Why would someone not lose weight after WLS?

WLS is a powerful tool providing AMAZING results for so many.  Uniquely, there are individuals that never obtain their idealized results they set for themselves.  Some may find their expectations are unrealistic, but maybe they’ve missed the “less obvious” and “not so obvious” causes of weight loss resistance.

Obvious

There are of course very obvious reasons of why someone is not losing weight after WLS such as:

  • Poor diet choices
  • Eating too much food
  • Not eating enough food
  • Activity/Sedentary

Less Obvious

So many get stuck on the “obvious” causes and place blame on themselves or others for not attaining expected results.  In reality there are factors that can impact one’s ability to optimize results after WLS.   These include:

  • Metabolic
    • Thyroid
    • Adrenals
  • Stress
  • Poor gut health
  • Deficiencies
    • Macro- protein, fat & carbohydrates
    • Micro- vitamins and minerals
  • Sleep
    • Circadian rhythm
  • Inflammation

Not So Obvious

If you want to go even deeper to optimize results and understand your personal connection, I would also consider:

  • Genetics
    • Nutrigenetics- How an individual responds to his or her environment.
    • Nutrigenomics- Utilizing the best intervention, understanding how to use diet to active or silence specific genes.

If you’re struggling with weight loss resistance

First off, I would say don’t lose hope!  If you have unmet realistic goals,  I would love to work with you on optimizing your results.  I have worked with tens of thousands of WLS patients helping them identify those not so obvious causes contributing to weight loss resistance.

Your future health awaits…
