Welcome to another episode of Our Sleeved Life Podcast! This is Kellie and Mel, and today, we're diving deep into the sacrifices that come with weight loss surgery, both before and after the procedure. 🏥✨

👋 Meet Flynn, Our Studio Pup! 👋 Flynn, our adorable 12-week-old Corgi, is joining us in the studio today. Expect some puppy antics as we navigate through today's topic!

📅 Special Announcement: Join us on July 1st at 5:30 PM PST for a live celebration of our 10th season! We'll be live on Facebook, TikTok, Instagram, and YouTube for a special "Ask Me Anything" session. Don't miss it!

🎧 Episode Highlights:

Pre-Surgery Sacrifices:

1. Dietary Changes: Starting with liquid diets and cutting out favorite foods can be a major adjustment.
2. Medical Appointments: Frequent visits to surgeons, dietitians, and therapists to ensure readiness.
3. Mental Preparation: Preparing mentally for a significant lifestyle change and potential emotional challenges.

Post-Surgery Sacrifices:

1. Eating Habits: Permanent changes in how and what we eat, focusing on protein and avoiding certain foods.
2. Physical Recovery: Time needed to heal and adapt to the changes in our bodies.
3. Social Adjustments: Navigating social situations with new dietary restrictions and explaining changes to friends and family.
4. Exercise Routine: Incorporating regular physical activity into our daily lives to maintain weight loss and health.
5. Emotional Challenges: Dealing with the psychological impacts of such a significant transformation.

💬 Why We Do It:

• Health Benefits: From improved mobility to reducing the risk of chronic diseases.
• Quality of Life: Being able to enjoy activities that were once challenging.
• Mental Well-being: Gaining confidence and a positive self-image.
