In Episode #72, I have a discussion with pediatric endocrinologist and the co-founder of The Endocrine Co. in Orlando, Florida, Dr Pauley. Dr. Pauley has been a guest on the show several times. She shares her wonderful and insightful knowledge on all things that affect youth systemically. Dr. Pauley answers and explains things in an easy-to-understand and thoughtful manner. In this discussion, Dr. Pauley and I discuss what BMI is, how it's calculated and it's relevancy to body weight and weight loss. We go in-depth about the step-by-step process of creating a successful weight loss program for your teen. Dr. Pauley shares info. on the proven and safe weight loss drugs available for teens. Dr. Pauley, in her concise yet thoughtful approach, outlines the way in which parents and families can be a support group for their teen during the weight loss journey. Finally, Dr. Pauley offers her advice to parents and families to help their teen be successful in a weight loss program. In the end, I offer my 'Three Takeaways'.
I encourage teens, as well as adults, to listen to Dr. Pauley discuss this important topic.
As always, thanks for listening. Take care
