Are you looking for the BariatricPal Store? Go now!

Recommended Posts

All of us use the internet to information on weight loss surgery – case in point: you’re on BariatricPal! You may be an information junkie who’s eagerly looking for all the details and tips you can find, or maybe you’ve narrowed it down to BariatricPal and a few favorite sites.

My question is: which weight loss surgery blogs do you read, whether it’s for recipe ideas or other WLS advice?

Thanks for your answers!

The World According To EggFace is my favorite! She is so down to earth and forthright with everything. She also obviously puts a ton of time, effort, and love into her blog, and really wants to help people by offering all of her experiences. The good, the bad, the ugly and the awesome! :)

I also really like https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCYSpwzYZVMq2DWYaEY6otXg

Her name is Melissa or Mellie May. I watched every single on of her videos before surgery. It took days but greatly decreased my anxiety. Now, after surgery, I enjoy her videos because she holds giveaways and is very honest and open about life after her RNY. She's a great resource and very nice. I have her friended on Facebook. :)

Michelle Vicari is awesome! Her blog is fantastic ad she's given back quite a bit to the WLS community.

Thanks for these great ideas! Yes, I love The World According to EggFace – what a wonderful story and some delicious recipes. They’re so down-to-earth.

And yes, bari delicious food is a great one. There are a ton of gems on there, like low-carb “bari-bread” made with cream cheese. Super cool!

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
