    In this episode, I dive into the question - Is bariatric surgery a scam?

    Many people that have had negative experiences or friends/family of those people may have this view.

    Today I hope to debunk that bariatric surgery is not a scam and the common reasons why people may think so. I also go through how to maximise the surgery results, by ensuring you work with the surgery and not let the surgery to the work for you.

    In today's episode I go through the difference between an active weight loss phase (first 18-24 months post-bariatric surgery) and the maintainance phase (all the time after that!).

    Bariatric surgery is no diet. It's no quick fix. Remember the habits and behaviours you're building in the first 12 months are what will carry you through successfully in the months and years to follow.

    Work really hard on instilling these behaviours as habits and you'll notice the weight lost remains off long-term.

    This episode is practical. Are you struggling to find high protein snacks after the surgery? Do you find the supermarket overwhelming?

    In this episode, I go through how to pick a better protein bar, what to look out for, brands to look at (not sponsored) and whole food alternatives. It is all well and good to have protein bars, but consider the overall value of the food as well. I balance this by highlighting protein bars that are manufactured but then also whole food options that provide similar protein amounts and more micronutrients.

    You'll want a notepad for this one or your shopping list!

    Today we’re diving into a topic that affects many women who have undergone bariatric surgery—menopause and the potential for weight regain.

    Menopause is a natural phase of life that every woman will experience, usually between the ages of 45 and 55, though it can happen earlier or later. It marks the end of menstruation and is characterized by a significant drop in estrogen and other hormones. This hormonal shift can lead to a range of symptoms like hot flashes, mood swings, and sleep disturbances. But for many women, one of the most frustrating aspects of menopause is weight gain, particularly around the abdomen.

    I go through several strategies to help manage this phase of life effectively. Remember, this is a journey, and it’s okay to ask for help along the way. Menopause is a significant transition, but with the right tools and support, you can continue to thrive.

    This episode is a great reflective exercise to help you think about the way you have been living and operating from a food and lifestyle perspective, and identify what could be the causes of any weight stall or weight regain you might have had after bariatric surgery.

    Weight regain is common - around 30% of bariatric patients experince it. However, how you choose to react to it, is the key here. You can bury your head in the sand, but ultimately, you're hurting yourself and might affect your results post-op.

    Listen on to this podcast with a notepad for actionable steps on what and how to reflect on your current lifestyle to spot the gaps on why you might be struggling with your diet today.

    Intuitive eating is a straightforward concept. It involves making peace with all types of food, unlike traditional diets that restrict or ban certain items. Instead of categorizing food as “good” or “bad,” intuitive eating encourages you to listen to your body and eat what feels right for you.

    You might think this means eating whatever you want whenever you want, but that’s not the case. Experts explain that intuitive eating involves tapping into your body’s natural signals to determine when you’re hungry or satisfied.

    By practicing intuitive eating, you also let go of the idea that you need to lose or gain weight to achieve a specific appearance. The focus shifts to choosing foods that support your overall physical and mental well-being.

    It can be difficult to incorporate after bariatric surgery but by trying and taking a gentle approach you can learn what foods suit you and minimise foods that don't make you feel good. I go through how you can use it after the surgery and practical considerations to implement.

    Bariatric Surgery is challenging - it's a time of growth. You may find yourself being challenged with the 'norms' you have always known and found it hard to change those old habits that you used to lean on to manage emotions or stress.

    In today's episode, I am going through four mindset shifts you can make to help make the overall surgery process easier and save yourself heartache as you know you're not alone in the emotional growth post-op. If you are struggling further, please consider seeing a psychologist to help expand on this more in your own world. I hope you take away some nuggets of wisdom and remember, there is no destination after bariatric surgery - it's a journey of growth and discovery.

    Travelling with bariatric surgery need not be difficult. It may be different to the times that you travelled overseas in the past as you didn’t have any specific nutrition requirements.

    After the surgery, it is important to remember that you need enough protein, water and take your supplements.

    In this episode, I go through what you need to understand about travelling post-op.
