Introducing the Bariatric Mindset® Success Podcast

🎙 PODCAST INTRO: Bariatric Mindset® Success 🎙

Welcome to Bariatric Mindset Success — the podcast where we don’t just talk weight loss, we talk real transformation.

I’m Dr. Kristin Lloyd — PhD in psychology, nearly 12 years post-op VSG, bestselling author, and your no-fluff guide to healing your relationship with food, body, and self.

If you're ready to ditch diet culture, quiet the shame spiral, and rebuild your life with mindset tools that actually work — you're in the right place.

We go deep. We talk trauma. We talk habits. We talk nervous system regulation. And we don't sugarcoat the hard stuff — because long-term success isn’t about willpower… it’s about self-mastery.

This podcast is for the high-achieving, over-functioning woman who’s done the diets, had the surgery, but still feels stuck. It’s not your body that’s broken — it’s the conditioning you’ve been fed.

Let’s break the cycle and build something sustainable — from the inside out.

Ready to rise? Let’s go.
