This 2022 Review episode recaps my tattoos, my travels, exercising, storytelling shows, birds, animals, protesting, and even recommending some new podcasts to listen to. I set some big goals for 2023, and I talk about almonds in my teeth for over 3 whole minutes! I'm super annoying. Enjoy! --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/my-gastric-sleeve-podcast/support

The Lovely Michelle is back yet again. I love these episodes because I laugh so much with her. She's my favorite. This episode will be talking about our trip to Chicago, and Denver. We will talk about what it feels like at the 2-year mark for me. We even catch up a bit about how her journey is going. We learn a lot, we laugh, we interrupt each other, and we say "WAYS OUT!" 8 times in 30-seconds! We're super annoying.

Caution! This under 30-minute episode sounds crackly. It's my microphone. So sorry. Just pretend you're sitting near a fire and listening to me speak. Other than that bit of annoyance, this episode will be an October recap episode, as well as 10 much needed Holiday food tips and tricks. Still not editing, so get ready for all the mouth noises. I discuss the 14ers again, my weight, our 5-star reviews on Apple Podcast, and some tips and tricks on how to get by during the holiday food season. Oh, and I can't figure out what that paper wrapper that goes around a cupcake is called. A doily? Foil? Just paper? I'm super annoyed.

This episode will be a September recap episode. Still not editing, so get ready for all the mouth noises.

Oh, and I call a nun "dope" ... a couple times! I'm super annoying. Enjoy! --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/my-gastric-sleeve-podcast/support

New episode with @nogutsnoglorypodcast2021 is up! Make sure to check it out - we hung out in Seattle and played cards, visited lavender fields, fed alpacas, and ate sushi with @jolean.gets.fit all in a few days. We talk about what weight loss means to us, how we got here, and what we're doing to be the best versions of ourselves. Also, I only lightly edited this episode so you will hear lip smacking and throat clearing. It's super annoying! Enjoy! --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/my-gastric-sleeve-podcast/support

This episode will be a July recap episode. This time I will not be editing, so get ready for all the mouth noises.

The Lovely Michelle is back and funnier than ever! This episode will be a different kind of recap episode. This time I will be talking about our trip to England, and we will be taking turns asking each other questions about our favorite things and what changes we saw in each other.

Anthony is back and better than ever! This episode, as always, is more of a chat than an interview. I have a conversation with a favorite of this show, our friend Anthony who lives in upstate New York. We talk about his 6-months since the surgery, his weight loss of over 100 pounds, his wins, his losses, but most importantly ... his journey. We laugh, we laugh some more, and we even swear. Spoiler alert, Anthony says "Awesome" a lot ... I mean a LOT a lot. It's super annoying. Hope you enjoy! --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/my-gastric-sleeve-podcast/support

I finally did it! I finished and got a medal for the Pasadena Sprint Triathlon. I'm so proud of myself. Listen to what it took to accomplish this not so easy feat. 5K run, 15K bike, 150m swim!
