Weight loss surgery is a polarizing topic. This week we are joined by friend of the show, Richard Eaton! Richard has lost 350 lbs and has undergone bariatric and weight skin removal surgeries. Rich shares his story and the struggles of being 600 lbs and losing weight both naturally and with the aid of surgery and medication.

Weight loss is so much more than just the x's and o's and Rich does a fantastic job of illustrating how you need to change your mindset and relationship with food in order to be successful - whether you are losing weight naturally or not!

Rich also shares his meal prep for weight loss hacks with us and talks about how he plans meals and creates lower calorie recipes that taste great. You don't want to miss this episode!
