    • Alternative Health

In this episode of the Former Fat Friend podcast, we are thrilled to have the remarkable Laura Flusche, also known by her Instagram handle @fluscheeitaway, join us for an intimate conversation about her transformative weight loss journey. Laura opens up about her life before and after bariatric surgery, detailing the emotional and physical challenges she faced as a new mother during the pandemic, leading up to her highest weight of 384 pounds.
With authenticity and grace, Laura shares her experience with the modified duodenal switch, which helped her lose over 270 pounds. The discussion takes an inspiring turn as she talks about her evolving weight loss goals, the realities of post-op life, and the importance of setting realistic expectations, especially when it comes to plastic surgery after massive weight loss.
Laura also delves into the complexities of managing a rapidly growing social media presence, navigating the balance between sharing personal triumphs and maintaining boundaries. She offers sage advice for those looking to share their own journeys online, emphasizing the power of authenticity and engagement.
The conversation doesn't shy away from the tough questions either, as Laura addresses how she manages discussions around food, nutrition, and body image with her children in a household where both parents have undergone bariatric surgery.
