What BAC does
Aren’t you tired of doing this on your own? There is a better way. We are your accountability partners and are a digital community of friends focused on living our best bari healthy life after weight loss surgery. Our private membership club, Bariatric Accountability Club (BAC) is a private Facebook community who interact daily in BAC’s by-invitation-only group.
BAC members only digital community is filled with people like you who are working toward their goals while cheering for you. Sharing is caring and a network of friends with a common vision (losing weight and building healthy habits) provides a great atmosphere and promotes success. Together, we are bari strong! #barihealthylife #imbacnow #baristrong #lovingthebarilife
We also provide the chance for you to meet either face-to-face or anonymously during weekly group support meetings, book clubs and other digital meet-ups via Zoom, a free to download virtual meeting app. If you need additional one-on-one support, BAC can help connect you with the right professionals including a board certified registered dietician with over ten years of bariatric nutrition experience; bari healthy lifestyle and accountability coaches, and coming soon: board certified bariatric psychologist and certified bariatric fitness trainer.
Together we will learn new tools to help you redefine and reshape your relationship with food and healthy behaviors. We’ll help you build an action toolkit for strength and lasting success. You will learn how to eat in new ways and maybe even learn new ways of cooking with online bari healthy cooking classes, healthy recipes & sample meal plans!
Let BAC be that friend who understands EXACTLY what you’re going through & how challenging it can be to make lifelong changes. (We know it’s hard. And we know it’s possible to walk through fire and emerge beyond it, stronger, forged like steel. How? Because we’ve either walked a similar path or are walking it now, just like you.

Need Accountability?
The team at BAC have lost hundreds of pounds in their life and understand needing an accountability partner who can help set goals and understand why we do the things we do.
One of our accountability coaches, Fluffy, has lost over 155lbs since beginning her WLS program. Two years ago she had RNY surgery and her only regret is that she didn’t do it sooner. She enjoys her new life and maintains a healthy goal weight range of 130-135 lbs while working on building deep health and fitness. She can help you set SMART (specific, measurable, attainable, relevant and timely) goals. And she’ll be your greatest cheerleader as you reach those goals!
e-Books, Meal Plans, and Meal Plan Hacks
The Fluffys kept a thriving low carb healthy fat (LCHF) recipe blog at fluffychixcook.com for many years. The blog is still there, but no longer active, but their book series, FEAST is available in a convenient PDF format. Be sure to check them out. And if you need fresh ideas for your Forever Diet, get the weekly sample meal plan for weight loss mode (WLM) in the BAC Files located in the members only Facebook group, Bariatric Accountability Club (BAC). The meal plan provides a glimpse into how Fluffy plans for successful bari healthy eating. The meal plans leave lots of great wiggle room to make them your own by adding healthy fruits, veggies, nuts, seeds, beverages and more.
Fluffy's and BAC's Story
We wanted to start Bariatric Accountability Club (BAC) to provide a private, members only space where bariatric peeps could share their stories with each other and offer motivation, inspiration, encouragement, tips, tricks, the whole healthy enchilada!
We recognized the need to have a tight knit group where encouragement is freely offered, but rationalization for poor choices isn’t rewarded. No one is perfect, but accountability is important. We all need structure and accountability. BAC’s community can provide that for you.
And we knew there was a huge need for a digital online support group experience, not only for convenience, but to help people who might be isolated from bari peers, or help people who may be isolated from the world in general. Aren’t you tired of doing this all by yourself? Now you don’t have to go it alone. Avoid the diet fatigue and loneliness with a group who KNOWS what it feels like to be where you are now.
We’ve met so many bariatric surgery patients who had surgery via medical tourism packages and consequently don’t have any support system. It’s got to be crazy hard to do this in total isolation. Cuz it’s already hard enough to change your complete life and maintain new habits with a full bariatric support team behind you. We knew we wanted BAC to be of service to these people. Our people. And so BAC was born! And now we all have a chance to claim: I’m BAC now!
