Life in the Bari Lane is your 30-minute dose of real talk about life after bariatric surgery — the good, the hard, the weird, and the “nobody warned me about this” moments. No fluff, no “just follow the plan” nonsense — just honest conversations about what it’s like to change your body, your habits, and your whole damn life. This podcast is a space for the highs and lows of the weight loss journey. Because here’s the truth: bariatric surgery is a tool — not a magic fix. It’s still work. It’s still messy. And it’s still life — with a different GPS. Whether you’re pre-op and researching, post-op and thriving, or somewhere in the “what the hell did I just do?” stage, you’re in the right lane. This show is about building community — the kind that gets it, supports you, and doesn’t sugarcoat the process. I’m Sacha — a real-life bariatric patient navigating this wild ride — and I’m here to keep it honest, funny, and deeply human. You’ll hear: 💥 Unfiltered talk about the hard days 🥗 Nutrition talk that’s actually realistic 🧠 Mental health, body image, and identity shifts 👯‍♀️ Support systems and “friendship fallout” 💪 Motivation that doesn’t suck 🙃 Oops moments, progress wins, and honest reflections New episodes drop weekly — short enough to fit into your day, but packed with the good stuff to keep you going.
