Can I take GLP 1s after having bariatric surgery? Weight loss methods have changed drastically over the last few years as GLP 1s have come onto the scene, leaving many people wondering what their options are. Dr. Rosen and I have a wonderful conversation all about bariatric surgery, how GLP 1s can be applied in situations where patients have had surgery, and all of the ins and outs of weight loss. Dr. Rosen draws from his years of experience and knowledge as he shares with me the expectations and results of various bariatric surgeries, what to do when the weight starts to creep back on, and which labs he keeps an eye out for in post-bariatric patients. If you are someone who has either had bariatric surgery or is considering that route, this is a must-listen! Quotes The relationship between bariatric surgery patients and their physicians should be for life, especially with the potential for vitamin deficiencies and weight regain over time. I expect to be on this journey with you, please don't rob me of the joy of the transformative journey that I find so rewarding! - Dr. Rosen I think it's really important to advocate for yourself and own the fact that you have a disease and that you are worthy of treatment.

We all have our challenges and for the obese population, they have to wear their challenge front and center for everyone else to judge.
