BariatricCon | JoJo B

The National Recognition Experience for Life After Weight Loss

The pageant is the stage—not the purpose. The purpose is to recognize the woman behind the journey.

We crown. We do not rank.

What BariatricCon Is

The pageant is the stage,not the purpose.

The purpose is to recognize the woman behind the journey. BariatricCon exists because the rooms available to recognize her have not kept pace with who she has become.

This is not about reliving the surgery. This is about celebrating the life that emerged from it.

The Transformation That Started a Movement

JoJo B began sharing her weight-loss journey on TikTok for human connection, not standard engagement; all the format for standard transformation, but carrying with contact.

Her honesty created connection, built a movement a community of more than 160,000 proud people, became the foundation for the work she leads today.
