In today's episode I go through the difference between an active weight loss phase (first 18-24 months post-bariatric surgery) and the maintainance phase (all the time after that!).
Bariatric surgery is no diet. It's no quick fix. Remember the habits and behaviours you're building in the first 12 months are what will carry you through successfully in the months and years to follow.
Work really hard on instilling these behaviours as habits and you'll notice the weight lost remains off long-term.Let's chat:

This episode is practical. Are you struggling to find high protein snacks after the surgery? Do you find the supermarket overwhelming?
In this episode, I go through how to pick a better protein bar, what to look out for, brands to look at (not sponsored) and whole food alternatives. It is all well and good to have protein bars, but consider the overall value of the food as well. I balance this by highlighting protein bars that are manufactured but then also whole food options that provide similar protein amounts and more micronutrients.
You'll want a notepad for this one or your shopping list!Let's chat:

Today we’re diving into a topic that affects many women who have undergone bariatric surgery—menopause and the potential for weight regain.
Menopause is a natural phase of life that every woman will experience, usually between the ages of 45 and 55, though it can happen earlier or later. It marks the end of menstruation and is characterized by a significant drop in estrogen and other hormones. This hormonal shift can lead to a range of symptoms like hot flashes, mood swings, and sleep disturbances. But for many women, one of the most frustrating aspects of menopause is weight gain, particularly around the abdomen.
I go through several strategies to help manage this phase of life effectively. Remember, this is a journey, and it’s okay to ask for help along the way. Menopause is a significant transition, but with the right tools and support, you can continue to thrive.

Intuitive eating is a straightforward concept. It involves making peace with all types of food, unlike traditional diets that restrict or ban certain items. Instead of categorizing food as “good” or “bad,” intuitive eating encourages you to listen to your body and eat what feels right for you.
You might think this means eating whatever you want whenever you want, but that’s not the case. Experts explain that intuitive eating involves tapping into your body’s natural signals to determine when you’re hungry or satisfied.
By practicing intuitive eating, you also let go of the idea that you need to lose or gain weight to achieve a specific appearance. The focus shifts to choosing foods that support your overall physical and mental well-being.
It can be difficult to incorporate after bariatric surgery but by trying and taking a gentle approach you can learn what foods suit you and minimise foods that don't make you feel good. I go through how you can use it after the surgery and practical considerations to implement.Let's chat:

Bariatric Surgery is challenging - it's a time of growth. You may find yourself being challenged with the 'norms' you have always known and found it hard to change those old habits that you used to lean on to manage emotions or stress.
In today's episode, I am going through four mindset shifts you can make to help make the overall surgery process easier and save yourself heartache as you know you're not alone in the emotional growth post-op. If you are struggling further, please consider seeing a psychologist to help expand on this more in your own world. I hope you take away some nuggets of wisdom and remember, there is no destination after bariatric surgery - it's a journey of growth and discovery.Let's chat:

If you've just had weight loss surgery, calorie counting can be extremely unhelpful. When someone is struggling with weight regain, yes it can be helpful, and I speak about that here.
Calorie counting does not take into account your overall nutrient intake, your fluid intake, and can exacerbate your past history of yo-yo dieting. If this resonates with you, have a listen and consider tracking nutrients not calories.Let's chat:

This week I delve into some of the common myths and misconceptions I come across working as a bariatric dietitian.
It's common to think that this is THE THING to stop me from gaining weight ever again and thinking that this is the change that will stop "all my bad habits". But on the contrary, it is important to realise that the body is CLEVER. It ends up working with the surgery, and if you don't work WITH it, then you may not achieve the results you desire.

In this episode, I go through how the process of weight loss surgery is undertaken in Australia. This may vary from clinic to clinic so please check with your preferred clinic. The costs vary depending on the surgeon and location so it's best to do your own research and find a clinic that suits your needs.

Bariatric surgery changes the anatomy of the gastrointestinal system and the absorption. This also affects how your body responds to nutrients long term. There is a significant risk of nutrient defciencies particularly as time goes on.
You might feel well but aren't actually realising that it can take years for a deficiency to develop.
I go through signs and symptoms to be aware of. Remember you need to take a bariatric multivitamin long term and get annual bloods. See your healthcare team for more support in this area.Let's chat:
