You have been treating obese patients for many years now. What is the most important take-away lesson you can share with people who want to take control of their weight?
After treating thousands of patients during the past 25 years, I have learned that “one size does not fit all.” Change begins with knowing yourself and your own unique lifestyle patterns that have gotten you into trouble. For some people, it is eating large portions of food and not knowing when to stop. For others, food is an emotional crutch and used for comfort. Both of these types of people can be successfully helped, but they require differing approaches and strategies.
