About B

Hi, I’m Brandice, but everyone calls me B. I’m a bariatric surgery patient, wellness encourager, recipe sharer, faith-walker, and forever work-in-progress. After years of struggling with my health and confidence, I made the life-changing decision to have bariatric surgery and it gave me more than a smaller body. It gave me a stronger spirit, a clearer purpose, and the courage to say yes to the life I’d always wanted.

This space was born from that transformation. I created Stay Golden to encourage other women on the same path because I know how lonely, confusing, and beautiful this journey can be. Here, you’ll find bariatric-friendly recipes, mindset tips, honest reflections, and faith-filled inspiration to help you thrive, not just physically, but mentally, emotionally, and spiritually.

I believe in showing up as you are, giving yourself grace, and celebrating every step forward, no matter how small. And if you’re walking through your own healing journey, I want you to know something: you’re not alone, and you are so much stronger than you think.

Let’s do this together. 💛
