“Welcome to Weight Loss Winformation -  I’m your host, Dr. Connie Stapleton. This is episode 240.  Our topic today is GLP-1’s, Part 3. Today I’m talking with a woman who knows me better than almost anyone on the planet. Dr. Susie Matlock-Hetzel, a fellow psychologist whom I met when we went through our PhD program together more than few decades ago… Susie comes right out on this episode and announces she was morbidly obese. A surgical procedure was not an option for Susie. When she learned about the GLP-1 medications, she knew intuitively they were the “missing piece” for her. I think you’ll really love this episode as she share a lot about what we have shared together during the past 30 years. The Weight Loss Winformation Podcast gives you essential psychological information to help you lose weight and more importantly, to help keep you at a healthy weight for your body! No matter how you are working to lose weight and no matter how much weight you want to lose, Weight Loss Winformation will keep you moving in a positive direction.
