What is Weight Loss?

Healthy weight loss refers to reducing excess body fat. It involves the deliberate and sustained effort to lose excess body fat while preserving lean muscle mass, bone mass and body water.

Weight loss can be achieved by changing your diet, increasing physical activity, addressing psychological and behavioural factors and implementing lifestyle changes to promote healthier body weight. Other tools that promote weight loss include medications, endoscopic weight loss procedures and the most powerful tool, weight loss surgery.

Working closely with our doctor, developing a personalised plan, and maintaining long-term lifestyle changes can enhance the chances of success. Having realistic expectations and a comprehensive approach to achieving and maintaining weight loss and overall health improvements is essential.

What does eating look like after?

After weight loss surgery, eating habits undergo significant changes. Portion control becomes crucial as the surgery reduces stomach capacity, requiring smaller, more frequent meals. The diet progresses from clear liquids to full liquids, pureed foods, and eventually solid foods. Emphasis is placed on protein-rich foods like lean meats, fish, poultry, eggs, dairy, legumes, and plant-based protein sources. High-sugar and high-fat foods should be limited, while nutrient-dense options such as fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and healthy fats are encouraged.

Certain foods, including carbonated beverages and tough-to-digest foods, may be avoided or limited. Hydration is important, with separate timing for fluids and meals. Adhering to individualised dietary guidelines promotes optimal weight loss and overall well-being.

Do you offer weight loss medications?

Yes. Our doctor can assess your situation, provide appropriate recommendations, and discuss the potential use of weight loss medications if deemed necessary and suitable.
