What Listeners Are Saying

"The Our Sleeved Life Podcast has been such a comforting reminder that I’m not alone on this journey. Their genuine conversations and heartfelt stories create a safe space that feels like sitting with friends who truly understand. The authenticity they bring to every episode inspires me, and the sense of community they foster is invaluable. It’s not just a podcast; it’s a support system that makes this path so much more meaningful."

When I made the decision to have bariatric surgery, the first thing I did was to research podcasts to listen to. Our Sleeved Life was the first one I found that was created by bariatric patients. I knew immediately that I found my people. They knew the struggles, they talked about the things that the medical professionals didn't think to mention, and they did it with relatability and humor. I joined their support group, the Benchies, and as I got to know Kellie and Mel better, I learned how much they have done, and continue to do, for the bariatric community in ways far beyond the podcast. But the podcast is the heart and soul of it all and listening to it is like being welcomed in to have a chat with the girls and coming away better and more informed!

"I started listening to the Our Sleeved Life Podcast while preparing for my surgery. I get so prepared and calm going into it. I knew exactly what to expect at each recovery stage. I continue to listen every week because there is always something to learn. I’m 2.5 years out from my surgery. I’ve lost 127 lbs and I’ve maintained my weight for a year."
