✨ Hi girls! Welcome back to another episode of Big Butts No Lies — it's your girl Mavi Rodríguez, your go-to guide for everything plastic surgery and recovery!In this episode, I'm giving you a peek inside my Houston Recovery Haven — where I've spent the last few weeks taking care of my girls fresh out of surgery. I'm sharing everything I've learned from helping women through their tummy tuck journeys — the real stuff nobody tells you before surgery. From managing pain and swelling to finding that perfect comfy spot, this is your inside scoop on what recovery really looks like.Here's what we're getting into:
See all the Healthcasts at https://www.biobalancehealth.com/healthcast-blog WHAT YOU WILL LEARN: How to SCULPT YOUR MUSCLES AND TIGHTEN YOUR SKIN after weight loss! How to decrease VISCERAL FAT A new way to IMPROVE MUSCLE MASS by 30% for strength and beauty in 4 weeks DECREASE SUBCUTANEOUS FAT by 25% in 4 weekly treatments INCREASE MUSCLE DEFINITION with Emsculpt Neo A way to REHABILITATE AFTER SURGERY PRE-TREAT BEFORE SURGERY: Improve your post op joint surgery condition by increasing muscle around the joint HOW TO RECOVER Quickly AFTER CHILDBIRTH A Way to IMPROVE CORE AND PELVIC FLOOR STRENGTH How EM-Sculpt-Neo works Most of you know me as the expert in Bioidentical Hormone Pellet Replacement, but I am also expert in Skin and body care. If my patients have problems that your PCP has not been able to solve. I will refer you for new therapies, cutting edge treatments that work to treat your problem. The most common problem that my patients complain of is loss of muscle mass and changes in body fat that make them look old. I found a treatment that is not a laser, but the Emsculpt Neo uses safe and effective magnetic energy plus RF treatment to reduce fat and build muscle in a 30-minute painless treatment. Today I am going to talk about a painless treatment that we offer at my medical spa, BioBalance® Skin that has just been approved by the FDA for rehab after joint surgery. The magnetic energy (HIFEM) combined with RF energy increases muscle size and strength by 30%, dissolve fat by 25%, as well as tightens skin with the same treatment! EM Sculpt Neo is a 30-minute treatment that uses magnetic energy to make your muscles contract and is equal to thousands of crunches for 30 minutes. The RF portion breaks down subcutaneous fat in the same area. There is no work on your part, you just lie there, and your muscles respond to the magnetic pull by increasing in size and strength. Four sessions one week apart is the ideal number of treatments, and they come a in a package of four treatments to one area. The areas that most of us want to build muscle and lose fat in are our abs, upper arms, thighs, calves, love handles, and hips. If you need to do more than one area at a treatment you can do up to three areas, each for 30 minutes. If you have had joint surgery and need to increase your strength around that joint, EMSculpt Neo is very effective, after your doctor releases you to exercise. One of the big concerns with the new weight loss medications is that people often lose muscle as they lose weight. This is especially common after age 40, in those people who are not on testosterone pellets. EMSculpt Neo adds a tool that can preserve or even increase muscle mass and decrease fat where you want to lose it. EMSculpt Neo for fat loss and muscle building (not for rehabilitation) should be saved for those weight loss patients who lose enough weight to achieve a BMI under 30. For the best results, we suggest a high protein low carb diet, protein, low carb diet, to give your body the building blocks for muscle tissue. We also will suggest supplements for nutrition and to abstain from alcohol to get the best results. Healthy fat loss takes combination of EMSCULPT NEO, Weight Loss Medication, activity, Low carb high protein diet. We advise our patients over BMI of 30 to get started on weight loss first and continue diet medications while you are receiving EM-Sculpt Neo treatments. How do you lose weight without losing muscle? The Best Combination for the best results while you are losing weight on medication: EMSCULPT NEO to the areas you want to remove fat from Semaglutide or Tirzepatide medication to treat obesity for weight loss Testosterone Pellets if you are a woman over 40, and man over 50. Regular exercise like walking High protein diet Supplements to improve your ability to make muscle Who should do this EMSCULPT treatment? People who are working out but cannot do sit ups because of back injury Those folks who want fast muscle mass increase in specific areas Anyone who is on a weight loss program who is losing muscle and fat, or who has saggy skin in areas where they lost weight Patients anticipating a joint surgery Patients healing from joint surgery after PT Patients who cannot lift weights because of injury Those people who lift weights but cannot develop definition People with a Beer Belly with a lot of visceral fat Some people may not be able to enjoy this sculpting, muscle building method: We will do a free consultation before you sign up for a package of EMSculpt Neo and some patients will not get optimal results if they have any of the factors below: BMI greater than 30 Metal implants anywhere that are not titanium. Titanium is not magnetic, so it is ok to have a treatment if you have a titanium joint implant. No Rods or pins. Any pacemaker implant, pain pump under your skin, nerve stimulator or you are in the first 6 weeks post-surgery for any muscle area in the area. If you have a large abdominal hernia that was not repaired, then abdominal treatment is not advisable. You can still have other areas treated. If you have unrepaired joint damage, you can still have this treatment but let us know so we can slowly work the energy up around that joint. Those people who have a pannus, an apron of skin that hangs down below the vulva, or penis will not get enough relief from this procedure. These patients will need an abdominoplasty. This surgery is done by a plastic surgeon who removes excess skin and fat and repairs the muscles and fascia. You should not waste your money if you continue to drink alcohol while undergoing this treatment. Alcohol is a toxin and will prevent the growth of muscle and loss of body fat. Don't waste your money if you are not going to follow a low carb high protein diet during and after our treatment. How does EMSCULPT Work? EMSCULPT combines HIFEM (High Intensity Focused Electromagnetic technology) and RF (Radio Frequency). HIFEM uses magnetic energy to contract muscles in a particular area at intensities that are not achievable with routine weightlifting. Fat tissue in the treated area is also reduced by increasing metabolic activity. This results in Body Contouring. HIFEM is approved by the FDA for Body contouring, muscle stimulation, growth and to rehabilitate patients with injuries or after surgery. The second treatment that occurs at the same time as HIFEM is RF, Radio Frequency treatment. RF is a low frequency electromagnetic wave that heats up fat in 4 minutes to stimulate collagen and elastin to tighten skin. All this happens in 30 minutes with minimal discomfort. 4 treatments, one a month, is all that is needed to increase muscle 25% and to decrease fat by 30%, and to visibly improve skin tone. Answers to questions about this procedure: What should my diet consist of to optimize my treatment? To gain muscle you must eat your weight in pounds equivalent to grams of protein every day. E.g. If you weigh 200 lbs. and you want to gain muscle, you should eat 200 grams of protein a day. What foods should I eat to optimize my treatment? The best most concentrated protein is found in animal products-eggs, milk products, fish, chicken and red meat. What supplements will help support my treatment? You may want to supplement your diet with our BioBalance Magnesium combination twice a day, Probiotics, Creatine or Arginine and Ornithine combination. You should also take a methyl B12 and Methyl Folate while you are sculpting your body. Why can't I eat a lot of carbs and drink alcohol during or after the treatment? If you eat a high carb diet, your fat loss portion of Em-Sculpt will be limited, because whatever carb you eat over-stimulates insulin, which increases insulin resistance, and increases fat deposition. Whatever is eaten goes directly to fat again and replaces what you just lost. When can I start EMSculpt after joint surgery? After PT is completed or your surgeon releases you for exercise. Can I lift weights while I am being treated? Yes, but we advise not to lift weights the day before, the day of or the day after your EMSCULPT treatment. What does hydration have to be optimal for the treatment to work effectively? The human body is almost all water, and hydration is needed for muscle contraction. Muscles don't contract optimally when you are dehydrated. We put you on a body composition machine to both document your muscle mass and fat mass, as well as tell if you are hydrated adequately. Now that you know how EMSculpt Neo can change your body composition and build muscle, I hope you are comfortable enough to let us help you get the body you have always wanted.

The unexpected sight of blood when you're eight years post-menopause can trigger immediate alarm bells. That's exactly what happened to me in September 2024, launching me on a journey that ultimately led to having a hysterectomy at age 55.This very personal episode takes you through my complete hysterectomy experience – from the shocking discovery of post-menopausal bleeding to my recovery two weeks after robotic laparoscopic surgery. I share the medical investigations that revealed my significantly thickened uterine lining (likely caused by previous Tamoxifen treatment for Breast Cancer), the decision-making process that led to surgery, and exactly what happened during my hospital stay.You'll hear all the details about my physical recovery and my gradual return to movement and normal activities. I discuss my frustrations with vague post-surgery exercise guidelines and how I advocated for more personalised recovery information as someone who regularly engages in heavy resistance training.Throughout this episode, I emphasise that while I'm sharing my story to help others, everyone's hysterectomy journey is unique. Your body, your choices, and your recovery will follow their own path. I've included practical tips about freezing meals before surgery, focusing on healing nutrition, and the importance of gentle movement in recovery.This is the first in what will be a five-part series documenting my hysterectomy journey, with future episodes at weeks 4, 6, 9 and 12 post-surgery.If you're facing a hysterectomy, supporting someone who is, or simply curious about what this experience entails, I hope my candid sharing provides insight, reassurance, and perhaps some practical guidance for your journey.You can send me any questions or share your story with me on my Instagram @sonyalovell or email sonya@sonyalovell.comResources:Sonya Lovell on InstagramTamoxifen and Uterine Lining ACOG paperJournal of Obstetrics and Gynaecology paperThank you for listening to my show!

In this episode of The Pelvic Floor Connection, I'm talking to you, if you are preparing for gynaecological surgery, or know someone who is. If you're waiting for a date, feeling anxious, or unsure what you should be doing in the lead-up to your operation, this is essential listening.I explore why pre-op preparation is so important and why it's often overlooked. I explain how to become your own best advocate within a strained medical system, when it comes to really healing well, managing pressure in the body, and supporting recovery through breath work and movement.This episode walks you through key questions to ask your consultant in advance of your surgery, how to prepare for the days and weeks after surgery, and why treating your recovery like a “fourth trimester” can make all the difference. You'll also learn the importance of understanding your breathing mechanics, how your pelvic floor works under load, and why cues like “exhale on the effort” can be incredibly protective — both in the operating theatre and beyond.If you're heading into surgery (or supporting someone who is), this episode will help you feel more informed, empowered, and connected to your body through the entire process.
Join @dr.christina_prevett today on the Daily Show as she discusses the importance of reevaluating post-operative protocols in rehabilitation. She emphasizes the need for evidence-informed practices and questions who establishes these protocols, typically surgeons. While acknowledging that post-operative guidelines are designed to aid recovery and enhance function, Christina challenges the effectiveness of blanket statements and encourages a more individualized approach to patient care. Tune in for insights on how to adapt rehabilitation practices to better respect the unique experiences and needs of each patient.

Send us a textIn this episode of From The Heart, hosts Dr. Nim Goldshtrom and Dr. Adrianne Bischoff explore the latest research in neonatal cardiac care, focusing on congenital heart disease (CHD) and its impact on premature infants. They discuss a study analyzing survival trends in preterm infants with CHD, highlighting the “double jeopardy” these babies face due to both prematurity and congenital cardiac anomalies. Another study compares neurodevelopmental outcomes between preterm infants and those with CHD, revealing that term infants with CHD exhibit similar motor and cognitive challenges as preterm infants, yet receive less developmental support. The conversation then shifts to emerging research showing a decline in postoperative brain injuries in CHD patients, possibly due to improved surgical and perioperative care. Finally, they discuss a survey on neonatal cardiac care models, emphasizing the evolving role of neonatologists in managing CHD patients and the need for better integration between NICUs and CICUs. Nim and Adrianne reflect on the importance of specialized care teams, advocating for neonatologists to play a greater role in optimizing outcomes for this vulnerable population. Tune in for a compelling discussion on bridging the gaps in neonatal cardiac care. As always, feel free to send us questions, comments, or suggestions to our email: nicupodcast@gmail.com.

You've heard the Serenity Prayer: Grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot chance, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference. Turns out the founders of AA did NOT create this thinking. It originated many years BC… before the birth of Christ! The ideas used in the Serenity Prayer come from an ancient Greek Philosophy known as Stoicism. Using the tenets of this philosophy, focusing on what you CAN change in your life and NOT paying attention to the things you can't change, is how to create the life you want. This does require that you know the difference between what you can and cannot control. Listen and learn how to better create your healthiest life after weight loss. There's an amazing exercise at the end of the podcast that could be a game changer for you!Resources:BariAfterare: www.bariaftercare.comBook: The Art of Letting Go: Stop Overthinking, Stop Negative Spirals, and Find Emotional Freedom by Nick Trenton.Connie Stapleton PhD website: www.conniestapletonphd.comBariAftercare website: https://www.conniestapletonphd.com/bariaftercareBariAftercare Facebook page (for members only): https://www.facebook.com/groups/BariAftercareKevin Stephens: Your Bariatric Buddy https://www.facebook.com/groups/yourbariatricbuddy/peopleInstagram: @cale101 (Caleshia Haynes)Instagram: @therealbariboss (Tabitha Johnson)Instagram @drsusanmitchell (Dr. Susan Mitchell)Instagram: @lauraleepreston (Laura Preston)ProCare Vitamins (10% off with code ConnieStapleton)Dr. Joan Brugman: drjbrugman@outlook.comDr. Susan Mitchell:https://www.facebook.com/DrSusanMitchellhttps://www.facebook.com/bariatricsurgerystrategiesPlease subscribe to the show and rate it on Apple Podcasts, download free information at www.conniestapletonphd.com, and follow me on Twitter (@cstapletonphd), Instagram (@cstapletonphd), YouTube, LinkedIn, and on Facebook.

Today we are hearing from Laurie Smith, a 2022 graduate from Risely's T1D group coaching program. Laurie shares the harrowing details of her experience being hospitalized after brain surgery, from the hospitals' rigid insulin dosing protocols that ignored her personal needs, to her struggle for the proper care and advocacy in a system that wasn't equipped to understand the nuances of T1D. This conversation highlights the critical importance of T1D education for healthcare professionals and the need for more advocacy within hospital settings. Her experience is a powerful reminder that when it comes to chronic conditions, there is no "one-size-fits-all" approach—and patients must be empowered to advocate for themselves.
