Do you feel like you just need more willpower to lose weight? Or that regaining weight means you've failed?

These are common concerns I hear from patients, and they're worth looking at differently.

As an obesity medicine physician, I know weight management involves more than simply eating less or exercising harder.

Hunger, biology, sleep, stress, medications, and other factors can influence your progress.

Here, I'm sharing five common beliefs about weight loss, weight regain, plateaus, and medical treatment—and what I want patients to understand instead.

You don't need more shame.
You need better questions and a plan that addresses your individual needs.

Which of these thoughts have you struggled with most? Comment down below ⬇️

“How much do you make as a bariatric surgeon?”

I’ve been asked this question before. But I wonder how many people would expect my answer.

Because some of the most meaningful things I make happen behind closed doors, in conversations my patients never thought they’d have.

I’ve seen people walk into my office carrying years of frustration, embarrassment, and the belief that they’ve somehow failed themselves.

And sometimes, they leave in tears.

Not because I gave them bad news.

But because, for the first time in a long time, they felt heard instead of judged.

That’s something I wish more people understood about my work.

As a bariatric surgeon and obesity medicine physician, I don’t just talk about weight loss. I help patients understand that obesity is a complex medical condition, not simply a failure of willpower.

I help them explore options they may not have known existed.

And when it’s time to make important decisions about their health, I make those decisions WITH my patients, not FOR them.

Because behind every consultation is a person who deserves more than another diet, another lecture, or another reason to feel discouraged.

So, what do I really make as a surgeon?

I help people see possibilities where they once saw dead ends.

And sometimes, that conversation is where a new chapter begins. 💚

Why do so many weight-loss plans work at first… but become harder to maintain?

You start motivated, follow the rules, see some progress, and then life happens. Your schedule changes, stress builds up, and suddenly the plan that worked before feels impossible to keep up with.

Here’s what I want you to understand: A plan that only works when life is perfect probably isn’t the right long-term plan for you.

As an obesity medicine physician, I encourage my patients to focus on building habits they can maintain, not just changes that produce quick results.

That means creating realistic routines around nutrition, physical activity, sleep, and stress management while also addressing the medical factors that may affect their weight.

Because long-term weight management isn’t about being perfect every day. It’s about having a strategy you can return to, even when life gets busy.

And remember, healthy habits are important, but some patients also benefit from medical treatment and ongoing support.

If you’ve been stuck in the cycle of losing weight and gaining it back, comment PLAN to learn more about a personalized medical weight-management approach.

GLP-1 medications are everywhere. Bariatric surgery has been an established treatment for decades. So why are so many people with severe obesity still going untreated?

With all the attention on weight-loss medications and surgery, you would think more people would be receiving medical care for obesity.

But the gap between having treatment options and actually getting treatment is much bigger than many people realize.

As an obesity medicine physician and bariatric surgeon, this is something I want more people talking about.

Obesity is a complex, chronic medical condition. Yet many people continue struggling without knowing what treatments are available, whether they qualify, or where to begin.

And here’s what I want you to understand: You don’t have to wait until you’ve exhausted every diet to have a conversation about medical treatment.

Medication isn’t right for everyone. Surgery isn’t right for everyone. But understanding your options is an important first step.

Swipe through to see what the research tells us about this treatment gap—and why it matters.

If you’ve been wondering whether medical weight management or bariatric surgery might be appropriate for you, comment CONSULT to learn more about scheduling an evaluation.

“You shouldn’t be too close with your patients.”

Well… I might have a different perspective on that. 😂

Because to me, being a good physician isn’t just about treating a medical condition. It’s about building trust, listening to people’s stories, and making sure they feel comfortable throughout their journey.

I take my responsibility as a surgeon seriously, but that doesn’t mean we can’t laugh, celebrate progress, or genuinely enjoy the relationships we build along the way.

Professionalism and compassion can absolutely go hand in hand. 💚

And seeing my patients happy, confident, and comfortable around our team? That’s one of my favorite parts of what I do.

What’s one quality you appreciate most in your doctor?

Regaining weight after bariatric surgery? Does that mean your surgery failed?

Not necessarily. And before you jump into another extreme diet or assume you need another procedure, there’s something I want you to understand.

As a bariatric surgeon, I don’t just look at the number on the scale. I want to understand WHY the weight is coming back.

Your hunger, eating patterns, medications, health changes, and sometimes even your anatomy can all play a role.

And depending on what’s driving the regain, there may be more treatment options than you realize, including medical weight management, medications, or additional procedures when appropriate.

**Weight regain isn’t a personal failure. It’s a reason to reassess your treatment plan.**

In this video, I’m sharing four things I want my patients to do—and avoid—when weight starts coming back.

If you’re experiencing weight regain after bariatric surgery, comment CONSULT to learn more about scheduling an evaluation.
