In this episode, Jason and Natalie sat down with Lora Grabow, LMSW; bariatric therapist and BariNation mindset expert to decode, define, and talk through the mountain that is emotional eating. Emotional eating affects everyone, bariatric and non-bariatric, and doing the headwork and work of weight loss surgery is vital to our success before and after surgery, as well as our life beyond.

Follow Lora on Instagram @bariatric.therapist and check out her online course “Headwork for Healthy Weightloss” online at www.loragrabow.com. Lora also leads four support groups a week in the BariNation membership community built around emotional eating support as well as support in navigating life pre and post surgery.
