August 27, 2025 Episode 243: GLP-1’s, Part 7. Dr. Daniel Kaufman on Skin Removal Following Weight Loss
“Welcome to Weight Loss Winformation - I’m your host, Dr. Connie Stapleton. This is episode 243. Today’s discussion with plastic surgeon Dr. Daniel Kaufman isn’t directly related to GLP-1 medications. Yet significant weight loss by any means sometimes leads to body reconstruction. To that end, this episode wraps up our series on GLP-1 agonists! Much to many a person’s chagrin, when they lose a significant amount of weight in a short time, they are sometimes left with maybe a little bit – or maybe quite a bit of loose skin. Some people opt to have the skin removed surgically. That is the reason we are speaking today with Dr. Daniel Kaufman, board certified plastic surgeon who shares with us factual and fascinating medical information related to skin removal following weight loss. 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. Let’s get started because well… Why Weight? (get it? Pun intended… )?”

August 06, 2025 Episode 240: GLP-1’s, Part 4. MY BFFL Susie and Her Use of GLP-1 medications
“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.
