2024/11/20

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...

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 include...

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? D...

2024/10/30

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 Intui...

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 t...

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 – ...

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 ...

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 pe...

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 ma...

2024/09/11

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% ...

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 weigh...

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 emotio...

Thinking about change and creating change are two different things, as most of us have figured out! Sometimes we talk about making changes but maybe we’re not ready to actually follow through with the changes!

It can be overwhelming for sure!
