Board Certified Bariatric surgeon located in New Jersey

This web site is an extension of my practice in weight loss surgery and management that began in 1999.  I have treated over 1500 obese patients surgically for weight control and have talked with thousands more about managing their weight through diet and exercise.

I have learned a great deal by talking with and listening to my patients and their family and friends about the struggle to lose weight and then maintain that goal.  It is obvious that this is a difficult problem in America and not one that has been dealt with much success.  The diet companies understand this and design programs for short term success, with unfortunate long term failure requiring you to continually sign up or buy products to lose the same pounds over again.

 
My web sites offer free information, advanced dieting tools such as calorie counters that adjust your daily calorie needs based on slow weight loss and self maintained food databases.  By creating a method that allows you to slowly change your  eating habits while understanding the calories and nutritional content of your diet, one can be successful long term.

Long term success with weight control does not come without some struggle and sacrifice.  I have designed a program on my weight loss site www.myphonediet.com to enable people to have instant access to their diet history anywhere in the world and have access to professional guidance at a modest cost and with the utmost convenience.

Understanding the relationship between total calories eaten everyday and your weight  is the first step in taking control over your diet and health.  It is impossible to make informed choices about what to eat if you do not have the information to assist you.  By learning about nutrition and how it affects your health only then can you be able to have long term success.  I believe that my experience can help you reach your goals.
