There’s no shortage of information on the internet about weight loss surgery, but so much information can be overwhelming and often missleading. Many patients have come to us missinformed and with several missconceptions about what weight loss surgery really is, because of wrong information they have found on the web. Which can, at some point be even dangerous. For this reason I thought important to curate a list with the 10 bariatric surgery blogs (for patients) you need to follow, if you are considering Weight Loss Surgery:

1.  BariatricEating.Com Is one of my favorite, because offers insigghtful information, Bariatric plans, recipes, info, support and products.

2. BariLife.Com  is the blog maintaned by BariLife, a multivitamin formula designed by a surgeon with the specific needs for postbariatric patients. It features important nutrition information and useful diet tips

3. GastricSleeve.Com is a forum and multiauthor blog feed by real patients.  It is a straight source for first hand information supplied by patients like you.
