Are WLS moms the real superheroes of the world? This week Staci shares her experience watching her sister juggle being a mom of 3 littles all under 6 who are always hungry and we ponder how moms who have had weight loss surgery manage to take care of themselves AND their kids. We don't even feed our own husbands!

Phew, don't let anyone tell you life after surgery is a cake walk (plus cake might make you have a fun dumping experience). No matter how much research you do, how many blogs you read, how many accounts you watch on IG, there are unexpected struggles that come with this weight loss journey. We share some unexpected hurdles that we have had to overcome, so get ready to dig in and get emotional baby!

One of us lists shopping as both a hobby and a physical activity. The other of us would rather drink a smoothie and people watch. But after surgery and weight loss, shopping can stop being an enemy and become a bestie!
