Do you want to get the best outcome from your weight loss surgery?

The surgery provides a powerful tool and is an essential starting point for the weight loss journey. Making adjustments and taking action with regard to psychological, behavioural and lifestyle changes is also necessary to ensure the best possible weight loss and quality of life outcomes.

So what do you have to do long term to achieve a successful outcome?

Our intellectual knowledge about healthy living is one factor, but our emotions also form a significant piece of the puzzle. An understanding of our emotional world is vital in order to establish a healthy lifestyle in the obesogenic environment that we live in.
When stressful events arise, our brains can return to past associations and familiar habits can occur, such as emotional eating. It is how we choose to deal with these challenging periods that define our outcomes after surgery. Even the most committed weight loss patients sometimes lose focus and slide off track.

Are you worried about slipping back into old habits?
Do you want to feel confident with your progress and have an empowered mindset moving forward?

The half-day workshop to facilitate your success is called:
NOURISH: How to maintain healthy lifestyle habits after weight-loss surgery.

  • You will be equipped with tools, skills and psychological strategies to sustain positive long term habits.
  • You will receive a workbook with information and practical strategies to take home with you.
