperer! I wasn’t sold on this when I started, but I was intrigued, and desperate to see if after over 40 years of dieting, starvation, eating disorders and bariatric surgery, and regain, if I could even remotely have a chance at having a normal relationship with food. At the end, my answer is yes.
This class needs to be taught in all bariatric centers. I am grateful and thankful to have found this now in my life. But man, if I had taken this class 20 years ago!
