BFC Member Stories: Lachez’s Journey — Revision, Resilience, and Real Life on the Road
Bariatric Revision Podcast Story
I’m thrilled to introduce our second podcast episode of the BFC Member Stories podcast, featuring an extraordinary journey—Lachez’s Journey: Bariatric Revision, Resilience, and Real Life on the Road. Just like Nancy, Lachez reminds us that our path isn’t linear; it’s full of detours, come-backs, and courage-fueled leaps.
From Setbacks to Comebacks: Embracing Bariatric Revisions
In this podcast episode, Lachez walks us through the emotional and physical journey of facing a cancelled weight-loss surgery and a bariatric revision years later. She opens up about the doubts, the restarts, and the strength she discovered along the way. This isn’t about perfection—it’s about honoring the progress, even when the road suddenly changes direction.
Everyday Resilience: Building Strength Beyond the Scale
Life on the road brings its own set of challenges—unpredictable schedules, meals on the move, and finding consistency in unfamiliar settings. Lachez spend years traveling and would meal prep and freeze meals or ship items to her hotel in advance. She got creative and pushed through barriers to set herself up to feel her best away from home.
Mindset Shift: Why Self-Trust Beats “Before and After”
Tools and strategies matter—but mindset matters more. Lachez has stayed positive and relied on her support systems again and again. I’m so grateful she has been a member this last decade of Premier Access!
LaChez has been surprised to see 85 pounds lost since her bariatric revision and wondered if she would lose 50! More importantly, she has relief from her acid reflux.
Why Support on the Road Makes the Difference
Even when life feels like a solo drive from A to B, community makes it feel interconnected. Lachez talks about the lifeline that Premier Access provides—whether it’s recipe ideas that travel well, micro challenges she can fit into rest stops, or a group chat that reminds her we’re all cheering her on.
