Episode #2: Bariatric Influencers, the good, the bad, the downright toxic

🎙️ Bariatric Banter: Influencers, Sweeteners, and Keeping It Real 🎙️Let’s be honest—bariatric life is a journey, and social media isn't always the best travel guide.In this episode of Bariatric Banter, Hannah and Steph get HEATED and take a deep dive into the world of influencers shaping the bariatric community—some who offer real, relatable advice, and others who, well… might just be serving up a side of nonsense. 🙃We’re breaking down the rise of influencers promoting unrealistic eating habits (looking at you, endless liquid diets), why transparency is everything, and the need for actual nutritional info in all those “healthy” recipes flooding your feed. Spoiler alert: whole foods > drinking your calories every time.We also discuss artificial sweeteners (friend or foe?), share that you're on Ozempic, and explain why exercise isn’t just a suggestion—it’s the secret sauce to long-term success. Plus, we’re showing some love to the influencers who do it right and calling for more Canadian representation in the space, eh?So, whether you’re here to get real talk, some much-needed laughs, or both—tune in and let’s cut through the noise together. And remember: just because it’s on social media doesn’t mean it’s the gospel. 😉
