Welcome New Readers and Fans!

~by Nik and Jen


This weekend Nik met a lot of new people at her surgical practice’s annual Bariatric Reunion. She gave away the blog address to many people! And it seems we get more and more fans every day. If you are visiting us for the first time, let me first say welcome!

This post is intended to give you a little tour of this blog. First, some basics:

  • We post about twice daily (except for serious food holidays when we tend to inundate you with healthy options to make sure you’re well armed to face the masses!).
  • In addition to great recipes, we also post product reviews, basic nutrition guides, “survival guides” (to get you through tough eating situations), craft ideas and even ways to help your pets live better and healthier lives!
  • We try to always include a way to contact us on each post, but just in case you miss it, you can always e-mail us at pouchparty@yahoo.com. We especially love it when you send us pictures of dishes YOU make (whether they started as our recipe or not). We also welcome reader requests and suggestions.


And since we know you’re busy, we have several options for keeping up with us:

  • Look to the right of this screen. There is a link to sign up for our feed! That way you can get Bariatric Foodie posts sent straight to your favorite blog reader or even to your e-mail in a daily digest format.
  • Any upcoming party events will also be posted on the right hand side of the blog along with any new and exciting “going’s on.”
  • If you are on Facebook or Twitter you can become a fan or follower and get all the blog posts, plus bonus tips, fun tips and participate in our Pouch Party™ polls! (Note: on Twitter you can follow us on the go by texting @pouchparty to 40404 to get new post alerts sent straight to your phone!)
On the top navigation menu, there are several choices:

  • About Pouch Party tells you a bit about Pouch Party™, the parent business of Bariatric Foodie. On this page you can learn how we got started and how to bring our yummy recipes to a support group near YOU!
  • Your Food Questions, Answered is just that…your food questions answered! We have several ongoing series to help you learn about making better food choices. Our “BF Basics” teaches you about basic cooking methods, food types and skills that will help you make good eating decisions.
  • Favorite Recipes is a continually evolving page. Here you’ll find our comprehensive protein shake recipe list, along with our most requested recipes. If there is a recipe you’d like to see added to that page, hit us up!
In addition to the top menu, there are several other ways to explore our recipes:

  • If you scroll down and to the right, you’ll see a listing of posts by tag. Say you’re looking for a good recipe using greek yogurt? Or perhaps you're craving Indian food? We’ve got you covered!
  • We also have recipes sorted by date so that you can see the most recent offerings.

And if you like what you see, there are several ways to support Bariatric Foodie (if you so choose. That is completely up to you):
  • First and foremost, come to a party! There will be links each month for you to purchase your party tickets
  • Donate! You can make a donation of any amount you choose and those donations directly support the creation of new recipes and the review of new weight-loss surgery friendly products
  • Start your bariatric product shopping through us! When you order on Amazon or Netrition, if you start your order through a link on our page (or, in the case of Netrition, through the search box on the right menu panel), a portion of your purchase supports Bariatric Foodie!
Welcome to Bariatric Foodie! We hope you’ll visit us again soon!
