Picture sitting around the table with close friends in a cozy space, laughing and sharing your upcoming hopes, worries, and questions about your weight-loss surgery. No b******t, just real talk. The thing you crave if you’re going to start navigating this experience. That’s everything Allyson and Cortni sought when beginning to think about their bariatric surgeries, and something that was seemingly rare to find. Something that they hope to share with you. Two different surgeries (Sleeve gastrectomy and Biliopancreatic diversion with duodenal switch) two different states, two different “why’s”. Settle in and join the friends as they share the good, the bad, and everything in-between of weight-loss surgery. No guts, no glory.
