“Rebuilding your relationship with food, body, and self — one mindset shift at a time.”
Dr. Kristin Lloyd, PhD is a licensed psychotherapist, transformational coach, and guide in identity-level change—helping high-achieving individuals move beyond cycles of self-sabotage, emotional overwhelm, and inconsistency into grounded self-leadership and lasting transformation. After undergoing gastric sleeve surgery in 2013, Kristin came face-to-face with a truth most programs overlook: lasting change isn’t created through willpower alone—it requires a shift in identity, nervous system safety, and the way you relate to yourself. Her lived experience, combined with her doctoral research in behavior change, shaped the foundation of her work today. Kristin’s approach goes beyond surface-level strategies. She helps clients uncover the hidden patterns driving their behaviors—rewiring self-talk, rebuilding self-trust, and creating supportive internal and external structures that make consistency feel sustainable rather than forced. Her work integrates psychology, behavior science, and somatic awareness to create transformation that actually holds. As the founder of Bariatric Mindset Success™ and The M.E.E. Academy™ (Mindset, Embodiment, and Energetics), Kristin blends practical strategy with deeper, integrative work—supporting clients in aligning how they think, feel, and act so change becomes embodied, not just understood. Kristin is the Amazon bestselling author of Bariatric Mindset Success and Release Your Regain, and has been featured on The Doctors TV, quoted in Oprah Magazine, and published in Obesity Help and the Obesity Action Coalition. She is also trained in EFT, clinical hypnotherapy, and somatic-based approaches, offering a multidimensional path to growth that is both grounded and transformative.
