What happens during a post-surgery review consultation

• Body Composition Analysis - ‘InBody’ segmental body composition analysers are used to monitor body fat and muscle levels in each arm, leg and around the middle. This state of the art equipment is used at most consultations where a weight change is being monitored and some change has been achieved.
• Review your food progression and advise.
• Develop individual strategies to address barriers to success
• Research shows the more often you see the dietitian in the first 12 months post-surgery, the better the weight outcome.

Our Philosophy

Behaviour change is difficult. Some people find the task of improving health insurmountable. We divide the task into manageable steps, addressing one issue at a time. You will leave with a renewed sense of power to change and a clear and achievable goal.

In the longer term you may find at times that you feel guilty or uncomfortable about attending follow up due to feelings of failure or having ‘fallen off the wagon’. As lovely as it is to see you when you’re doing well, the fact is the best time to see us is when things aren’t going so great. The most effective way to get back on track is to discuss the lapse and identify ways to deal with these situations differently in the future.

There is NEVER a need to feel uncomfortable to return! No problem is unsolvable and our role is to help turn the situation around and avoid future pitfalls. Be assured that others before you have encountered most problems, and there are strategies to choose from for help.
