Your Complete Bariatric Team

Having weight loss surgery can be both exciting and confusing. So where do you go for practical advice from a team of industry experts?

We make it simple for you by having all the knowledge you need in one place.

Before surgery – Understand the pros and cons of the different surgical options, know exactly what effect surgery will have on your eating habits, your diet and your body, and be prepared for all the emotional, behavioural and psychological aspects.

After surgery – We explain what’s happening stage by stage as you reintroduce foods, adjust to your smaller body, and experience the emotional changes that can occur.

Long term success – Have you experienced some weight regain since surgery? Are you aware that old habits are returning?

You are not alone!

We are here to remind you of the basics, and also explore some of the most common challenges that people experience after surgery.

Self-sabotage? People pleasing? Lack of time? Loss of Motivation?

Our expert team can get you back on track quickly, and without those hours in the waiting room!

This is the complete support package for anyone having surgery and you can access it all from the comfort and privacy of your home.
