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.

In this episode, Nina & Pam of Bari-Bestiez sit down with Busy Bariatrics founder Rob DiMidio to talk about what it really takes to thrive after bariatric surgery.
So many of us think doing more is the answer—but what if that’s actually what’s holding us back?
Rob breaks down the Busy Bariatrics approach to long-term success, focusing on smarter—not harder—strategies that combine fitness, mindset, and community support. From overcoming gym intimidation to building sustainable habits, this conversation dives into the real-life challenges bariatric patients face—and how to move through them with confidence.
Together, we explore:
- Why “more isn’t better” on your journey
- The role of mindset and mental health in lasting weight loss
- How tailored fitness plans can change everything
- The power of community, accountability, and vulnerability
- Simple ways to prioritize your time, energy, and goals
