Chef Emilie Goldstein talks about what it’s like to undergo gastric bypass surgery for weight loss, which she did in 2016. We talked about what that was like for a busy chef, and how she felt more heard after she lost 160 pounds. We also discussed what it’s like to be raised by a Southern mom and a Jewish dad, how that impacted the way she ate as a child and now as an adult, and about her dreams for the future.
