Meet your Instructor & Coach

Hi! I'm Dr. Kristin Lloyd.

Dr. Kristin Lloyd, PhD, LPC is a certified transformational mindset mentor, coach, psychotherapist, energy healer and Reiki master guiding individuals to embrace healthy habits, better relationships, and fuller richer lives after weight loss surgery.

The struggles with weight loss surgery are real.

Having been over 400lbs and having bariatric surgery myself, I understand the struggles with food, having to build new coping mechanisms, and the emotional challenges that arise.

There's no nutritional solution for an emotional problem.

To heal your relationship with food and yourself, to put an end to your emotional eating... you must address the core issues.  Are you ready to be part of something that will help you understand yourself, gain tools and strategies to help you overcome the food issues and emotional eating, to help you stay on track, or get you back on track when you go astray?

I am 3 years post VSG. I was having some regain. I'd allowed old habits and patterns to return and feared I was losing control. I am now working on losing the regain utilizing the tools the program has taught me. This program is not a diet or quick fix. At first it is a little overwhelming - so much information and resources! But Dr Kristin and the coaches are there to guide you. I was able to answer why I overeat/binge eat, to recognize the emotions and face them. With workshops to practice the skills learned I now have plans and exercises in place.  The support provided is outstanding, from the coaches and Dr Kristin, to your fellow members. It is a safe space to express and explore your feelings and emotions.This program is worth every penny. There are so many resources, so much support, so much self discovery. As the layers peel back, the coaching sessions are there for you to verbalize what you're discovering and get feedback. Dr Kristin is particularly skilled at reaching in and pulling out the truth in all the BS. If you're looking for a program that will help you discover the emotions behind your eating, are willing to do the hard work and learn tools to help you along the way this is the program you've been looking for! The food noise is much quieter and visits less often. When it does come I feel empowered and able to handle what comes along.

I joined the Bariatric Mindset Group Coaching Program after 40lbs of regain. When I signed up I had no idea what to expect. I took a while to get involved but when I did the changes it made in my life have been unbelievable. The support calls, deep dives, hot seat calls and facebook group have provided the breakthrough I was looking for. I got more from the participation in the Bariatric Mindset Coaching Program in 6 months than years of local support groups and various other Bariatric Support. I finally found my tribe! Thank you Kristin and Team for proving a place for us and the tools we need to succeed. I can't wait to sign up next session!

When I joined the BMS Group Program, I didn’t realize how stuck I was in a victim mindset and learned helplessness. Fast forward 6 months, and instead of looking at resolutions at the beginning of this year, I decided to reflect on all my notes I had taken from the Hot Seats, Deep Dives and modules. As a result of this, I came to realize how much of a shift in perspective I had experienced. Being a part of this program has helped me be more committed and consistent. I have learned to use the wisdom of my body to focus on how well I feel. I am more flexible and I more easily recognize my strengths, advocating for my body. Due to regain over the past 19 years after having gone through an inordinate amount of challenges and tragedy,  I am learning to release the suffering and moving towards healing. I am also practicing self-compassion and owing my choices instead of punishing myself.  My body is losing weight in its own time as I follow my plan, and I feel good about that.

“To say this group has helped me would be an understatement.” 

To say this group has helped me would be an understatement. It’s is so reassuring to know other people understand what you’re going through and to have people to turn to that will listen. When the group program started I was really struggling with the mindset piece of bariatric surgery but now I feel stronger and more confident in my journey. I can say 100% that I wouldn’t be where I am without the support this group program has given me!

If you're not sure if Bariatric Mindset is right for you

I’ve been exactly where you are.

I've had weight loss surgery too and I've lived this POST-OP life for 10 years!! I've experienced the challenges. I've experienced regain - and lost it, and now sitting at my lowest weight ever!  I've gone through it, so I know what you are going through.

I've had to cultivate the practices and lifestyle changes to keep the weight off long-term. I'm also a licensed psychotherapist, transformational mindset coach and the international leading expert in breakthrough mindset success beyond bariatric surgery.

You had stomach surgery, not brain surgery.

There comes a time when you realize that you're struggling with issues and don't know how to change them:​

  • Autopilot behaviors
  • Emotional eating
  • Emotional overwhelm
  • Self-sabotage
  • Lack of motivation or getting started
  • Low frustration tolerance
  • Depression/anxiety/ADHD

I learned from Kristin a long time ago that losing weight isn't all food related. When I am in a depressed mindset I struggle with food, and so my mindset has to be a priority for my overall health. This membership (by far) makes it easy for me to focus on me and teaches me how to break things down so I can stop getting so overwhelmed.Dr. Kristin is a miracle worker. She gets right to the root of the problem. You can say very few words, and she gets it right away. She definitely has all of the tools to help you get to the root of the problem, shift your mindset., and change your life. I highly recommend the Bariatric Mindset Group Coaching Program. JUST DO IT. It has been a life-changer for me, and I know it will be for you too!

I have gone deeper with her and found out more about myself and what makes me tick than I have with any other person. She helped me lose the rest of my weight and keep the weight off for the past two years. I have had no regain. She and the women in the group keep me on track. If you are looking for that one group, this is the one to go for!

I knew I needed some help, but I did not know what it was. I was reading Dr. Kristin's book, Bariatric Mindset Success, and I researched Kristin and discovered the Bariatric Mindset Group Coaching Program. I jumped in not knowing what to expect, and I found something so much more than I could have ever imagined.I found a group of supportive women who understand what I was going through and are going through it with me! We celebrate each other's success and support each other through the struggles. I found lifelong friends that I never would have found had I not joined this group, I found an amazing coach who understood me and my journey because she went through it herself. She approaches her coaching through compassion and understanding, which I had never experienced prior to joining the group.Most of all I learned that it was not all about food and what I ate, but how I thought about myself and how that needed to shift. If you are thinking about it, and are ready to do the work. I HIGHLY recommend joining this group. Invest in yourself, you're worth it!

The Bariatric Mindset Group Program is a fantastic resource to have as both a pre and post-op bariatric patient. Kristin is amazing. Working with her is more like talking to a friend rather than working with a coach. The people that I have met in this group are pretty amazing as well. I feel totally comfortable sharing my feelings and emotions with them.It very much feels like a no-judgment zone!! Take advantage of this group, you WILL NOT REGRET IT!!!!!!!

A thousand times... yes! This membership has helped me beyond words. I used to constantly fight with myself regarding motivation and getting started. Listening to the mini-trainings and attending the support groups are exactly what I need to create ease in my life. When I feel stuck, I just go in and listen to 1-2 things, and within twenty minutes, I'm in a whole new frame of mind.

Get back on track, and stay on track.

I know what it feels like to feel totally out of control.  There comes a time when you realize that knowing and doing are two different things.  You may know exactly what to do, and at the same time, you know that you are not doing it.  This is the place to get back on track, and stay on track.
