In this episode, I sit down with Lora Grabow to tackle one of the most overlooked pieces of the bariatric puzzle: your head. We’re talking about the mental and emotional work it takes to actually succeed long-term after weight loss surgery — and why skipping it can set you up for failure, even if the scale is moving at first.

Lora and I dive into the tough stuff: grief, old habits, emotional relationships with food, and why so many patients avoid the “headwork” even though it’s the key to keeping their results. We also break down the role community and support groups play in healing (and how to find the right ones), plus the exact mindset shifts you need to start making now.

If you think bariatric success is just about protein and portion sizes, you’re going to want to hear this. Because the truth is… the surgery can’t fix what’s going on between your ears.
