Episode 33: Do you really need a personal trainer after Bariatric surgery?
Description
This week on Bariatric Banter, Hannah and Steph dive into one of the most hotly debated questions in the bariatric community: Are personal trainers worth it?
They open up about their own experiences — from splurging on memberships and training sessions to realizing that sometimes the best (and cheapest) tool is simply a pair of walking shoes. Hannah shares how burnout and pneumonia reshaped her views, while Steph talks about how the right trainer gave her accountability and confidence.
Along the way, they remind us that there’s no one-size-fits-all journey: movement looks different for everyone, and that’s okay. Whether you’re team “walk it out” or “strength train it up,” this episode will leave you with practical takeaways, laughs, and the reassurance that your path is valid.
