“When I shared my story, I realized I’d overcome more than I ever gave myself credit for.”

This storytelling project exists to honor, celebrate, and uplift people who’ve undergone bariatric surgery by making them the heroes. Every story we share reflects real lives—full of strength, struggle, humor, heart, and transformation.

We believe in showing the whole journey, not just the before and after. Because your story, exactly as it is, has the power to inspire others, build connection, and shift the narrative around obesity.

If you feel called to tell your story, we would be honored to hear it.

Fill out the form below or email us directly at hello@paravita.co, and we’ll schedule a relaxed, no-pressure interview at a time that works for you.
