Dr. Matthew Weiner is an author and bariatric surgeon who specializes in the treatment of obesity. His practice is located in Tucson Arizona.
Dr. Weiner graduated from the University of Michigan medical school in Ann Arbor, Michigan. He completed his general surgery residency at New York University Hospital in New York City. He practiced in suburban Detroit for 12 years before moving to Tucson in 2019 where he, together with Dr. Guillermo Higa, founded Tucson Weight Loss Surgery.
In addition to his surgical practice, Dr. Weiner is the Director of Bariatric Surgery and the Medical Director of Telemedicine at Tucson Medical Center. He is an active member of the American Society of Metabolic and Bariatric Surgeons (ASMBS) and is a past President of the Michigan State chapter a Bariatric Surgeons.
Dr. Weiner has performed more than 2000 bariatric surgeries since joining his first practice in 2006 and frequently does complicated revision surgery. He also performs general surgery with an interest in stomach and small intestine surgery along with complex hernia repair.
In his first book, A Pound of Cure, Dr. Weiner debunks the traditional understanding of calorie balance driving weight loss and offers a non-surgical solution to those suffering from obesity through nutritional stability.
His second book, How Weight Loss Surgery Really Works: And How to Make it Work for You, is now available on Amazon in paperback and kindle. In this book, Dr. Weiner describes how the hormonal changes that alter your brain, fat stores and hunger signals are the most important component of weight loss surgery, rather than the portion control effects that have been emphasized in the past.
A third publication called The Bariatric Diet Guide And Cookbook is a cookbook for bariatric patients that will offer recipes and guidance on the most effective post-surgical diet. It’s set to be published in May 2021 and is available for pre-order at most online bookstores.
On his website, www.poundofcureweightloss.com, he offers more than 150 videos on a wide array of nutritional and bariatric topics. Lesson plans range from, “Preparing for Weight Loss Surgery” to “The Metabolic Reset Diet” including recipes and meal plans.

    Got my appetite back about month 2. After that, went keto. Have done amazing on it. Combining keto and GB has been a great experience for me. It is month 7 and lost 125lbs. And i have not cheated since i started the keto. Not once.

    This video is spot on. My surgery was Dec 2019. I’ve lost 153 lbs total. I’ve plateaued at the 167-172lb range. Food cravings are coming back and I’m able to eat more at each meal. I’m finding less energy because I was starting back into eating more carbs. Realized quickly what I was doing and applied the brakes. Dropped the 5 lbs I regained and lost an additional 3 lbs. I can see how easy it is to fall back into my previous way of life. I’m going to purchase the doctors books to keep me focused!!❤️❤️

    Sounds like you're doing great!!! Patients who have 200 or more pounds to lose often take several years to reach their lowest weight. Try to adopt the Pound of Cure weight loss program into your life - this will maximize your weight loss after surgery and help you to develop a healthy relationship with food. Exercise is probably still limited, but you can get a pedometer and try to increase the number of steps you take every day by 50%. As you lose more weight, you can increase the intensity of your workout. Great work so far and congrats on getting under 400 lbs.

    I like the last part about developing a healthy relationship with food & your body. I see so many in the WLS community rush out and get plastic surgery because they're not happy with what's left after surgery. Most haven't put in the work in the gym - nor have they really made the healthy changes to fruits & veggies you talk about. So many have the plastics & are still unhappy. I truly believe it comes down to self acceptance and learning to love yourself - your body included. I've favorited this video for future viewing when I feel the need.

    That is a bit judgemental. How can you begin to form an opinon about the motivation behind bariatric patients getting plastics? Or ANYONE for that matter. Just because it isn't right for YOU doesn't mean it must be wrong for everyone. Do you realize how negative people are about wls in general? It can bring a person to tears to be on the recieving end of other people's opinions about improvement of life. We have done a hard thing and world has no mercy for us because we have chosen a different tool. Nothing is a cure all or short cut for working towards mental, spiritual, and emotional health, but instead of downing other people's decision to get plastics, just share what worked for you...testimony hits home just as much, if not more than preaching. Whether one gets plastics, bariatric surgery, or not, people are trying and ultimately, people are hurting and tired of suffering. What Dr. Weiner does is a ministry far beyond the surgical procedures he performs. I hope you are well after all these years, and more open other's point of view.

I would NEVER respond to another person's comment and tell them they should "just share what worked" for them. I had WLS back in 2012 so maybe next time you might take your own advice and realize that responses like this are hurtful as well.

    I'm 2 years out and I'm regaining after having my baby. I wish I saw his videos right after surgery or before. I got pregnant too soon and didn't think I'd regain so quick after having a baby. i thought I'd lose quickly. I lost the weight the 2nd week and the 2nd month postpartum, I started gaining. Now, I'm about 15 lbs up. I don't eat well, I've started eating processed food (I was doing it in month 6 after WLS being dumb), I have the food cravings and head hunger so bad, I'm not as mobile as I was. I hate it. I've been watching his videos at work instead of snacking and I'm sipping on tea. I'll have to watch these viedos for the whole 12 hour shift to make it and get back on track.

I would consider myself to be a success because I've done things in my life the last 5 years that I've never imagined possible. - Amazing adventures, hiking hundreds of miles on scenic trails, - half marathons, you name it. I did it all! It is very challenging to stick with things when you are far away from your safe zone of people and situations though and I have experienced some weight gain. I'm grateful for your videos and feel a renewed ZING to hunker down and avoid the toxic food world we live in. Take care and thanks again.

    Thank you for making this video, Dr. Weiner. I had my bypass done at Barix Clinics in March 2012. I have lost over 100 lbs, but the weight is coming back fast. It's my fault and I accept the blame for it; I never changed my eating habits and my daily diet is fast food, frozen cokes and sugar/carbs. I was not aware that surgery wasn't forever...that I would lose my restriction or that my body would start absorbing all the calories/fat again. I'm able - and often do - eat well over 2000 calories a day now (although I also just walked a 5K last weekend so...I do the "dreaded" cardio like crazy). Food addiction is a beast and I'm going to start seeing an eating disorder specialist next week. I'm looking forward to dealing with this food problem that I have; I wish it were just as simple as just choosing the right thing. I appreciate you giving more information to those who are 2+ years post op. I have never eaten fruits or vegetables in my life so some of your information is daunting and stressful to even hear, but I do know "the rules" and I do know what my options are and what the consequences are for those different options. It's scary, for sure. Thanks again

    Dr. Matthew Weiner Taking ownership is the easy part! Changing is what is hard. Something that seems almost impossible at this point. I've eaten fast food since I was old enough to chew food. Never had to eat breakfast or lunch. Always had Hostess cupcakes, Oreos and Doritos readily available in my house as a child. Never had to eat fruits or veggies. In fact, I didn't even know what protein or carbs were until I had surgery - and I was 32 years old then! I don't know a life without processed foods, sadly. It puts me at a real disadvantage because I literally have to learn how to eat all over again and NOT having the processed/fast foods causes me great anxiety. Perhaps once I make some headway with my therapy sessions (eating disorder specialist) I will look further into the program at your hospital. I'm about 20 miles south of Detroit so not TOO far from you! Thanks again

    My dietician advised sticking to small portions and my surgeon said beware of snacking. I followed it and 2.5 yrs out I’ve kept my weight off. I also love salad and veggies but did so before my surgery also. I always keep a bowl of yummy salad or low carb vege dish for my snacks in fridge. I think this surgery isn’t good for binge eaters as they restretch stomach quickly. Obviously that is not everyone as some are able to change habits.

    I beg to differ about not being hungry the first year. Maybe that's true for some patients, but it wasn't the case for me. I was hungry very early on and was baffled by that because I was under the impression that I wasn't going to be hungry. That's one of the reasons I had the surgery because my appetite was insatiable! However, I do think that there's a change in brain chemistry because I no longer crave the foods that did me in and even if I do, I distract myself or prepare a really healthy meal. I am also afraid of eating out. Is this common? I mostly eat at home and I don't go out to eat with my immediate family unless it's a special occasion. Eating out causes me to face to many variables that I am unwilling to face. Here's my weight loss from April 9, 2015- April 11, 2016. Month 1: -25.8 lbs.; Month 2: -21.1 lbs.; Month 3: -12.2 lbs.; Month 4: -9.9 lbs.; Month 5: -7.1 lbs.; Month 6: -2.0 lbs.; Month 7: -5.8 lbs.; Month 8: -8.9 lbs.; Month 9: -4.2 lbs.; Month 10: -- .2 lbs.; Month 11: -5 lbs.; Month 12 + 1.1 lbs.; Total Weight Loss = 101.2 lbs. BMI: 45.45 to 29 = 16.45 points lost BMI 45.45-24.9 (goal BMI)= 4.1 BMI points to be lost 16.45/20.55= 80% BMI loss 276-101.2= 174.8 276-154 (goal weight) = 22 lbs. to goal weight 101.2/122 = 83% body fat loss I am a 55 year old female, about 5'6". No longer taking-- short or long lasting Insulin, 1000 mg of Metformin twice a day, 50 mg of Losartin, 20 mg of Pravastatin. Had VSG surgery and my surgeon said that weight loss with this procedure generates an average of 55% weight loss and that my weight loss of about 80% is well above average. My goal is 100% or 22 more lbs. for the next year. It's not going to be easy! I agree with everything else you talked about in your video and I eat a lot of food but the quality of my food is what's changed. I try to exercise every other day for about 2 hours each session and rest the following day but I still move by cleaning and cooking and doing chores that are never ending. The advantages of doing it yourself outweigh the cost spent for housekeepers and eating out. I am afraid to go back to the way that I was and have put my health as my number one priority. Guess what? That takes so much time, energy and focus that I'm exhausted at the end of the day. I am still getting my period which makes it difficult because I do have a fair amount of pain. But, I try to work through it as best I can. Love your videos and I look forward to watching them all again and again!

    Oh dear. The dieticians and doctors in my little town want me eating unhealthy zero calorie foods. For the rest of my life! I've never even eaten those products EVER in my lifetime, not even as a baby! I'll just eat what you suggest in your videos for right after surgery. I get sick EATING meat two days in a row - pre - op, (always been that way.) I'm a lac-to-vegetarian, who occasionally may eat some chicken or pork. Not one of the two dietitians/nutritionist could tell me what kind of diet to eat. Beans are limited, (they show canned baked beans as an example of beans in their literature!) They just recommended I follow their hand outs. Artificial sugars make me ill, and Nutra sweet - total pain and hampered fine motor skills. I feel so much better listening to your video. Bought the book. And really, should someone who has NO idea what quinoa is be giving me dietary advice? All the processed foods they want me to eat. And nuts are a no-no. (No, I'm not buying the canned prepared nuts, I buy raw ones, dehydrate them after soaking them 24 hours) I've been silently crying inside since March.. And I'm only allowed such a wee bit of veggies because they are "carbs." Luckily I found some very good organic protein, both veg based and whey based, (grass fed cows, etc). But, they are not on the recommended list! Surgery in 11 days. Thank-you for your KZread videos. Thank-you for recognizing how all those chemical food sweeteners and additives are bad for our bodies. I can feel it when I eat and taste them. And, yes, despite good eating habits, for the most part, I did gain weight. Yes! I'll give up sweets forever - just give me back my veggies!

    Lenny, you're going to have to ease into exercise. At 375 pounds, exercise is really not an option, just focus on walking and stair climbing (aim for 10,000 steps daily and 10 flights of stairs - get a fitbit or similar device to track it). After this becomes comfortable, look to add leisure activities that require you to move around (bike riding, tennis, a game of catch, dancing, etc.) into your life. Once you drop below 300, you will be ready for some more intense exercise and will very likely enjoy it - if you don't find another type.

    +Dr. Matthew Weiner I understand everything you've said here and I agree with it. However, I'm wondering if that means you can "Never" treat yourself from time to time within reason of course? What do you think about that? Do you agree with the 90% rule? Or do you think even that is toxic to bariatric patients? I love healthy foods already... which is why I think I'll do well on this. But I'd also like to think that I'll be able to enjoy a glass of wine here and there, or a slice of pie during the holidays...that kind of thing? Can certain foods incorporated in moderation still lead to success?

    The pre-op diet is a different animal and serves one major purpose - rapid weight loss immediately before surgery to make the surgery safer. Eating soft foods during this period will compromise your weight loss, defeating the purpose of the pre-op diet.

I do the Insanity and other Beachbody programs. However, I feel that I need to start eating healthier.

    I need to say,this to you - some of us (likely a higher percentage of those of us who are obese) have a genome that makes us taste bitter substances more strongly. It has a real impact on what we eat and how we eat. I only discovered this recently about myself. It didn’t surprise me however since I found water to be bitter. But when you exclude the artificial sweeteners for people like me, you can impede the progress. They enabled me to lose 100 and keep it off for more than 6 years (with just saccharin, due to bitterness, I could not lose weight), You have to be flexible for real issues with certain people.

    Dr.Weiner, I am confused about grains. Basically I stopped eating pasta , all types of bread/pastries and have drastically limited starchy veggies like potatoes/sweet potatoes....i make homemade crackers using hummus & oat flour for example. I use honey in the place of sugar. In your videos you say that grains are bad or unsuitable for weight loss? why? I eat Freekeh, brown rice or quinoa in place of refined white rice & only 1/2 a cup (uncooked). I do not understand why corn flour and oats should be avoided? I also have a salad with every single meal/snack to force veggies every time i can. I eat light feta in place of regular high fat. I use olive oil instead of any other kind of fat. My dessert is mainly fruit now. I do body weight exercises for 10-30 mins a day (as much as i can) + i actually like walking long distances (1.5 hours)...i am 6 yrs out of the gastric sleeve surgery. I had a slight regain and that's why i'm opting to load up on the fruits/veggies vs meat/chicken & have cut out refined sugars/carbs. But i depend heavily on oats...why is that an issue? I'm rather confused now...mainly i follow the Mediterranean diet but without rice,potatoes & bread.....will this work for losing 10-15 lbs?

    Excellent video, very informative. Dr Weiner, what kind of nuts would be a great choice to keep weight off. Almond, cashew and peanuts are a good choice? Will it be too much of a problem if they are roasted or salted?

    Dr., will you address what people who have some physical disabilities should do? I have spinal injuries, and I live with daily pain. I work actively with Pain Management procedures, and minimum pain drugs, but I have them when really needed. I am hoping my weight loss will reduce foot pain, hip pain, and my doctor is delighted and encouraging, knowing this will help. Still would like your input. Thank you! Your videos are very clear!

    +Judy Chonak I'm typically less optimistic about pain relief after surgery, particularly in patients who are not very mobile. After surgery, you will have some pain relief and will become more mobile which will cause pain. There is usually not net change in your pain level but a definite increase in your mobility. I am strongly in favor of non narcotic regimens for pain control which include non traditional techniques like yoga and meditation.

    Thank you so much for your thoughts. I am not expecting miracles, but I do expect more mobility, and an ability to strengthen myself. I do both yoga, and meditation. I also have a spinal cord stimulator installed from T12 to SI 3. I have used ablations for conservative, safe relief, and they last about 2 years. I do , after spending 3 years of establishing my great relationship with my surgeon, I am afforded pain medication, and I use it sparingly. I too do not wish to be an addict, and I am not, nor will I be. I want to thank you sincerely for your production of this video series. I have confidence in my Bariatric Group, I must say I have never so clearly, simply and frankly been educated as you have done. I have given your information to my Center,and I am so grateful to pass it along to others who are afraid of the procedure and a great deal of the "Mythology" that creates the fear. This is major surgery, and much be treated as a serious, life long change, but your education is a blessing. Namaste'.

    I missed what her weight was 1 year after surgery - did she get below 200? I am to have the Roux En Y bypass, and I’m scared to death that I won’t be able to do it. I’m going to fortify myself with videos of recipes I can eat. I heard nothing from her about protein shakes, so is that practical to do for a long time to help with what I don’t get in my food? Also I am 68 years old and have a lot of knee trouble that I hope will get much better without the weight, but my lack of exercising has been very weakening and detrimental to my health as well. What do you recommend? I am 208 lbs. female .

Could I get a revision? Should I get my pouch checked? Go on a 5 day pouch test? Not sure what to do.... :(

    I am not a fan of vegetables and I cannot change that. I know several people who have kept the weight off by eating Lean Cuisines. We have busy lives and cannot be constantly making meals to eat during the week. I'm an advocate of increasing your exercise which could be something as simple as walking 30 minutes a day and trying to eat as healthy as you can. I also cannot stress enough that counseling is important. Also Dr. Weiner is not factoring in that many of us have arthritic joints. I cannot do high intensity workouts and things like squats? My Doctor has told me absolutely not. These recommendations by Dr. Weiner are not different than for those who haven't had bariatric surgery.

I take medications that cause weight gain and I will have to talk to my specialist about getting off of at least some of them. My real concern is that I have senosis of the spine and cannot do much in the way of exercise even walking is painful I have tried aqua fit but it triggers the pain in my spine something terrible., Any comments or advice would be welcome.

    I’m 9 years out of vsg. I’ve never seen a nutritionist and my Dr told me only to eat 3 oz of protein for the first six months. No veggies or anything but protein. About 6 months in I started adding veggies although only after I had eaten my protein. My question is am I miss informed because it’s 9 years after my sleeve and I still only eat meat and veggies, no carbs, no fruits.

I've lost about 15 pounds and I'm hoping to lose 25 more before surgery... am I doing any weird/bad things to my internal thermostat by doing this?

    I had gastric bypass in 2012 and went from 301 the day of surgery down to 210. I am now at 222, gaining 12 lbs in the past two months. I'm interested in having the lap band revision (band over bypass), but would be interested in learning if you perform that surgery? I've been watching your videos and as much as I love my current surgeon, you seem to have a much wider knowledge base on the nutritional and mental issues I'm dealing with. I have the letter of medical necessity and the letter stating I have sleep apnea for insurance purposes (Medicare). I would appreciate learning more about my options. Thanks (This is the message I sent to your office via your website too...my name is Jennifer, by the way)

    Hi Dr.Weiner. I have been listening to you and everything makes sense. However, as you know, the WLS community preaches protein first. I have done well. I have lost 160 total and 130 pounds in 9 months. I have been eating very low carb, basically no fruits or vegetables. This goes against everything I know. I was vegan in the past but because it is a higher carb lifestyle I wonder if this would work after RNY. I find it a delicious and easy lifestyle and would have no trouble switching but I'm afraid of weight gain. My weight loss is slowing down so I'm thinking I need to change things up. Can you speak to carbs? Should I track. I'm currently eating 700 cal, 60 g protein, under 30 carbs. Just starting to incorporate exercise. Thanks for this great information.

    Water aerobics (waterobics, aquatic fitness, aquafitness, aquafit) is the performance of aerobic exercise in fairly shallow water such as in a swimming pool. Done mostly vertically and without swimming typically in waist deep or deeper water, it is a type of resistance training. You'll loose a lot of weight doing water aerobics!! I'm a male and I do it because it's less strain on my joints. Like my knees and ankles. And you burn fat for about six hours after the actual high intensity work out.
