Hey Friend!
I feel like this is the stuff that is rarely, if ever talked about when it comes to weight loss surgery or medication. To many, the can seem like the magic solution. But, for most, the things that contributed to weight gain in the first place wasn't ever just about the food.
The things weight loss surgeries seem to miss (just like diets, and other quick fixes) is all the mental and emotional baggage or trauma we are carrying around--likely contributing to the weight in the first place.
This week we have a special guest for the show. Kelly Chance is a coach who helps women who have (or are considering) weight loss surgery heal their relationship to food and their bodies.
Kelly had dieted for over 40 years. She ended up getting the lap band surgery thinking it would be the magic bullet to help her finally end her struggle with her weight and food for good, but learned there were other issues that the surgery couldn't fix or even made worse.
Kelly shares her experience with lap band surgery, her struggle after the surgery, and ways you can work on having a healthier relationship to food and your body whether or not you have had or are thinking about having weight loss surgery.
