    91. How to Actually Track Macros After Bariatric Surgery or GLP-1s

    Ask 10 people in this community what a macro actually is, and you'll get 10 different answers. Half of them will still be guessing whether almonds count as protein.This week the whole Busy Bariatrics coaching team, Kylie, Lisa, and Stacy, joins Rob to break down how we actually teach nutrition: not just what to eat, but how to think about it so it stops being the most confusing part of your day.They get into why tracking should feel like data, not judgment, why "eat as little as possible forever" and "carbs make you fat" are two of the most damaging myths in the bariatric community, why your BLTs (bites, licks, and tastes) matter more than you think, and why chasing every supplement TikTok tells you to buy might be costing you more than it's helping.If nutrition still feels like a foreign language you keep failing a test in, start here.Take our free metabolic assessment: link in show notes.

    90. The Bariatric Business Blueprint: Mindset, Authenticity, and Building a Brand That Lasts

    What’s goin on Busy Bariatrics. In this episode, I sit down with Kelly Wilson to talk about what it really takes to go from bariatric patient to coach, creator, and entrepreneur. Kelly opens up about her transformation after bariatric surgery and how she built a thriving business while managing autoimmune challenges and the ups and downs that come with major life change. We dig into the mindset it takes to stay consistent, how she found her niche in the health and wellness space, and why authenticity is the foundation of everything she does. We also get into the behind-the-scenes side of growing a coaching brand — how to use social media to connect with the right people, what it means to truly understand your clients’ needs, and how virtual assistants can take the pressure off the backend so you can stay focused on impact. This episode is part bariatric mindset, part business strategy, and all real talk. If you’ve ever thought about turning your story into something bigger — whether it’s coaching, content creation, or community building — this one will light a fire under you. Keep gettin BUSY.

    89. "The 8 S's of Sustainable Success After Bariatric Surgery Dr. Kristin Lloyd, PhD

    Grab one of the last spots of summer camp here! You lost the weight. So why does the same self-doubt still run the show? Dr. Kristin Lloyd, PhD lost 200 pounds after her own gastric sleeve in 2013, then spent over a decade researching what actually keeps women's results after bariatric surgery. Her dissertation looked at why so many post-op and GLP-1 patients regain weight within five to seven years, and it has less to do with food than with habit, identity, and stress. In this episode, Rob and Kristin get into why diet mentality sets patients up for regain, how subconscious habits take over the moment life gets stressful or unfamiliar, why decision fatigue (not willpower) is the real obstacle to consistency, and a first look at the 8 S's of Self-Led and Sustainable Success, the framework Kristin is teaching live at Busy Bariatrics Summer Camp. If you've done the surgery, done the workouts, and still feel like the same person underneath, this one gives you the next move, not another pep talk.

    87. The Real Reason Your Habits Fall Apart After the First 6 Months on a GLP-1 or after WLS

    Take our assessment to help build your habits Almost every client who comes through our doors already knows what to do. They know protein matters, they know how to move their body, and they know to drink water. Knowing was never the problem. The problem is that the habit falls apart the second life gets hard: a bad week at work, a holiday, an injury, or just a general slump. Today the whole coaching team is here to break down what makes a habit survive year two, year five, year seven, instead of just the easy first six months

    86. The Bariatric Report Card, Habits, Food Noise & Weight Regain

    Join Steph for Our New York/New Jersey Meetup and Summer Camp What is goin’ on Busy Bariatrics?! Class is back in session. And this week… we’re handing out bariatric report cards. I brought on Stephanie from @PrettyFaceFatGirl_VSG and together we basically turned this episode into a teacher conference for bariatric patients trying to survive food noise, weight regain fears, emotional eating, body image issues, gym anxiety, and the mental gymnastics that happen after weight loss surgery. Because here’s the truth… A lot of people lose weight after bariatric surgery. Way fewer people actually heal their relationship with food, rebuild their identity, and learn how to maintain the weight loss without spiraling every time life punches them in the throat. In this episode we talk about: • Food noise after bariatric surgery • Weight regain and maintenance mindset • Emotional eating and slider foods • Healing your relationship with food • Why protein and satiety still matter years later • Gym intimidation and learning to strength train • Therapy, body dysmorphia, and identity shifts • Parenting after massive weight loss • The loneliness many bariatric patients feel • Why community support matters so much after surgery Stephanie shares her journey through years of Weight Watchers, Optavia, intermittent fasting, diet pills, and trying to “white knuckle” her way through weight loss before finally deciding to have VSG surgery after realizing she wasn’t actually living her life anymore. We also get into: • The mental side of bariatric surgery nobody talks about • Why “eat less, move more” is missing the entire point • How one bad meal turns into a two-week spiral for so many people • Why habits, patterns, and behaviors always matter more than motivation • The reality of learning to see yourself differently after massive weight loss And because this is still Busy Bariatrics… there’s also: • Long Island chaos • 90s diet culture nonsense • Coke Zero fridge cigarettes • Folding chairs at Italian family dinners • Green M&M debates • Two teachers oversharing for over an hour If you’re a bariatric patient struggling with consistency, emotional eating, food obsession, mindset, or trying to figure out how to actually thrive after surgery instead of constantly starting over every Monday… This episode is your homework assignment. Follow Stephanie: Instagram: @PrettyFaceFatGirl_VSG Follow me: Instagram: @myweightishistory Need help putting it all together after bariatric surgery? Busy Bariatrics helps post-op bariatric and GLP-1 patients master macros, strength training, mindset, habits, and long-term sustainability without crash dieting, burn boot camps, or trying to survive on 1000 calories and sadness forever. You’re not uncoachable. You just haven’t worked with me yet. Keep gettin’ BUSY!

    Join Daryl and 21 other bariatric experts this summer camp! Life is loud — and it’s easy to let other people’s drama completely derail your progress. In this episode, I sit down with longtime friend and coach Daryl Perry to talk about what happens when we let external chaos run the show.

We also dive into journaling, therapy, emotional eating, and how the coaching world itself has evolved. If you’ve ever felt like you’re constantly putting out fires for everyone else while your own goals burn to the ground, this episode is the wake-up call you need.

    84. Emotional Eating, Accountability, and Bariatric Success: Lessons From the Bari-Bestiez

    In this episode, I sat down with Nina and Pam, the incredible duo behind the Berry Besties, to talk about what really happens after the first year of bariatric surgery. We went deep on the challenges nobody warns you about, why mindset is everything, and how accountability partners can be the difference between thriving or backsliding. Nina and Pam opened up about emotional eating versus food addiction, the power of community support, and the personal transformations that happen when you stop isolating and start connecting. If you’ve ever felt alone or wondered how to keep your momentum going post-surgery, this episode is your reminder that you’re worth the effort—and you don’t have to do it by yourself.
