When it comes to weight loss, whether you’re considering bariatric surgery or just making healthier lifestyle changes, one of the simplest, most effective tools is a food journal. 🫑🍎🫐🍓🌽

Writing down what you eat helps you:
- See exactly what (and how much) you’re eating
- Spot habits you didn’t realize you had (like mindless snacking)
- Stay accountable to yourself and your goals
- Understand how certain foods make you feel, physically and emotionally
- Celebrate progress and make adjustments where needed

Many people are surprised by how much a simple pen and notebook (or an app) can help them feel in control again. Your health, your journey, UK HealthCare is here every step of the way. 💙

🥗 Find your balance with the Hunger Scale!
Your stomach is smaller after surgery, so tune in to your body’s cues.

Stop eating when you feel comfortably full (around a 5–6 on the hunger scale). Overeating can lead to discomfort, while mindful eating helps with long-term success 💪💜

Use this hunger scale to help balance your lifestyle!
1️⃣ Starving, weak, dizzy
2️⃣ Extremely hungry – cranky, low energy, lots of stomach growling
3️⃣ Pretty hungry – stomach is growling a little
4️⃣ Starting to feel a little hungry
5️⃣ Satisfied – neither hungry nor full
6️⃣ A little full – pleasantly full
7️⃣ A little uncomfortable
8️⃣ Feeling stuffed
9️⃣ Extremely uncomfortable – stomach hurts
🔟 So full you feel sick
