• RNY Revision & Pregnancy Regain: Losing 70 lbs of post-pregnancy regain after a Roux-en-Y revision and discovering a passion for early-morning fitness.

• Life After Skin Removal: How removing loose skin allowed Tammy to train for her first HYROX race, build athletic confidence, and wear a bikini for the first time.

• Shifting Mindsets: Overcoming social media judgment, letting go of food anxiety, and being an active, strong mom.
