Episode 167: A Talk with Kelley Gunter, 22-year post-op about Persistence, Vitamin Deficiency and Doing the “Head Work”

BariAftercare: The Podcast

Kelley Gunter is the author of one of the best books I have read from a bariatric patient. Her book is called “You Have Such a Pretty Face,” a perfect title that so many people who struggle with the disease of obesity can relate to! Kelley is 22 years out from her bariatric surgery and maintains a weight loss of over 200 pounds. She has done a tremendous amount of “head work,” which she talks about in this podcast episode, along with the significant issues she has suffered due to a lack of having taken bariatric specific vitamins… hair, teeth, vision problems and bone issues! She no longer makes that mistake and supports the emphasis we have been placing on taking bariatric-specific vitamins. Kelly is a therapist, a life coach, a speaker and is working on a sequel to “You Have Such a Pretty Face,” which is titled “Queen of Crazy Town!” If you haven’t met Kelley before, you will be awed and inspired after listening to her today!
