Learning to eat intuitively after years of struggling with obesity can be a real challenge for patients. This week, we had Kelly Broadwater, LPA, LCMHC, CEDS-C on the show to talk about intuitive eating and how it impacts bariatric patients. She explains why it is so hard for adults to eat intuitively and at what point bariatric patients should start implementing intuitive eating. This is such a great episode for those who are struggling with food decisions! Pass it along to your patients! https://lnkd.in/dd2sD7yw For patients who would thrive with additional support before or after surgery, have them check out the BariNation podcast and options available in our membership community.

Do you have patients who think adding exercise into their routine after surgery is the key to success in weight loss? This week, clinical exercise and fitness professional Jaime Rodriguez joins the show to discuss post-surgery weight loss and the effects of movement and exercise. JJ discusses how to approach a fitness, health, and movement routine, the differences between the three, and what will be most impactful. He also describes how to create goals that align with what you are trying to do and why one person’s fitness routine isn’t the answer for the next person.

Are you or your patients unclear about what life might look like after bariatric surgery? Or do your patients have high expectations that all of your struggles will be cured post-op? In our bariatric support group meetings, we often have people with unclear expectations or even disappointment when it comes to their post-op results. This week, Dr. Mimi Tan joins us to discuss the most common unrealistic expectations people have and how to approach surgery realistically. Dr. Tan explains how she prepares her clients pre-op, and we discuss the fear of failure that some people might experience after surgery. Tune in to learn more about expectations and what life after surgery may look like. Check out our membership if you or your patients want support on your Bariatric journey!

Welcome to the very first professionally produced episode of the BariNation Podcast! Your hosts, April Williams, Jason Smith, and Natalie Tierney (she/her), are thrilled to embark on this journey with you. In this episode, we have the pleasure of speaking with Dr. Carl Pesta, TREO Foundation President, American Society For Metabolic And Bariatric Surgery (ASMBS) member, and a renowned bariatrics expert. Dr. Pesta begins by discussing the critical markers of obesity. He then delves into various preliminary approaches to overcoming obesity, including bariatric surgery, and highlights the cultural impacts of these approaches. The conversation continues with an in-depth look at post-surgery medical approaches, weight loss statistics, the safety of bariatric procedures, insurance considerations, and the importance of patient readiness for surgery. Finally, Dr. Pesta leaves us with an essential tip: don’t give up. Take the first step and commit to weight loss for long-term good health. This is a fantastic episode to pass along to patients wondering if bariatric surgery is the right next step for them. #AntiObesity #BariatricSurgery #WeightLoss #WeightLossSurgery #FoodAddiction #Disease #BariatricHealth #WeightlossJourney #BariNationPodcast #DrPesta #Diabetes #AntiObesityMedications #EndoscopicInterventions #asmbs #treofoundation https://lnkd.in/dA9e-Rkn
