Ever wondered how the convoluted marketing strategies of Medicare Disadvantaged Plans influence our healthcare choices? Join us as we unravel the complexities of these plans, and the limitations seniors face when choosing a Medicare plan. During a riveting general surgery marathon at Tucson Medical Center, I was reminded of how our personal health journeys intertwine with the broader healthcare narrative. We'll also celebrate life's milestones, from weddings to weight loss triumphs, and discuss maintaining muscle while you melt away the pounds. We also offer insights from our guest Elizabeth, who tackles the tough topic of obesity bias within the weight loss surgery community.
Weight regain can be a daunting prospect after the triumph of weight loss surgery. Hear the story of one individual's experience with vertical sleeve gastrectomy, her subsequent weight regain, and how GLP-1 medications like Ozempic and Mounjaro have become game-changers in maintaining control. We'll dig into the biological factors of weight control and the diverse responses to GLP-1 medications among those with and without a history of surgical weight loss. It's an eye-opening glimpse into the ongoing battle for sustained health and the critical role of medications post-surgery.
Join our conversation on the power of community post-weight loss surgery, GLP-1 medications, obesity bias, and how to preserve muscle while losing weight. We round up with a look at delicious, healthy pasta options and practical tips for preventing weight regain after gastric sleeve surgery. Tune in for a hearty dose of knowledge and motivation to fuel your journey toward a healthier you.
