It only takes a second to think before you speak. Make a conscious choice to use people-first language as much as possible. Conveying empathy through your language makes a huge difference not only in #obesity communication-it enhances ALL communication. ❤️ Feels good to be kind.

[Paul Davidson, PhD @PaulDavidsonPhD]

The proper use of language taught by @KelleneIsomMSRD at #BariatricSummit2019. Be mindful of your words and improve both engagement and success.

Runs in my family, so of course I’m reading this right now.

"A secret in her biology" - a woman was genetically destined to develop Alzheimer's by age 50, but she didn't, and the reason why holds important clues to solving the Alzheimer's puzzle.  https://t.co/yyRAKHDcLK

@ThePittNews Is there a way for TPN alums to find their archived stories as web posts and/or digital versions of the original issues? I’m looking for an article from Fall 2004 on Mrs. Rogers book signing byline Angela Hayes. Thanks!

[Angela Marie Saba @AngelaMarieSaba]

One of the best stories I ever covered for @ThePittNews was when Mrs. Rogers and Mr. McFeely came to the Pitt book store. ❤️ what an honor! Glad to see the legend and message of kindness lives on!

[Pittsburgh Post-Gazette @PittsburghPG]

Mr. McFeely wants you to donate your sweaters!

The beloved speedy deliveryman is at the Children’s Museum of Pittsburgh’s for the 20th annual Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood Sweater Drive.🧥

Following along #OW2019 ! Downloaded the app, followed the agenda each day, and now watching everyone enjoy the @ASMBSFoundation Gala! Best wishes for a successful meeting close and safe travels home. Thinking of you.

What is the best social media management app? I’ve used HootSuite and TweetDeck...

[Angela Marie Saba @AngelaMarieSaba]

Helping patients address #obesity treatment can start with this ⬇️ Perhaps the conversation will be better received by patients if #weightloss is framed in the picture of overall health! Resources such as these guides can help navigate a difficult topic.

[The BMJ @bmj_latest]

The health benefits of physical activity are proved and wide ranging, exceeding that of any drug. This #BMJEducation article offers a practical guide to help clinicians discuss physical activity within a consultation #MedEd https://t.co/piPU7UEWjh

[Angela Marie Saba @AngelaMarieSaba]

Designating days and weeks for disease state awareness really helps keep the message of better health top of mind! Is there a full calendar of observances?

[Angela Marie Saba @AngelaMarieSaba]

Finished! 🥳❤️

[Angela Marie Saba @AngelaMarieSaba]

My Saturday nights have really changed since becoming a mom! Starting work on this presentation board for the Bday party tomorrow. Printed 100 pictures...No big deal 😂😂 #momlife #EverythingisElmo #artsandcrafts with pumpkin 🎃 beer 🍻

[Angela Marie Saba @AngelaMarieSaba]

@PsychoDietitian @PaulDavidsonPhD Sounds like a typical Saturday night 🙃

[Angela Marie Saba @AngelaMarieSaba]

Congratulations! Well deserved! Thanks @PaulDavidsonPhD for making me feel like I’m at #BariatricSummit2019

[Paul Davidson, PhD @PaulDavidsonPhD]

The winner of the Walter Pories Award at #BariatricSummit2019 is the prodigious @Jmortonmd who has made many major contributions to bariatrics. Now a leader in #ERAS. Joined by former winner @RaulRosenthalMD.

[Angela Marie Saba @AngelaMarieSaba]

What timing!! I just planned my 2-year old’s Sesame Street birthday party (with 5 days notice) and my mother-in-law just suggested getting juice boxes for the kids! I said no-although I’m in the generation that grew up on them (Hi-C #EctoCooler, #anyone??) #90s #Childhood

[Ted Kyle @ConscienHealth]

#JuiceBoxes became a staple of millennial childhoods. Along with this "Humble Masterpiece" came a tripling of #obesity rates. Now juice is out, but obesity rates are more stubborn. New guidance from @eatright a host of others. #HealthyDrinksHealthyKids https://t.co/fq99T06zBn

[Angela Marie Saba @AngelaMarieSaba]

@PsychoDietitian @PaulDavidsonPhD Wait...I thought you WERE there! 😆

[Angela Marie Saba @AngelaMarieSaba]

Interesting points @TewksRD I especially like individualizing treatment and “acknowledging and addressing” biases. Likely easier to change among HCPs in bariatrics/ #obesity care than among those not in the field.

[Paul Davidson, PhD @PaulDavidsonPhD]

How do we improve the patient experience in bariatrics? The esteemed @TewksRD summarizes key points at #BariatricSummit2019. Wise words from a nutritional leader.

[Paul Davidson, PhD @PaulDavidsonPhD]

Development of GERD after #Bariatric sleeve gastrectomy is a real issue according to @RaulRosenthalMD at #BariatricSummit2019. He suggests using manometry before surgery to be aware of potential reflux concerns.

[Angela Marie Saba @AngelaMarieSaba]

@LAndromalos @ASMBSIH @ASMBS @eatrightPRO @WtMgmtDPG @ObesitySociety Great work, Laura! What was your topic? I’ll be following to learn more!

[Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health @HarvardChanSPH]

Instead of #fatshaming, it would be best to fight the #obesity epidemic by changing food environments, says Harvard Chan's @DrBleich https://t.co/mfgvoZb2l6

[Angela Marie Saba @AngelaMarieSaba]

I still care about #obesity treatment even though it’s not my job anymore. I’m not a patient, surgeon, IH member, but somehow this field has captured my ❤️ To the amazing people I’ve met on this 10-yr journey: Let me help communicate that #obesityisadisease #TROA #NOCW2019

[Angela Marie Saba @AngelaMarieSaba]

Yes! I love that Novo Nordisk has a focus on obesity treatment. Yes, they are “industry,” but industry can be a positive, compassionate voice too! #TROA #NOCW2019 @ObesityAction @OMAsocial @ASMBS @ObesityCareWeek

[Novo Nordisk US @novonordiskus]

Today we’re in Washington, DC to ask lawmakers to support the Treat and Reduce Obesity Act. Learn more: https://t.co/j2mmvfslu4 #TROA #NOCW2019
