This Is My Journey

S1 E5: Life After Bariatric Surgery with GLP-1 β€” With Kirsty Ginger

β€’ Marc McKee (This Is My Journey)

In this powerful episode of This Is My Journey, we sit down with Kirsty, who has lost over 13 stone and opens up about the realities of life before, during, and after bariatric surgery, and how GLP-1 medication is now helping her continue that transformation.

We explore what life is really like beyond the before-and-after photos: the mental and emotional changes, the impact on daily life, and the challenges that follow even after dramatic weight loss. Kirsty shares openly about her diagnoses, her resilience and her determination to take control of her health and future.

Whether you’re considering surgery, already post-op, or simply navigating your own transformation, this episode offers honesty, hope, and practical insights that will help you feel less alone on your journey.
