Share Your Story
Do you have a WLS story to share?

For some of us, telling our experiences through the written word feels right. It’s like writing a letter to your favorite penpal, or passing a note to your girlfriends in class!

On our blog, we host written accounts for others to read and enjoy. If you have a bariatric journey you want to share, we’d love to read it.

Be on the podcast

Want to have a chat with CeCe on the podcast? We’re always on the lookout for new BariBesties to have conversations with. Because the more we connect, the more we feel supported on our own individual paths.
