Episode 214: Fear of Success Following Significant Weight Loss

Today I have three guests, all members of the BariAftercare program, joining me to talk about their fears of success following significant weight loss. Each of my guests is at a different place in their post-op journey and each is experiencing unique concerns related to their weight loss success. It’s likely that each person who experiences significant weight loss has some worries about the changes they will experience in life as they reach and maintain the lifestyle goals associated with weight loss. See if some of the concerns expressed by today’s participants are things you have thought about and let us know if you have experienced other fears about life as you successfully maintain your weight loss. Let’s get started.
