Documenting my Health Journey ✨

10/13/2025

I made two delicious variations of white kidney bean soup — both bariatric-friendly and packed with protein! 💪

The first version includes pork chops, carrots, onions, lime, orange, rosemary, and a hint of red chili pepper. I blended it into a light, smooth purée — perfect for easy digestion. The second version is a hearty yet gentle soup with mushrooms, grilled chicken, onions, and carrots.

Both are ideal for anyone on a bariatric journey — nourishing, satisfying, and gentle on the stomach. I ended up with 14 servings, and the best part? I can pour it into a to-go cup and sip it while getting my steps in! 😜

By the way, I wrote a cookbook for bariatric patients that covers all stages of the journey — check out my profile if you’re interested!

✨ Life Update & Motivation ✨

Hi all! I hope you’re doing well 💛 I wanted to share a little update—some of you know I’ve been looking for a career that offers more family-work balance. I’m thrilled to say I’ll be joining an amazing local business that supports individuals and families with their health concerns. I’m excited to learn, grow, and contribute to something that truly makes a difference!

For anyone on their gastric bypass journey: this December marks three years post-op for me, and I can honestly say—life goes back to normal. Yes, pasta and sweets are in your future 😋 Don’t focus on what you can’t have. Take time to heal, understand your body, build healthy habits, and make choices that support your health. You deserve the best shot at success. I feel healthier, more confident, and full of energy to tackle life’s challenges—and so can you. 💪

You got this! 💛
