You are a woman who never had weight issues before. Suddenly you hit your 40s and that weight creep becomes relentless even though you haven't changed anything. The struggle is real. A recent Wall Street Journal article discusses why the midlife weight management can be harder for women than men. What can be done about it?

Paulina Porizkova @paulinaporizkov supermodel is now 58 years old. And she claims she's "tweak free," using hashtags #nobotox #nofiller #nosurgery #nointerventions. But is she really?

S03E43 PAULINA PORIZKOVA - SUPERMODEL BUT SUPER ROLE MODEL?

Paulina Porizkova @paulinaporizkov supermodel is now 58 years old. And she's posted a lot about aging and self-worth. Should we be emulating her? Maybe. Maybe not.

There's one reason why I do what I do as a surgeon. Three patients recently reminded me of this.

"A person who makes few mistakes makes little progress." - Bryant McGill. Well, I have certainly made a LOT of progress then. I hope to talk on this podcast about some of the more interesting mistakes I have made. Here's my first example of a mistake during a breast augmentation procedure.

Of course, life never goes exactly how you expect it will. How will you make the most of it? I talk about this year's college application process in our family.

Last week I talked to an athlete at the gym and I decided I admire this person the most, and I wanted to talk about it.

How do we feel when someone makes us question our self worth, our physical attractiveness, or damages our confidence? As a plastic surgeon we have a unique responsibility to our patients, who are often at their most vulnerable when they come to us for our opinions.

Part 2 Last week was about a patient whose self-esteem got dinged, and this week is other situations in the gym and elsewhere where this can also occur.

The new drug, Ozempic (semaglutide) and its related medications Wegovy and Mounjaro are ushering in a new era of seemingly safe appetite reduction and weight loss with no need for willpower and mental effort.

As more patients who are being prescribed these expensive medications off label and speculation grows for every Hollywood star (or even acquaintance) who suddenly appears thinner, what does the future hold for our society in regards to what is the new normal for skinny?

As a plastic surgeon, sometimes the hardest thing to change about someone is their mind, not their physical body. How do you help people around you grapple with their negative self-image if what bothers them physically is something they cannot change?

You would think Annie Thorisdottir and Katrin Davidsdottir - the DOTTIRS of ICELAND and the Fittest Women in the World would have no problems with their self images, right? But perhaps it is not so surprising that elite athletes themselves grapple with how they look all the time.

This podcast episode discusses their recent episode of their podcast @DOTTIR, titled "What Should The Fittest Women on Earth look like?"

How can we relate to their struggles and learn how to deal with our own self-image challenges?

"She literally has man muscles." So starts the article "CrossFit, "Man Muscles," and the Feminine Ideal" written by @brittney_s Senior Writer at Crossfit.

What is the "Feminine Ideal?" Are CrossFit "Man Muscles" compatible with that ideal? Let's take five minutes to think about this.

How can teaching surgery possibly be related to CrossFit coaching? If you have never been athletic or a coach before, then drawing on your experience teaching surgery can result in some interesting comparisons to the challenges of coaching CrossFit athletes.

Special guest @staceymarino_cf201 Stacey Marino is a rising CrossFit star, but the ascent was not without many challenges. Coming off her best season ever, Stacey finished in her age group 34-39 last year 10th at @wodapalooza, 2nd at @_legendschampionship, and narrowly missed going to the @crossfitgames by four spots.

With her new coach @mattdlugos of @underdogsathletics, a well known elite athlete in his own right, Stacey has revamped her training and mindset. Fresh from a win at the 1st Phorm Monster Games @themonstergames in Joplin, Missouri, Stacey is looking for even more success this year.

In addition to talking about her successes, Stacey talks frankly about the challenges, including an eating disorder from childhood and related health issues, as well as dealing with negative body images and self doubt. Stacey has put her best foot (and the rest of her body!) forward recently with @jfzphotography in a series of photos for the Body Positive Project.

If that was not enough, Stacey owns CrossFit affiliate @crossfit201 in Oakland NJ as well as @201nutrition, a nutrition coaching business. Find out more about how Stacey juggles her many roles and yet is poised for even more success in the sport of CrossFit in the future.

If we constantly see "beautiful" images on social media, does that change what we think is "beauty" in plastic surgery?

We conclude our deep dive into social media and plastic surgery by looking at what is "normal" and "beautiful," and how social media influences what we think and want.

Special guest is @dr.christian.j.vercler Dr. Christian Vercler, MD, MA, HEC-C, Clinical Associate Professor of Pediatric Plastic Surgery at the University of Michigan C.S. Mott Children’s Hospital. He serves as Co-Chief of the Clinical Ethics Service of the Center for Bioethics and Social Sciences in Medicine at the University of Michigan. Dr. Vercler is a board certified plastic surgeon who specializes in craniofacial surgery.

Dr. Vercler has written extensively about the complex ethical issues regarding social media and plastic surgery, and how Instagram, Snapchat and Tik Tok may lead (or mislead) both surgeons AND patients into choices which may result in problems.
