​​We understand how daunting it can be to embark on bariatric weight loss surgery such as Laproscopic Adjustable Gastric Band (Lap-Band®), Sleeve Gastrectomy, Roux-En-Y Gastric Bypass procedures or Intragastric Balloon, so at Simply Nutrition Dietitians we will help you to feel at ease by making the process easier for you. Through professional guidance and education we will ensure you understand the role your diet plays before and after your surgery.

   Simply Nutrition Dietitians
​A team of dedicated, warm professionals focused on understanding and listening to your needs for improved health.

What to expect when you see one of our dietitians for your bariatric weight loss surgery-

• Will support you preoperatively with guidance on what to do before your weight loss surgery.
• Will support you postoperatively intensely for 12 months and then once a year as needed. 
• We will go through your medical history and medications (ask your doctor for a medical summary before seeing us as this will help).
• Ask you to recall the food that you usually eat- keeping a food diary for a week before your appointment can be really helpful as it can be hard at times to recall what you have eaten.
• We will ask you about what physical activity you participate in.
• Will explain the role your diet plays both before and after your weight loss surgery.
• Will help you identify and overcome food-related barriers that have stopped you from achieving your goals in the past.
• Will answer your questions and put your mind at ease and ensure you're not rushed through the process.

Telehealth Consultations

If you don't have the time to get to one of our clinics or live to far away, consider a phone consultation​. An over the phone or video conference consultation is no different to a face to face consultation, the only difference is that you’re at home or at work whilst undertaking your session.  Many of our clients who live internationally, interstate and in remote areas frequently use this service and find it to be a convenient and supportive option. More information on these services available here

*Please note: Due to restrictions with our insurance. Telehealth is not available in the United States of America or Canada.
