Medgroup3: Healthy Weight Loss Diets Part 2

March 17, 2020 By Chef Michelle Hauser MD

In an effort to reduce the spread of COVID-19, I (Dr. Hauser) am shifting away from offering in-person group medical visits in my various practices until it is safe to resume them. I am posting some of the educational content I would normally cover in Medgroup Program group visits on the Chef In Medicine website so it is accessible for my patients (and others) online. 

Please note that the content in the presentation is not intended to be medical advice outside the context of an established, patient-doctor relationship. For context, this presentation is part of the educational content offered about making healthy dietary changes to help with weight loss for those with overweight and obesity. It primarily covers tips on making generally healthy dietary changes easier, more affordable, and tastier. There’s also a review of some of the content covered in prior sessions. Other related presentations will be posted on Chef in Medicine if the restrictions on in-person visits continue. 

The Medgroup Program aims to help those with overweight and obesity to lose weight and be healthier. This post is the second in a series of three posts covering Medgroup Program content. For context, this video includes part of the educational content offered about making healthy dietary changes to help with weight loss for those with overweight and obesity. It primarily covers tips on making generally healthy dietary changes easier, more affordable, and tastier. There’s also a review of some of the content covered in prior sessions. The videos make up much of the educational content offered in the third visit of the Medgroup Program (Medgroup3).

These videos were originally created for Dr. Hauser’s patients in the Medgroup Program at the Veterans Affairs Palo Alto Health Care System. If you are a patient of Dr. Hauser’s at Stanford or elsewhere (or not a patient of Dr. Hauser’s and just watching for educational purposes), please ignore any specific references to the Veterans Affairs Palo Alto Health Care System. Many, but not all, similar resources are available to some degree within other health care clinics and systems.

Comments are disabled on this post. If you are not my patient, I cannot answer your medical questions. If you are my patient, I cannot answer your questions on this website because that would violate HIPAA; please message me through the usual clinical contact methods such as Secure Messaging, My Health, or MyHealtheVet, or by calling clinic to leave a message or speak with a nurse.
