Today, our community story is Susan’s. She struggled with obesity, and despite a very successful bariatric surgery, she eventually regained her weight and developed type 2 diabetes. Susan bravely shared her Mounjaro journey with us. We discuss the chronic disease of obesity with Dr. Angelina, an expert in bariatric surgery, weight management, and cosmetic surgery. We revisit the connection between GLP1 and bariatric surgery. Dr. Angelina addresses common challenges post-surgery, including "food noise," weight regain factors, and transfer addiction prevention. We explore how weight can return after bariatric surgery, discuss "apron bellies," and debate the timing of skin removal surgery.
