We discuss the myths behind some of the confronting statements we are all told when we start out about food. What you're not allowed to eat. What you should be doing instead. Why you are ruining your surgery. These are all things that are confronting to us when we start our journey and its generally all BS.

It's the Elephant in our lives. Some see it as a tool to help keep them motivated and others suffer a long and hopeless battle to reach a number that they may never reach. Whether its positive or negative, scale obsession becomes part of our everyday lives. Do we see that as a challenge? Are our Goal Weights really where it ends for us? Why do we sometimes care more about that number we look down at more than how our bodies are reacting to our weight loss? A new segment is also introduced to get everyone more involved.

Here Grant & Chantelle talk about the lead up time to your surgery. The dreaded Pre-Op diet, the cravings you have to fight off during this transition and the tests that sometimes reveal more than what you were hoping for. They also feature some of your comments made about the pre-op stage as well as some helpful tips to get you through the struggles. What do you think the hardest part of Pre-Op is?

In this episode Grant & Chantelle discuss the stereotypes and sometimes negativity surrounding weightloss patients. Whether it be from strangers to colleagues or even family & friends, the stigma surrounding weight loss is very apparent mostly because people either don't know or are unwilling to learn more about what it takes to make this life changing decision. What can we do to educate more people on these circumstances?  Episode Notes: http://www.drsharma.ca/obesity-the-stigma-of-bariatric-surgery                       https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o9hRhsaopz4 Facebook: @Changingourweighspc Instagram: @Changingourweighspc, @chantellevsg, @orpheen Email: changingourweighspc@gmail.com Music: http://www.bensound.com/royalty-free-music
