Heads up - New Series of British TV Documentary "Fat Doctors"



Recommended Posts

Several months ago I let everyone know about a great TV series I had found on Youtube called "Fat Doctor" about bariatric surgeon Shaw Somers. The show follows one or two new patients undergoing wls. It's a bit graphic but real and interesting.



There is at least another entire new season now on youtube and a show called "Fat Surgeons"


and for those of you who watched the earlier seasons you'll be happy to know that they follow up on earlier patients so you can get a real feel of how much weight they have lost.



I won't give anything away but there is one patient they follow up on and I literally had no idea who he was until they showed his before photos. The transformation was utterly breathtaking.



Anyway enjoy !!

I don't know whether you would be able access this - as it is on a British website - but this is the channel over here that is showing the series 'Fat Surgeons'.

This is the link to both series and all the episodes. Hopefully it'll work for you all. You may have to register to access.

Fingers crossed! :)

Yes he's lovely and we mostly seem to talk about music as I'm a singer in a band and he plays guitar. He instantly gives you confidence that you have done the right thing.

Yes, I started watching it before I saw your announcement.

For anyone who wanted a quick link with searching, go to: http://bit.ly/2vJ9uZf

This lists the series (almost) from beginning to end ... it's nearly in order on the FAT DOCTOR Youtube page.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
