best bariatric surgery blogs of 2018
Miles to Go Blog was listed in the top 40 best bariatric surgery blogs of 2018
Renew Bariatrics says,"Here are the 40+ blogs in the bariatric surgery space worth reading and subscribing too. Learn better post-op nutrition, fitness, vitamins, and more."
And Miles to Go Blog is listed as one of them!
According to Renew Bariatrics, they "carefully picked these top bariatric blogs because they’re actively working to educate, inspire, and empower their readers with frequent updates and high-quality information."
"Another blog that recounts a woman’s (Julia) life journey after bariatric transformation is MilesToGo. Julie had gastric bypass surgery in 2006 and now uses her blog as a platform to share recipes, motivational ideologies, and resources for those considering weight loss surgery or already on their post-surgery path. If you’re looking for a well-established blog that comes from a woman who lost more than 160 pounds, head over to MilesToGo and read her firsthand account of post-bariatric surgery life."
praise for "out of obesity" from "be"
Liz Jobmann from Bariatric Eating writes:
Hello Julia,
"The copy of your book that you sent me has been a hit with those who have read it
and they are talking it up (and sharing it with others in the bariatric community too)!
Take care and I hope 2015 is a banner year for your book!" Liz Jobmann

"Your book is outstanding. I was very impressed with the medical information, guality, accuracy and the overall writing and prose. You clearly put a great deal of work, research, and effort into writing the book. I think it would be a very good resource for our patients considering gastric bypass surgery and will I recommend it to our bariatric surgery team for consideration for their patients."
I recently gave a potential bariatric surgery patient your blog site and recommended that she obtain your book and take a good look at it."
My best,

Julia Holloman has done her homework. She takes readers on an inspiring and informative journey while highlighting the guidelines and lifestyle changes required to successfully maintain weight loss. This personable, easy-to-read account from a patient’s perspective is sure to help others enjoy the success that Julia has achieved. I recommend this book, Out of Obesity and into the Promised Land, to healthcare providers, patients, and anyone considering bariatric surgery."

notes of encouragement
“I am going through all the process steps to prepare for bariatric surgery and I am afraid of complications. I have been doing lots of research and I wanted to THANK YOU for your blog. I have not had a chance to read it all, yet— but I sure will.
You have made me feel much better about the decision. Please don't stop blogging. I don't know if you realize how much it means to someone like me. I am going to start one soon because maybe I can also help someone one day.” —Leslie

Leslie has had her surgery and is giving back to others who need her help. Great job Leslie. Keep up the good work. Wishing you much success. Leslie writes.
"Hi Julia -- I am a little over 3 months past surgery now. I am down 60 pounds and am doing great. Thank God, no complications! Thank you Julia again for all of your information here. I continue to come to your blog for information and recipes, etc. Anyone that is contemplating this surgery, don't be afraid! Go to your doctor, get into some classes to learn more about it.
I am trying to give back too. I live in Northern California and have been assisting other people who are about to have their surgery or have just had it. So many of us are not sure what to eat, how to prepare it, etc.
