How did I get here? I’m guessing you didn’t grow up wanting to have the disease of obesity as part of your adult life! And if you have comorbid health issues associated with your obesity, I’m pretty certain you ask yourself the question, how DID I get here? Well, the chronic disease of obesity is a complicated one. Some of the things that lead to obesity you have had no control over… your genetics, what you were fed as a child, if you have illnesses that contribute to weight gain or if you take medications that lead to weight gain. Be compassionate with yourself about those things. And be diligent about taking personal responsibility for the things you can control – your personal health habits. In this episode we talk about the issues contributing to obesity and what you can do to limit the effects of the disease, even if you are genetically predisposed to it or come from a family where you learned really unhealthy eating behaviors! You CAN manage this dreaded disease and work toward the life you dream of living! Let’s get going!

Alcohol… a substance consumed by most people, to include those who are having or have had a surgical bariatric procedure or may be on GLP-1 medications. In this episode, Dr. Susan Mitchell, a PhD educated bariatric-specific registered dietician joins me in talking about how the consumption of alcohol affects those who have had bariatric surgery. I talk about information specifically related to the use of alcohol for those who are taking GLP-1 medications, as well. It’s critical to understand how having bariatric surgery and/or taking GLP 1-s interacts with alcohol so that you can make wise choices if you opt to drink. Listen in and learn lots from the great information contained in this episode of BariAftercare, the Podcast!

Last week I took you for a stroll down the Memory Lane of fad diets over the past century and ended up at what is clearly NOT a fad in the world of weight loss: the GLP-1 medications. In this episode I share most of what Dr. Sanjay Gupta and the people he interviewed about the GLP-1’s said about these medications that are now, and I quote, “the biggest class of drugs in the developed world.” Dr. Gupta recently did an interview with the hosts of a local, and syndicated Altanta-based morning radio show a few days prior to his year-long investigative report on GLP-1’s which aired on CNN. The information in the documentary answers a lot of common questions people have about the medications and the ramifications of taking them. Listen in and get reliable information about the GLP-1 medications from the well-respected Dr. Sanjay Gupta. Let’s get started!

GLP’s have taken the world by storm and are being used for weight loss by people who medically qualify for them and by people who well… found a way to get them, whether they formally “qualify” for them or not. Weight loss methods date back … probably as far as time… In this episode, I highlight some of the more popular ways people have used to lose weight over the past century. THEN I talk about the GLP’s and more importantly, what is common to each and every type of weight loss when it comes to weight maintenance.

It’s definitely not only your body that changes following significant weight loss! In fact, most areas of your life are affected when you lose weight. Think about it… in addition to improvements in physical health, people who lose weight get out and participate in more of what life has to offer. They become more engaged in community activities, travel on trains, planes, and…a lot of cruise ships, attend concerts and go to amusement parks. Their relationships often change as well. This includes friendships, relationships with co-workers, immediate and extended family members, and often… with romantic partners. Reasons for changes in romantic relationships following weight loss are varied and will be discussed in this episode, along with how dating after weight loss is different than dating prior to weight loss. Be sure to listen to the anecdote about a post-op who decided to have a minimum of 50 first dates! Let’s get going!

In today’s episode, I’m talking about we start developing our relationship with food during our first days of life! By the time we’re three years old, our belief in our ability to trust ourselves has already begun. Trusting ourselves with food is an issue many people struggle with in their adult lives … do I really trust myself to make healthy choices most of the time? Do I trust myself to stop eating when I am satisfied? Do I trust myself to stick to my grocery list when I go to the store? Do I trust myself enough to have trigger foods in my house? Each stage of our development is critical in determining how we act as adults, not just with food but in our relationships with others and how we feel about ourselves. Today I’ll explain one prominent theory about social and emotional development and of course, will tie it all back into our relationship with food! Let’s go!

In today’s 200th episode, I pick up where we left off last week and clearly define and describe the remaining 8 principles of Intuitive Eating as outlined in the book Intuitive Eating: A Revolutionary Anti-Diet Approach, 4th edition, by Evelyn Tribole and Elyse Resch. Last week I spent a lot of time on the first two principles in great detail as they lay the foundation for the remaining principles. There is a lot of great information in this book and as I have said, I like the theory of Intuitive Eating and for those who have not had a surgical procedure to treat their obesity and for people who don’t have a complicated mess of a relationship with food … however few in number they may be… intuitive eating is a great way to have a healthy relationship with food! Listen in… take what you like – and leave the rest! Let’s get started!

Last week I had a fun discussion with Shea Quinn, the newest peer mentor for the full BariAftercare online program. Shea and I discussed intuitive eating and how this eating theory fits, or may not fit, persons who have had a surgical procedure to treat the disease of obesity. I got questions from listeners after the podcast dropped, asking what, exactly, intuitive eating means. Oops – apparently we forgot to clearly define intuitive eating! Because intuitive eating is a prominent topic for those who have been chronic dieters, I decided it would be a good idea to clearly define and describe the principles of Intuitive Eating as outlined in the book Intuitive Eating: A Revolutionary Anti-Diet Approach, 4th edition, by Evelyn Tribole and Elyse Resch. In this episode I’ll highlight the first two principles of Intuitive Eating described by the authors. This information is relevant to anyone who has hopped on and off the dieting bandwagon for years or maybe even decades! So share it with those you know who fit this description! Let’s get started and next week, I’ll review the remaining principles of intuitive eating.

Intuitive Eating… sounds, well… intuitive, instinctive, automatic. And it is! When we’re infants, anyway…. We are built to eat when we’re hungry and to stop eating when we are physically satisfied. By the time we’re adults, intuitive eating has been interfered with in a whole lot of unnatural ways. We don’t just eat when we’re physically hungry… we eat because someone brought treats to the office and the treats are just there… to be eaten, whether we’re hungry or not! We eat – or don’t eat – based on the messages we got at home, which had nothing to do with whether or not we were hungry or physically satisfied … “Eat everything on your plate,” or “Do you really need to have a second helping of that?” And many of us eat in response to unpleasant emotions in an attempt to avoid feeling something we do not want to feel. And emotional eating has nothing to do with physical hunger. Re-learning to eat intuitively is a great goal… and a very lofty one if you’ve struggled with the disease of obesity, have a history of yo-yo dieting, are an emotional eater, have an addiction to food or certain food groups. Listen to the reasons Intuitive Eating is great in theory and very much worth working toward… and listen also to the reasons it may not be your first goal after having bariatric surgery.

Did you know that approximately 20% of women suffer with PCOS, or polycystic ovarian syndrome? It affects women of all sizes and shapes and races. For those who also suffer from obesity, having PCOS makes it very difficult to lose weight without intervention. Fertility can also be affected by PCOS and obesity. In this episode, Kate Fuss, an extraordinarily talented PA in the field of bariatrics, interview a renowned Reproductive Endocrinology and Infertility physician, Dr. Carter Owen, about the complex and interrelated issues of PCOS, fertility, insulin resistance and myriad of issues associated with these struggles. Listen in and learn about how these medical complications are related to obesity, weight loss and fertility.

Individu – WHAT? Yeah… it’s a big, fancy psychological word… individuation. But it’s a word worth knowing and a process well worth going through! Why, you ask? Because individuated people know a lot of things: they know who they are, what their purpose is, what they want, how they feel, what they think, and what they are willing to do and what they are not willing to do… WITHOUT WORRYING what others will think of them. And THAT means, if you are willing to work toward being an individuated person, you’ll do things like set healthy boundaries with yourself and other around food, you will follow commitments you make to yourself to exercise, you will decide what people are healthy for you to be with, and you will avoid emotional eating and addictive behavior. AND there’s MORE! Listen in and learn what it means to individuate, how to do so, and how this will help you in your bariatric journey!

I saw something on Instagram that caught my eye and am I ever glad it did! The reason is that whatever it was (and I honestly don’t remember what it was that I saw) led to this great interview with Jared Gleaton! Jared is a man who knows what it is like to absolutely love food and how food interacts with every one of our senses! He also knows what it is like to carry excess weight. Jared lost 175 pounds in a year’s time and has maintained that weight loss for several years. Get this! Jared maintains a healthy weight and continues to enjoy every kind of food. He knows the art of savoring food. Jared finds immense pleasure in the tastes and textures of food. And Jared knows the importance of developing a healthy lifestyle that INCLUDES enjoying the exquisite pleasure of food. Listen in and learn how YOU can do the same!

She’s back with us! Katie Chapmon, who helped me – and hopefully you – better understand some very important information about our gut biome is here with more great information! People had questions after listening to the first episode on the gut biome and wanted more information! Katie enthusiastically shares, in this episode, more fascinating education about how our gut biome interacts with hormones, how insulin resistance and the gut biome intersect, and how medications (to include antacids) change the gut biome in ways that affect our system and our health! And there’s more! So much more! Take a listen. I hope this conversation will get your wheels turning like it has mine… and leave me wanting even more information about this powerful biological ecosystem: our gut biome!

Anyone with a chronic disease knows that a host of factors have collided to result in their having that disease. Obesity being a classic example. Addiction, hypertension and heart disease being others. In many cases, there is a genetic predisposition for a disease and factors in the environment along with personal choices lead to the disease taking root in our lives and causing us problems! While we are not responsible for the genetics that predisposed us to a particular disease, we are 100% responsible for managing our disease… or not! We impact, to a large part, the impact the disease will have on our lives. As one of my heroes, Andy Stanley says… and I paraphrase… when we are irresponsible in our lives, the consequences of our irresponsibility eventually become the Responsibility of others… most often, the people we love… and that’s usually not a good thing! Let’s talk about how to continue to take responsibility for all of the important things in our lives!

In life, when we make changes there are often things we gain and things we lose. A new job may mean the loss of some free time or the loss of a previous job you really liked. The new job also brings gains: perhaps an increase in salary, additional education about your profession, and hey – maybe even a new wardrobe! Bariatric surgery most certainly brings losses and gains into your life… the loss of some favorite foods perhaps, or the loss of the emotional comfort you got from food. The weight loss provides gains in mobility, improvements in health and the opportunity to engage in activities you enjoy! Gains and losses. Worth thinking about! And that’s what this episode is all about! Let’s get started!

The last three episodes of the podcast have focused on Diane Petrella’s fantastic book, Healing Emotional Eating for Trauma Survivors. The core of the information in these episodes has been trauma resulting from childhood neglect or abuse. There is a great deal of misunderstanding when it comes to what trauma is exactly … what kinds of actions or behaviors define neglect and what specifically counts as abuse? Far too many people who have experienced neglect or abuse as children are not emotionally ready or prepared to acknowledge this and remain in denial about having experienced either themselves. And one of the worst consequences of having been neglected or abused in childhood is becoming an adult who repeats the pattern in that they often neglect or abuse themselves and sometimes others, as well. Let’s dig in and get some clarification on these murky topics and see how, if left unaddressed, childhood neglect and trauma can interfere with weight maintenance following surgery and can decrease overall happiness.
