Hey BariNation fam,

​

Step away from the scale—there’s a more holistic way to measure your health. 🙌

​

In this week’s episode, April sits down with Dr. Nina Crowley, a bariatric expert and fierce advocate for patient-centered care, to dig into a hot topic: body composition.

​

Together, they explore how understanding what’s actually inside your body, not just how much it weighs, can totally transform your health journey.

​

You’ll hear:

🧠 What body composition really means (hint: it’s more than just fat vs. muscle)
📊 Why personalized data is more powerful than a BMI
🧍‍♀️ How muscle mass impacts your future health and longevity​
❗ The pros and cons of using at-home devices for body tracking
🧡 How shifting your focus to functional fitness can improve your quality of life

​

This episode is packed with empowering info that helps you take control of your health—without obsessing over the scale.

🛠️ Quick Tip from the Episode:​
​

Ask your provider about a bioimpedance test to get a clearer picture of your body composition. It’s fast, non-invasive, and super informative!

​

We even wrote you a script (at the bottom of this email) that you can use to make your phone call!

📞 Body Composition Scan Phone Script

​

Hi, my name is [Your Full Name], and I’m a patient of [Provider’s Name] / or I’m looking to schedule an appointment with your office.

​

I’m calling to ask if your office has a body composition analyzer or body composition scale—something like a bioimpedance device or similar tool that can measure things like fat mass, muscle mass, and overall body composition.

​

If so, I’d love to know:

• What kind of device you use,
• Whether I need a referral or a specific type of appointment to get scanned, and
• What the process looks like from start to finish.

​

I’m trying to get a clearer picture of my overall health, beyond just the number on the scale, and I’ve heard that body composition analysis can be really helpful for that.

​

➡️ If you use this, let us know if it helped!
