Medicine shouldn’t just live inside four walls.

That’s what Dangerously Obese is all about.

When we step outside the clinic and meet people in their real lives, we see the full picture — what they’re fighting against, what drives them, and what keeps them from giving up.

I wanted this show to do more than follow surgeries or numbers on a scale.
It’s about connection, understanding, and helping people reclaim their health on every level.

“These are real people who are living real lives.”
That’s what I see in every patient—and that’s what you’ll see tonight.

Tune in at 9 PM ET and join the conversation.

The wait ends tomorrow. 🎬

Dangerously Obese premieres October 22.

From Dr. Procter’s playbook: this isn’t spectacle—it’s serious medicine, real people, and the science of obesity brought into the light. The series goes past the number on a scale to show what’s actually driving extreme weight gain—and what it takes to change course.

What you’ll get by watching:
Clarity on why bodies fight weight loss (hormones, metabolism, meds, history).
Insight into proven treatments—surgical and medical—and when each makes sense.
A practical roadmap: safer habits, better questions for your doctor, and what real support looks like.
Respect, not stigma: stories told with honesty and dignity.

Tune in tomorrow (Oct 22). See the work, the wins, and the truth—delivered with Dr. Procter’s straight talk and patient-first focus.

Drop a 🎬 if you’re watching and tag someone who needs this perspective.

Navigating Regrets and Adjustments After Bariatric Surgery

It’s not uncommon for patients to have moments of doubt after bariatric surgery.

Changes in eating habits, lifestyle, and even emotional coping mechanisms can feel overwhelming in the beginning.

Tina’s experience on 1000-Lb Best Friends highlights a critical aspect of this journey: the emotional and mental adjustments that come with a transformed relationship with food.

Sneaking a bite of a favorite food isn’t just about craving; it’s often tied to comfort and old habits.

Adjusting to life after bariatric surgery takes time and patience.

This is why I emphasize that bariatric surgery isn’t just a physical transformation; it’s a mental and emotional journey as well.

Coping strategies are essential:

Acknowledge the feelings: Regret and temptation are normal. Give yourself grace and recognize that change takes time.

Focus on your “why”: Remind yourself of the reasons you chose this path—whether it’s better health, longevity, or a more active life.

Seek support: Connecting with others, like family, friends, or a bariatric support group, can help you feel less isolated in your struggles.

Celebrate progress, not perfection: Every small step forward matters, even if there are setbacks along the way.

Tina’s story reminds us that building new habits takes consistency, effort, and support.

At the end of the day, success isn’t about never stumbling—it’s about continuing to move forward.

If you're considering weight loss surgery or are on your own journey, know that my team and I are here to support you, every step of the way.

Together, we can turn adjustments into habits and habits into a healthier future.

The Journey Before Surgery: Why It Matters

For anyone pursuing bariatric surgery, the process begins long before entering the operating room.

Take Scott’s story as an example from 1000-Lb Best Friends.

He was asked to lose 30 lbs as a measure of his commitment before being considered for surgery.

At first, the challenge seemed overwhelming, but Scott not only met the goal—he exceeded it, losing over 40 lbs.

His elation was well-deserved, and his achievement highlights a vital truth about the weight loss journey.

Pre-surgery weight loss serves several critical purposes.

It reduces surgical risks, helps prepare the body for the procedure, and lays the foundation for long-term success.

But perhaps most importantly, it demonstrates a patient’s readiness to commit to the lifestyle changes that are essential after surgery.

Bariatric surgery is a powerful tool, but it requires dedication to proper nutrition, regular exercise, and ongoing health monitoring.

Scott’s success underscores how taking these steps beforehand can build confidence, reinforce healthy habits, and ensure that each patient is set up for sustainable results.

It’s not just about hitting a number on the scale; it’s about showing resilience, determination, and a willingness to embrace lasting change.

For anyone considering this path, Scott’s journey is proof that even the hardest challenges are possible with commitment and support.

Your story can start the same way—with a single step forward.

💬 Bariatric surgery is only part of the journey 💬

Meghan’s story reminds us that weight loss surgery isn’t a one-step solution.

While she’s ready to keep pushing toward her goals, it’s important to remember that surgery alone won’t create lasting change.

Revision surgery is a serious decision, and I want every patient to understand that real progress comes from daily dedication.

After surgery, success depends not only on the procedure but also on making those important, ongoing choices to maintain a healthy lifestyle.

Bariatric surgery is a powerful tool, but it takes commitment and consistency to see lasting results.

In this powerful moment, Scott shares something deeply personal—what he’s most excited to do if he reaches a healthy weight: finally be his true, authentic self. 💬

I’ve seen firsthand how weight can act as a barrier, not just physically but emotionally. Scott’s story is a reminder that weight loss is about more than just numbers—it’s about shedding the insecurities that hold us back from living our fullest lives.

He’s tired of wearing masks and wants to show the world who he truly is, without fear of judgment. This transformation journey isn’t just about health—it’s about reclaiming self-worth and confidence.
