🧰💉💪🏻👩🏻‍⚕️Just another tool in my tool box. Starting my GLP-1 journey is for more than just battling regain.

•I’m doing it to help manage my reactive hypoglycemia.

•To quiet the constant food noise.

•To reduce inflammation.

•To support my body as I navigate autoimmune disease.

I’m pairing it with:
•Weight training/lifting
•Balanced plates that fuel my body
•Plenty of water
•Taking my vitamins
•Mindset work
•Moving my body
•Working closely with my care team
•And daily habits that support long-term health.

This is about feeling better in my body. Protecting my health. And using every tool available to help me live more fully.
@valhalla.vitality has been great through the entire process making everything easy, informative, safe, and patient care centered. I have felt seen, heard, and not alone. I want you to know that it is OKAY to ask for help. That access to affordable Treatment is available. That you are worthy of that help. That you are NOT alone. End the stigma. Obesity is a chronic disease and tools/treatments are available. If you have been thinking about if a GLP1 or other therapy may be options for you I highly recommend reaching out to your care team/Valhalla Vitality and book your free consultation with a real doctor/NP/PA (not some AI). Use code: BARIATRICWARRIOR to save $, which also supports me & my family. 🔗 in bio. Excited to share this journey with all of you and also root you on your journey too! https://valhallavitality.com/?ref=REF-XSYD91-UH8W #ad #obesitymedicine #valhallavitality #bariatricwarrior #wlscommunity

T-MINUS 31 DAYS 💪🏻😍 see you soon Dr. Tower!!! I am so proud of all my hard work/strength physically/mentally/emotionally, my consistency, my resilience , and my determination. I cannot thank my whole interdisciplinary team for helping me get here as well. PS. I did not shave my armpits for a reason ( to show my growth pattern before skin removal compared to after) I have gotten Botox in my Axilla for 12 plus years because I have Hyperhidrosis… and I am allergic to aluminum in Anti-perspirants (I CAN recommend a really good non aluminum one though.. I have tried them all) #bariatricwarrior #wlssupport #plasticsafterwls #skinremovalsurgery #bodybybeauty

💪🏻Round 3 CW: 180 on @bodysystemswellness 9 week metabolic upgrade. I am back to 103 lbs down after my regain 4 years post wls. The body recomp has begun: more definition, my face is significantly less swollen, hello thigh gap.That is 33.4 lbs of regain down so far on this program, But it is not just about the Weight-loss or number on the scale. It’s about overall health and how I feel.

✅This program has helped my multi dominant SIBO symptoms greatly by decreasing them 80 percent (nothing has ever helped prior to this program/ I tried everything with my care team, RD, SIBO Specialist, Naturopath). That is the greatest benefit this program has given me. SIBO= small intestinal bacteria overgrowth.

💤Other benefits are my sleep. We all know I would go days without sleeping or only getting 1-2 hours relying on Benadryl or sleep aid & still would not sleep thanks to my absorption/ body pain.
✅I sleep 8 to 10 hours without taking medication
✅I have more energy/the brain fog is significantly better
✅My inflammation is way down as I got rid of the heavy metals/toxins.
✅My hormones are balanced
✅My skin is clear: I had a lot of break outs/folliculitis
✅I am off multiple medications 💊

💜This program has changed my life for the better. I am so proud of myself for the hard work I have continued to put in. Proud of the determination & dedication to taking back my health continuing to push forward to have the best quality of life I can despite my wls complications. I have been to hell & back more times than I would like. But through my pain I have turned it into purpose: @bariatricwarriorsupport . Sharing my story so that even 1 person doesn’t feel alone. I continue to give myself grace. I continue to show up, advocate, & support not only myself , but for others despite my struggles.

🫶🏻The team at BSW is top tier they truly care/there for you every step of the way. If you find yourself stuck/ dealing with inflammation etc & have tried everything I highly recommend sending them a DM and talking with Dr. K. What do you have to lose?! You deserve investing in your health as a whole. Let them know Steph sent you! #bariatricwarrior #bodysystemswellness #wlsjourney

That hit hard. I heal out loud. I am so resilient. But I could use a break from being the “strong” one. Trying to find my happiness again through it all. I will keep going. I will continue to overcome. Keep going friends.

Week 8 ROUND 2 💪🏻🚨My heaviest recorded weight of 283. At my lowest I was 147ish (too low) I am almost 6 ft tall. Regain happened & there I was at 213.8 feeling no energy, so inflamed, skin breakouts, bloated, & none of my clothes fit me. I started noticing knee pain again & it taking so much out of me to even walk a few blocks without taking a break.

💜 I needed help & that help was @bodysystemswellness . I cannot emphasize this enough this program has changed my life for the better in so many ways.

🎉 At Week 8: I am 185 lbs. That is 29 lbs of regain down so far. I am not done yet! I will continue to tackle this regain & get stronger physically, mentally, & emotionally.

⚖️ We are tackling my regain on a cellular level
🥇Rid my body of heavy metals/inflammation
🛌 Improved my sleep
💪🏻 Improve my metabolism
⚕️Balance my hormones
💜 Help my SIBO symptoms greatly.
💊 Gotten off some of my meds
🏃‍♀️ Improved Energy
🙏🏻 Better absorption with liquid Vitamins/minerals

⭐️ They offer a virtual program send them a DM For more info! Tell them “bariatric warrior Steph” sent you! 🙌🏻The health benefits & positives of this program has been such a win! This is why we are doing another 9 weeks🔥 💪🏻 Lets Go!

⛰️No journey is linear. Every day may look different. Most importantly don’t give up when life throws you a curveball. Instead keep pushing forward towards your goals. Get back up when you are knocked down.

💜To anyone out there struggling with regain or feeling stuck, you’re not alone. It is ok to ask for help. These are tools to add to your tool box. I believe in YOU!

💜 You are seen. You are heard. You are not alone.

👩🏻‍🍳 RECIPE TIME: Chicken & Veggie Bowl (plant-based Tofu alternative option too) Anti-inflammatory friendly

🍗 1. Protein (Chicken or Tofu)
I used Chicken: Pound to an even thickness for uniform cooking. Season with your choice of spices and cook in a pan until browned and cooked through.
🍋 💧 I use water and lemon juice to cook with instead of oil. *If you use olive oil it contains oleic acid, known for its anti-inflammatory effects.

🍚For Tofu: Press it to remove excess water before marinating. Use a mix of soy sauce, garlic, ginger, and a touch of sesame oil. Sear in a hot pan for a crispy texture.

🫘 3. Green Beans:
Blanch them to maintain a bright color and crisp texture. Quickly boil and then plunge them into ice water.

🥬4. Spinach:
Freshness: Toss with a bit of lemon juice right before serving to keep it fresh and vibrant.
*Spinach and green beans are rich in antioxidants and vitamins, which have anti-inflammatory properties*

🧀 5. Nutritional Yeast: cheese alternative
Toasting: Add it to a dry pan for a minute or two while stirring to enhance its nutty, cheesy flavor before sprinkling on top. Contains B vitamins that can support overall health.

🧂6. Seasoning:
My favorites are : Himalayan Pink Salt, Garlic, Kinder’s The Blend, Taco blend, Everything But The Bagel. Turmeric & Ginger have anti-inflammatory benefits too. Always taste and adjust seasoning as needed and to your liking.

✅These tips should help in bringing out the best flavors in your dish! Let me know in the comments below what your favorite seasonings are and if you are going to try this!
*I am not an Registered Dietitian or Nutritionist, just sharing a recipe I love and general information*
