Developing healthy habits and staying committed to your new lifestyle after bariatric surgery is vital for continued success. That's why we provide the REALIZE mySUCCESS™ Web-based clinical support tool. It starts before surgery and keeps you connected to your bariatric team, especially for the first three critical years—so you're not on your own.

Through REALIZE mySUCCESS™, you and your surgeon will create a tailored plan to help you develop healthy habits in the areas of nutrition, physical activity, and emotional well-being. Unlike My LAP-BAND^® Journey, REALIZE mySUCCESS™ enables your doctor to monitor your progress—and step in when needed to provide guidance and help keep you on track. This level of support is especially important for the first three years after surgery, as you adjust to your new lifestyle.

Patients who regularly use the REALIZE mySUCCESS™ Web-based clinical support tool lose an additional 10.4% of their excess body weight after 6 months compared to those who do not.³²

10.4% Greater Weight Loss for Regular Users at 6 Months After Surgery³²

Support is at the heart of REALIZE mySUCCESS™—and goes far beyond the checklists and reminders that make up other online programs, such as My LAP-BAND^® Journey.

Our clinical support tool has been developed in collaboration with leading international healthcare experts, fitness professionals, dietitians, and psychologists who specialize in behavior modification.

With this unique support tool you can:

• Create a personalized eating and exercise plan that you can adapt to fit your changing lifestyle
• Get and stay motivated and track your improvement through goals, charts, photos, and more
• Communicate with your surgeon
• Connect with other patients and healthcare professionals to share tips
