Partners may feel left out, coworkers fear saying the wrong thing, family and friends get worried- or jealous, patients are overwhelmed with changes. This podcast is for all of us, however we’re involved in the adventure.

Theresa Talks About Her Weight Regain
Theresa had the gastric sleeve in September 2018 and lost about 100 pounds. Then she began to regain, eventually regaining 70. We talk about her highest weight before surgery and the illnesses it caused, the regain, her thoughts about why this happened, and east we need from doctors before surgery. We discuss how we support one another on our journeys, and Theresa gives advice to listeners contemplating the surgery (and it's not too late post-surgery!).
