KEY TAKEAWAYS:

Obesity is a lifelong journey. It is a constant journey that will have you switching gears to manage aspects of your life, and continuous learning.
The BariNation Membership, or other accountability groups are critical in keeping on track with your goals. Having support with people who have gone through what you are going through keeps you going.
Even if one surgery didn’t get you to the results you wanted, there are other options. Natalie has had three different surgeries to get to where she is today.
