judging interest for a Bariatric blog



Recommended Posts

So I am thinking of starting a blog but not like every other blog where people talk about their lives.

What I am thinking is a blog that has different aspects of what everyone needs, thinks, and use before and after having surgery.

The blog would consist of:

- Q & A butt with my tough love twist that people either love or hate.

- Product review. Protein powders, Protein Bars, Vitamins, etc.

- recipes

- Personal stories of my post surgery adventures.

- Rants

- Giving out free product to people who post like, subscribe, and post on the blog

I want to see how much interest I might get from this before diving in. I have tons of ideas ready to go and have some support from people on this site.

I am also brainstorming names. Any help would be great. This isn't just going to target sleeve people. his blog will be for anyone tht has had bariatric surgery.

The ore intrest I get the sooner the blog will be up and running.

Thanks

Great idea, Tap. I would have people PM the names to you though. You don't want someone stealing a good one.

I definitely support this idea! I'd be very interested in your reviews, recipes, Q&A, etc.

Best of luck!

Been hoping to find a site where we can find reviews of Protein Drinks and other bariatric products, kind of like Yelp. There are so many of us out there with different opinions, and so many products that we can't possibly try them all. A review resource would be nice.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
