Panhandle Weight Loss Center

Dr. Bleu and Dr. Bo talk about the farming practices across the world and why our health and wellness journey starts with understanding farming.

Dr. Blue interviews Andrew Swafford. Andrew is a sleeve patient that shares his journey to surgery and after surgery. Andrew has a unique story in that he worked in the medical device industry and was very educated on the lifestyle component of the journey (because he had to listen to us talk about it through many hours of surgery!). We hope you enjoy!

Chad Schoonover is a co-owner of Ribbonwire Ranch located on the northern part of the legendary XIT Ranch. He and his partner, Doug Lathem, have a passion for bringing high quality beef to the tables of their clients. Chad talks about the adventures and difficulties of changing practices and explains the confusion behind beef that has been labeled organic.

We all need accountability in our lives. Depending on what realm of life we are talking about that could be your spouse, a parent, a boss, or a co-worker. When it comes to our health and fitness, we commonly ignore this important element. Having somebody to check in with and keep you motivated is key!

Dr. Bo and Dr. Bleu discuss the most common surgical options for weight loss including the gastric band, gastric bypass, gastric sleeve and duodenal switch. We discuss how we chose between the surgeries and which patients do the best with each surgery.

Dr. Bleu interviews Amanda Bradford, one of our past patients. They talk about the journey to surgery and life after surgery. Amanda is over 10 years out from surgery and still going strong!

Chelsey talks with local farmer (amongst many other titles), Justin Trammell, about his passion of providing locally raised, locally produced meats by way of non-conventional agricultural practices. When we talk about being more conscious of what we eat (mindful in some circles), this is what we mean!

Dr. Bo and Chelsey share their knowledge on FIBER. Almost every American fails to get enough in their diet. The trick is wading through all the claims about how to get it! Dr. Bleu drops in at the end to wrap up our (first of a few) episode on fiber

Have you ever had a bad habit that you wanted to break or a good habit that you struggle to make an actual habit. Well, so have we! Atomic Habits gets into the science of how we break habits and how we make new habits. We discuss our big takeaways from the book but do not let this serve as the replacement for reading the book!

Dr. Bleu and Dr. Bo are on the podcast today with no agenda! They talk about general health and wellness topics and books that they are currently reading. We hope you guys enjoy!
