Fat Hurts: Your Guide to Personal Transformation After Weight Loss Surgery

You Can Transform your Life!
FAT HURTS: Your Guide to Personal Transformation
After Weight Loss Surgery takes a closer look at how you
can make the most of your life—after significant change
and transformation through bariatric surgery—from the
perspective of somebody who has been there! In this revised
and expanded Second Edition, using her extensive experience
in change and personal transformation processes, Dr. Pyle
offers suggestions on how you can shape your own personal
transformation journey. By sharing how she has, successfully,
made changes in her own life to reach and maintain a healthy
weight, Dr. Pyle opens possibilities for others to follow a
similar path. There are no easy answers, or a “magic bullet”,
but learning how to create and execute a carefully thoughtout
plan can bring you the desired results and long-lasting
changes to reach a healthier lifestyle.
Dr. Beatriz (“Tiza”) Pyle (PhD)
has extensive experience as a
coach and consultant. She has a
doctorate from Loyola University
of Chicago in Education and
Leadership Development, and
during her career she has been
a leader in change processes
in organizations. In addition, Dr.
Pyle has significant personal
experience with the difficulties
of dealing with obesity for most
of her life. She lost over 130 lbs.
in her 60s—and has achieved
and maintained a healthy weight
since 2009. Her objective in
sharing her experience—as an
advocate for personal change
and healthier, productive lives—
is to offer support to others in
their journey of transformation
and better health—at any age.
