In Episode 6, siblings, Seán and Catherine, talk about their love of cooking and food in a post-bariatric life.
They discuss different menu options and their love of cooking and how important it is to embrace cooking your own food post-op.
As always a good place to start is always speaking to your GP or other medical professional about your options and if Bariatric surgery is the best option for you.

(Sam the Cooking Guy is a great source of simple, straight forward cooking using whole foods, as noted in the podcast, not all of his recipes are compatible with bariatric surgery, but there are some great recipe ideas you might enjoy! He’s also pretty funny!)
