1. Sarah's Story: Building a Supportive Community

Sarah had gained 60 pounds from her lowest post surgery weight after suffering with grief over the death of a loved one. She was eating to cope with her loss, but knew she was headed for disaster. She had tremendous anxiety and depression about her lack of control over food and her weight and feared what might happen to her if she didn't find a solution. She considered revision surgery, but was fearful of that too. She felt alone in her struggle until she joined The Bariatric Success Method coaching program. She did it for her, but she also did it to make her loved one (in heaven) proud. Through the program, she connected with other bariatric surgery patients who understood her journey. Having a support system that shared similar struggles and triumphs gave her the strength and motivation she needed to keep going. She found huge confidence through her work at learning and applying the techniques for "eating for weight loss" and at graduation, had lost 27 pounds, and knew that she would keep going. She had the system that worked for her down to a science.

2. Lisa's Story: Following an Exact Roadmap

Lisa had been stuck in a weight loss plateau for months. She had gained a few pounds since her lowest post surgery weight, but struggled most because she never got to her goal after surgery. She was lost and didn't know what to do next because she felt that she had already tried "all the things". Her bariatric program was giving generalized advice that wasn't helpful and she didn't know where to turn. She was apprehensive at first but said that she knew that emotionally, she couldn't feel any worse than she did when she started working with us because she was miserable. The Bariatric Success Method coaching program provided her with an exact roadmap to follow. With step-by-step guidance, she knew exactly what actions to take to break through her weight loss plateau. Having a clear plan gave her the confidence and direction she needed to continue her journey. She had a new lease on life, having finally gotten not just down to her previous "goal weight"...but even beyond. She said she understood her body so well now that she knew for the first time ever that she could have slice of birthday cake at her daughters birthday and it wouldn't spiral her into a "weight gain and craving hell"

3. Emily's Story: A Cheerleader and Accountability Partner

Emily had always struggled with self-doubt and lacked motivation. She was a self confessed "big-time emotional eater". After her bariatric surgery, she had lost 45 pounds and she wanted to lose over 100 pounds. After a whole year of losing and gaining the same 2 pounds, she decided to try TBSM. She needed someone who believed in her, someone who could be her cheerleader, and tactics around emotional eating. With a dedicated coach and group of peers who offered unwavering support and encouragement, Emily felt inspired to push past her limits and achieve her weight loss goals. Having someone to hold her accountable kept her on track even on the toughest days. She learned a lot about what she was capable of, and that she would make mistakes and "slip-up" sometimes, but there were powerful lessons in that too, and it was part of her journey that ultimately helped her.

4. Jessica's Story: Believing in Herself

Jessica had tried over and over again to get back on track, but her lack of self-belief always held her back. She said "I don't think I have it me to try again. I tried so hard with my surgery and am so frustrated now, I feel like nothing will work for me." The Bariatric Success Method coaching program helped her build confidence in herself. Through mindset exercises and personalized coaching, she learned to overcome her self-doubt and negative self-talk. As she started to believe in herself, she found the motivation to stay committed to her weight loss journey and achieve a 17 pound weight loss in 4 months.

5. Megan's Story: Immediate Results for Lasting Motivation

Megan had struggled with getting motivated again after her surgery because once she stopped losing weight at 5 months after her procedure, nothing was working because she wasn't getting immediate results. The Bariatric Success Method coaching program provided her with a plan that delivered quick and noticeable results. Seeing the pounds melt away right from the start gave her the motivation to keep going. The program's focus on sustainable habits ensured that Megan's progress continued long after the initial excitement, leading to a fabulous transformation. She had a plan that kept her motivated. She even was able to go to parties and gatherings and stay on her plan because she planned ahead and felt that she had worked so hard for her success, there was no WAY she was going to sabotage her success.
