Meet Emily, our dietitian.

If you’ve tried different approaches before and found it difficult to maintain results, you’re not alone.

Understanding that weight management can be influenced by factors beyond just effort can change how you approach it. It allows for a plan that’s more realistic, more supportive, and tailored to you.

That’s where the right guidance makes a difference, focusing on what’s actually sustainable over time.

What can you expect after surgery?

There is usually a period of adjustment as your body heals and your routine changes.

This may include changes to how you eat, your daily habits, and ongoing support from your care team.

Everyone’s experience is different, so your journey will be guided based on your individual progress.

Meet Shane, our exercise physiologist.

For many people, exercise can feel like one of the biggest challenges, especially if past experiences haven’t been positive.

Shane focuses on creating an approach that feels manageable and tailored to where you’re starting from.

It’s about building confidence with movement and finding something you can maintain over time, with the right support around you.

What does nutrition look like after bariatric surgery?

After surgery, your diet typically changes to smaller portions and a structured approach to eating.

Depending on the procedure, you may be able to eat a range of foods over time, but in reduced quantities. Some approaches involve more restriction on food types than others.

There is usually a focus on protein intake and recommended supplements, with meals often around an entrée size.

Your nutrition plan will be guided and adjusted by your clinical team based on your individual needs and progress.

When can you drive after surgery?

Most patients can return to driving around 5 days after surgery, depending on their recovery.

Always follow your surgeon’s advice, as this can vary for each individual.

Easter is often seen as a setback when it comes to health goals, but in reality, progress isn’t defined by a single weekend.

Enjoying a few chocolates or meals outside your usual routine won’t undo the work you’ve put in. What matters far more is what happens consistently over time.

Sustainable weight management isn’t about restriction. It’s about building habits you can maintain, even during occasions like this.

If you’re thinking about making a long-term change, this is exactly where it starts.

Taking the first step can feel like the hardest part.

Knowing where to go, who you’ll meet, and what to expect can make all the difference.

From the beginning, you’re supported by a full team, including dietitians and an exercise physiologist, all working with you throughout your journey.

Everyone’s path is different, which is why it all starts with a conversation.

Changing the way you approach food during a weight loss journey can feel overwhelming.

That is where the right guidance can make a difference.

Meet Emily, our clinical bariatric dietitian.

With nearly 30 years of experience, Emily helps patients understand how to navigate nutrition changes and build sustainable habits around food.

For patients, this means having someone in their corner who provides guidance, encouragement and support as they work toward becoming their healthiest and happiest selves.

Many people blame themselves when their weight changes after bariatric surgery.

They may think they have failed, that the surgery didn’t work, or that they simply need more willpower.

But weight changes after surgery are influenced by many factors including hormones, stress, life circumstances and metabolic changes.

Addressing these misconceptions matters because self-blame often stops people from seeking the support that can help them move forward.

Surgery is a powerful tool, but long-term progress is supported by understanding, guidance and ongoing care.
