Demystifying Nutrition and Bariatric Weight Loss: Protein, Carbs, Fats, and More
Description
Welcome back to The Weight Loss Collab! In this episode, Dr. Dovec and registered dietitian Hannah Schuyler dive deep into the essentials of nutrition for weight loss—especially for those navigating bariatric surgery or weight loss medications. With so much buzz (and confusion) on social media around topics like Ozempic, protein intake, and muscle loss, Hannah helps us separate fact from fiction using the latest science and her practical expertise.
The conversation covers everything you need to know about reading nutrition labels, setting protein and carb goals, and making your diet both nourishing and realistic after bariatric surgery. Hannah breaks down macronutrients, demystifies dreaded seed oils, and offers real-world strategies for making sustainable changes (without demonizing any food group). Plus, Dr. Dovec asks the hard questions about diet sodas, fast food, intermittent fasting, and the role of food in celebrating life’s special moments.
Whether you’re on a weight loss journey, supporting someone who is, or just curious about building a healthy relationship with food, this episode is packed with insights that will empower you to fuel your body, protect your muscle, and enjoy your food. Let’s jump in!
