A bariatric portion control plate is designed specifically for individuals who have undergone weight loss surgery (such as gastric bypass, sleeve gastrectomy, or lap-band) and need to manage smaller portion sizes while ensuring proper nutrition and fostering healthier eating habits. Created by award winning Dietitian Amanda Clark, one of Australia’s leading weight loss experts. Here’s why it’s a must-have tool:


Our Bariatric Portion Perfection Plate is specifically calibrated to hold a 1-cup portion size, helping to prevent overeating and support long-term weight management. The plate’s structure aligns with post-surgery dietary recommendations, ensuring that meals are nutrient-dense and satisfying, while reducing the risk of stretching your stomach pouch and causing discomfort from oversized portions. By encouraging proper portion sizes, this plate helps reinforce healthy eating habits, making it easier to stay on track with your weight loss goals and maintain balanced nutrition after bariatric surgery.


Designed with visual guides on its base to help users create a nutritionally balanced meal with ease. These markings indicate the ideal proportions of different food groups, ensuring that each meal includes the right balance of nutrients.
The protein section encourages the inclusion of lean meats, poultry, fish, eggs, tofu, or plant-based alternatives to support muscle health and overall well-being. The vegetable portion ensures that fibre-rich, nutrient-dense foods such as leafy greens, carrots, or capsicum take up a significant part of the plate, promoting digestion and providing essential vitamins and minerals. The optional carbs section which is important if you are managing diabetes helps users incorporate complex carbohydrates like whole grains, legumes, or starchy vegetables in appropriate amounts to provide sustained energy.


The Portion Perfection Bariatric Plate goes beyond just guiding portion sizes—it also assists eating through carefully chosen prompts around the border. These words serve as gentle reminders to help you eat your food in a way that will result in better comfort and the overall enjoyment of your meal.
The prompts encourage actions such as appreciating the taste of your food, cutting it into an appropriate size before eating and pausing between bites.


The Portion Perfection Bariatric Plate comes with a detailed instruction guide that provides clear directions on how to use the plate effectively for portion control. This guide explains not only how much of the plate to fill but also how deep to fill each section, ensuring that meals are appropriately portioned for balanced nutrition.
The instructions outline the recommended food groups for each section of the plate, helping users understand the correct proportions of proteins, carbohydrates, and low starch vegetables for a well-rounded meal.
