Today I am joined by weight loss surgeon Simon Monkhouse. In our fascinating conversation Simon helps us navigate the different weight loss surgical options, as well as emphasising the importance of an holistic approach to a successful outcome for bariatric patients. One area of which is mindful eating.
We discuss the complex nature of obesity, the damage done by dieting to our natural weight set point and metabolism, and how surgery interrupts and resets the body to help people suffering with obesity reconnect with their hormones to eat more normally and lose weight.
It's a really enlightening conversation which may answer several questions you have about this huge topic. As Simon says, we'd need 24 hours to talk about it properly!
