Did you know that huge, rapid weight loss whether from bariatric surgery, weight loss meds or a hybrid of the two can result in a 20-25% loss of muscle mass? Did you catch that? 20-25% loss of muscle mass! Yes, they’re all the rage right now….weight loss medications also known as obesity meds and GLP-1 medications.
As medical professionals, we tend to use the term obesity medications. Why? Because obesity truly is a disease and these meds treat more than just weight with positive effects on diabetes, blood fats, blood pressure, food noise, cravings and more. Studies are finding that the use of these medications, when appropriate, in combination with bariatric surgery can result in even more long term, weight loss success.
But what about this loss of your muscle mass along with the weight? How does the loss of muscle mass affect your success long term and even your health? What do you need to know right now to preserve or increase your muscle mass so you enjoy great success? Bariatric sports dieititian Kim Tirapelle joins me to answer these questions and more. You don’t want to miss this discussion.

Let’s talk sleep. Are you dragging booty today? How many hours of sleep did you get last night? Did you know that a good night’s sleep of seven or more hours can affect your weight now and weight regain down the track? Sleep is like nutrition for your brain. Let me explain.
If you’re what’s called a short sleeper, you’re averaging 5 hours or less a night. Being a short sleeper is tied to being hungry and gaining weight. Totally the opposite of what happens when you sleep 7 or more hours a night.
Sleep improves what’s dietitians call food restraint. This means that when you’re adequately rested, you tend to have more control over what you choose to eat and when you choose to eat it. This is the opposite of what happens when you’re stressed and tired and when eating the door off the refrigerator looks like a good option. Know what I mean? The decisions you make about what to eat, when you’re sleep deprived, are not your best ones. Think about it…do you notice it to be true for you? You’re tired and you’re hungry and you tend to crave carbs.
Find out many more benefits of sleep to prevent weight gain and what you can do this week to make a difference. Listen to the podcast now.

This is an exciting time, isn’t it? You’ve had metabolic and bariatric surgery and your new transformation has begun. But who are we kidding? It can also be a time of confusion and uncertainty. What do you eat now? In the next few days? What about these first 6-8 weeks? It can be overwhelming but I’m here to help you. I have helpful tips and suggested recommendations so you get the best outcome on your new journey.
Tip 1: you will fill up much more quickly than you did before surgery. Because you don’t have a lot of room for quantity, eat your protein food first. Chew it so well that you’re like a blender and it becomes pureed similar to baby food in your mouth. You want to get in that 60-80 grams of protein a day so starting with it first helps you be successful with that daily goal. Plus protein makes you feel full and satisfied.
Tip 2: this is the time to learn to eat very slowly with a meal taking 20-30 minutes. I know, unheard of here in the US where our meals tend to be gulp and go. Taking your time lets you feel and learn fullness cues. Stop when you are full and prevent vomiting and the stretching of your pouch from overeating.
Tip 3: now is the time to separate liquids from solid food. What does that mean? You may have heard it call the 30-30 rule. It means to drink your beverages 15-30 minutes before you eat and 30 minutes after you eat. Why does this matter? Your capacity for food is much smaller and you want to meet your food and fluid goals. You will accomplish this more easily by separating liquids from food. Remember 8+ cups of water or 2 plus liters is what you are aiming for each day along with your food.

I know you may be losing your hair. Here’s some good news you’ll like. After rapid weight loss, typically from bariatric surgery, hair loss is very common. It’s not permanent and your hair should grow back.
So should you take biotin for your hair loss? Maybe a friend is taking it and swears by it. Maybe you read online that if you take biotin, you’ll have new hair growth in no time. While biotin, a B vitamin, is important for hair health, you should get enough from your bariatric multivitamin. In addition, small amounts of biotin are found in lots of different foods, especially eggs, nuts, salmon, sunflower seeds and some vegetables including sweet potatoes. Once you are back to eating a regular diet, you can include these foods that contain biotin. Even if you feel your diet is not quite there yet, consuming too little biotin may not be a problem anyway because intestinal bacteria produces biotin.
Too much biotin, and this amount has been suggested to be around 20 mg a day, interferes with the testing of thyroid function and causes false lab reports. So if you have Hashimoto’s disease for instance or take thyroid medications, you could get inaccurate results on thyroid function which could also affect medication dosage. Taking your bariatric multivitamin is typically not a problem as the amount is appropriate, probably .6 mg day versus 20 and additional supplementation is not a good idea.
I know, you want hair growth right now. I hear you so I get the interest in biotin. It feels terrifying but it’s totally normal to lose 5-15% of your hair from bariatric surgery and the rapid weight loss that follows. Typically it does’t last more than 6 months. It’s just a pain in your patootie to go thru. And 6 months seems like forever but hair goes thru cycles.
This episode also covers the reasons that hair loss happens, the 4 phases of a hair follicle and the strategies to put into place now.

How much can you drink and how fast will you become intoxicated? If you drink alcohol after surgery or you have friends or family who’ve had surgery and drink alcohol, this is must-know info.

What if you could get a ‘leg up’ on your bariatric surgery? If you had a nutrition game plan to put into action before surgery to boost your chances of success even more. Bariatric surgery is a terrific tool to help you lose weight and so much more. The surgery can improve blood pressure, diabetes, heart disease and metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease called MASLD in the medical world. It’s basically an umbrella term for medical conditions tied to a buildup of fat in the liver. You may have heard of fatty liver.
Surgery is just one of the spokes in the wheel to success. Hand in hand with surgery is your lifestyle, particularly nutrition and your willingness to make changes that become part of the way you live from now on. I’ll share a five step nutrition game plan. Follow it ahead of your surgery to put yourself in the best possible position for a successful outcome. And if you’ve already had surgery, use this game plan as a check list to see how you’re doing and what you might tweak a bit.
