BariatricPal.com is the ultimate online destination and app designed exclusively for the weight loss surgery community. Our mission is to be the leading resource for individuals on their weight loss journey, offering support and trusted information from pre-surgery to lifelong success post-surgery. We understand that the journey doesn’t stop after surgery, and patients need ongoing guidance and encouragement. While your surgeon, dietitian, and family provide critical support, they can’t be available around the clock. That’s where BariatricPal steps in—offering 24/7 support and a vibrant community so that you’re never alone in your weight loss journey. Membership is completely free and provides access to an array of valuable resources, including: • Peer-to-peer support through discussion forums available 24/7. • A dynamic online community featuring live chats, blogs, and member photo galleries. • A comprehensive resource center with expert guidance on topics like weight loss surgery procedures, pre- and post-surgery diets, and living your healthiest life after surgery. • A surgeon directory with reviews from fellow members to help you make informed decisions. • Friendly forums with a zero-tolerance policy for rudeness, fostering a positive, supportive environment. • A thriving community of 400,000+ members, with over 4.75 million posts and 7 million visitors per month. • Free mobile apps, allowing you to take BariatricPal with you anywhere, anytime. • Our BariatricPal Store, your one-stop shop with over 3,000 products tailored to the needs of weight loss surgery patients: BariatricPal Store. At BariatricPal, we believe in helping patients take charge of their journey, providing the tools and support to help them achieve their weight loss success stories.
