For many bariatric patients, learning how and what to eat after surgery is one of our largest struggles. We might have known how to eat a certain number of calories, but most of the time, those calories did not align with our goals. Learning how, why, and what to eat is our first struggle and one that often lasts quite some time.

In this episode, we sat down with Dr. Matt. Weiner, a bariatric surgeon, and author from Tucson, Arizona, to talk about bariatric eating before and after surgery. He has developed his own bariatric eating protocol called a Pound of Cure, and we wanted to know what it is all about. He is also a strong advocate for weight loss medication being used as a part of a patient's treatment plan, and we wanted to know more about this emerging facet of obestiy treatment.
