Progress not Perfection. That mantra has stuck with our speaker Nina through several years working with patients on their bariatric surgery journey as it helps them define what their markers of “success” and “progress” really are. Defining success is highly personal, and not all about a number on the scale! As you look beyond the scale, it is important to have other outcome measures to show progress. Body composition has been a transformative tool to examine what’s going on inside the body as someone loses weight and then works to maintain that significant weight loss. Join us as we talk about using body composition assessments as a post-op tool to measure success!    BIO: Nina Crowley, PhD, RD, is a Dietitian, Health Psychologist and Advocate.
