In this podcast, we are talking about:
What weight loss surgery is and some of the different types available
Why someone might consider this surgery as the right options for them
The stigma that still exists around getting or not getting surgery
Success rates - both short term and long term
This is an important episode if you are contemplating weight loss surgery or a revision OR if you’ve recently had surgery and you’re thinking “what did I just do to myself” OR you just want to better understand what weight loss surgery is?
We are not surgeons and we are not recommending that you do or don’t get surgery for yourself, this is a discussion to help you become better informed as you gather information about what might be the right path for you. It’s also helpful if you’ve had the surgery and want to better understand the emotions you might be struggling with.
Here is the link to last week’s podcast which talks about the importance of your mindset after you’ve had weight loss surgery:

Why you need mindset support AFTER weight loss surgery
This episode shares why we believe working on your mindset AFTER weight loss surgery is so important.
Fear is a natural companion to planning, having and recovering from weight loss surgery.
Fear of having the surgery
Fear in the early days after the surgery
Fear of weight regain
Fear of stalls
Fear of complications
Fear that you won’t know what to do
Fear that you won’t have anyone to turn to
Fear that people will judge you for having the surgery
Fear that people won’t accept you after you lose the weight (because they are used to you being the overweight person)
Fear about relationship changes
Fear that your food addictions and cravings will come back
Fear that you will be afraid forever!
The benefit of mindset work is that it has a lot to do with becoming curious instead of staying fearful. Wouldn't that be a much better state of mind!
Listen today as we talk about fear, mindset and the power of curiosity.

Just tell me what to do - wandering in the weight loss wilderness after bariatric surgery
In this week’s episode we talk about one of the most common things people say to us when they enter our community - “Just tell me what to do.”
If you feel like you are wandering in the weight loss wilderness, come on in! - join us for this discussion today.
We recognize that some people enter our community feeling confused. They are waiting for us to come at them with the lightning-quick, magic instructions - a repeat of ALL the other diet books and programs they've ever tried.
But, like you, we have learned that those "quick-fixes" never worked for long [if at all]. In fact, over time, those diets only led to more weight gain.
It can feel scary to engage your own intelligence, commit and be consistent. Because these are qualities that most overweight people think they do not possess when it comes to food.
But we disagree. We challenge you to ask yourself - What if I DO have exactly what it takes to figure this out (with some guidance and support)?
This conversation is 🔥
