Why Your Weight Loss Could Be Damaging Your Metabolism — A Bariatric Masterclass

Most bariatric patients track the wrong number — and it’s costing them muscle, metabolism, and long‑term success. In this masterclass, Dr. Nestor de la Cruz‑Muñoz, MD, FACS, DABOM explains why body composition matters more than weight, why the scale misleads patients, and how to make sure the weight you’re losing is the right weight. You’ll learn: • Why 20–30% of weight lost after surgery is often muscle — and how to prevent it • How InBody and DEXA scans actually work, and how to read every number • What healthy body composition should look like at 3, 6, and 12 months • The difference between losing weight well vs. losing weight badly • How protein, resistance training, and monitoring protect your metabolism • Real patient stories showing how body composition changes everything Key message: The scale tells you how much you weigh. Body composition tells you what you’re made of — and that determines your future.
