About this listen

The honeymoon phase is real… and so is what comes after it.

In this episode of Bariatric Banter, Hannah and Steph get brutally honest about what life looks like 2–3+ years post-op — when routines slip, food noise creeps back in, hormones rear their ugly heads, and consistency suddenly feels a lot harder than it used to.

They talk about:

  • Why the habits that felt easy in year one don’t always cut it later
  • The reality of regain (and why no one prepares you for it)
  • Exercise expectations vs. what’s actually sustainable
  • Hormones, PCOS, perimenopause, and why it’s not “just you”
  • The fine line between giving yourself grace and making excuses

This episode isn’t about fear — it’s about discipline, honesty, and protecting the life you worked so hard to build. If you’re feeling stuck, frustrated, or wondering why things suddenly feel harder… you’re not alone.

Grab your coffee, lace up your runners (or don’t 😅), and let’s banter.
