Topic: RE: Good video on dieting from Royal Institute

Giles Yeo is fantastic at breaking down complex topics into something easy to digest (pun intended). I've noticed the same thing with diets--no matter the approach, higher protein and fiber seem to be the common denominator for making them work. It's interesting how simple tweaks like focusing on those can lead to better results without over-complicating things.

If you're thinking of sharing talks like this or creating your own breakdowns on YouTube, good editing can make your videos stand out. Here's a list of free video editing software that might come in handy: https://www.movavi.com/learning-portal/free-video-editing-so ftware.html. Would love to hear more of your takeaways from the talk!

Topic: RE: "1,000 Lb. Sister" Tammy Slaton Opens Up About Her Surgiversary

Lot of news articles of late about Tammy .. I won't post the links here, but one concerns her failed attempt to get loose skin removal surgery .. Her dermatologist/PS advises that generally the surgery is not done on WLS post-ops until they are at least 18, and preferably, 24 months out from their WLS date. There is just too much risk that their bodyweight/BMI may still fluctuate before then, working against the removal efforts. So, it looks like she will just have to wait a few more months before getting it done.

Topic: Al Roker on Food Addiction / Weight Loss Drugs

Al finally points out what I have always thought about food addiction, re: unlike with addictions to other substances, you do have to eat .. which makes managing such an addiction especially difficult :
