Bari-Bestiez Chatz with Nina & Pam
Real Friends. Real Talk. Bariatric Journey
Welcome to Bari-Bestiez Chatz, the podcast where honesty lives and community comes first. Hosted by Nina & Pam, founders of the Bari-Bestiez community, we have real conversations about the weight loss surgery journey and the life that comes with it.
Each week, we dive into the highs, the lows, and everything in between — nutrition, mindset, movement, regain, relationships, self-worth, mental health, and learning to love yourself through every stage.
Whether you’re pre-op, post-op, years out, or simply searching for people who get it, you’ll find support, laughter, expert insight, powerful stories, and unfiltered truth right here.
💜 Pull up a seat, Bestiez — you’re home. Let’s chat.

Ep. 11: Hunger Games - 3 Years Post-Op
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Three years post-op, Nina and Pam know that hunger doesn’t disappear—it just changes its disguise. In this episode, they open up about what hunger feels like now: the head hunger, the hormone shifts, and those surprise cravings that sneak in after years of feeling “under control.”
They talk candidly about how GLP-1s, appetite suppressants, mindful eating, and honest self-check-ins help them manage appetite while staying true to their goals. Expect some laughter, a few hard truths, and plenty of real-life tips from two women still walking the sleeve surgery path—just with a little more wisdom (and maybe a protein shake in hand).
