Epi 308

This week’s episode is PACKED with heart, laughs, and REAL talk as Mel aka melunfiltered.vsg flies solo and welcomes the amazing Travis Lee — aka @Travmc — to share his 10-year bariatric journey. From high school firework shenanigans to post-op revelations, Travis opens up about the challenges and triumphs of being a gay bariatric patient in the Midwest, the power of community, and learning how to live life FULLY after weight loss surgery. 💪🌈

Mel and Travis both celebrate a DECADE post-op, and they’re diving deep into everything from gas pain and first bites, to dating, skin insecurity, regain, and building sustainable routines (spoiler alert: Travis is up at 4am 🕓 and thriving!).

✨ BONUS: We’re just DAYS away from the Just Be You Bariatric Awards Show! 🎉 If you haven’t grabbed your ticket yet — what are you waiting for?! Come surround yourself with people who GET IT.
