BariAftercare: The Podcast

Episode 107: Actions Speak Louder Than Words… and Also Demonstrate Your Desire for Change!

Connie Stapleton, Ph.D. Episode 107

We’ve all heard that actions speak louder than words. This definitely holds true in the world of bariatrics! Prior to surgery or any weight loss program, most people talk about their commitment, their readiness for change, and proclaim their promises to do things differently this time. In this episode of BariAftercare, we’ll explore 9 objective factors that can help determine if a person is realistically likely to make changes in their life. These factors were introduced by best-selling author Henry Cloud, and are from the book Necessary Endings. Dr. Cloud also co-authored the phenomenal book,  Boundaries. As we review these 9 factors, consider your own journey and ask yourself if you are talking the talk or walking the walk toward sustained weight loss, improved health and a better quality of life. Let’s get started!
