Melbourne Nutrition Services
Bariatric surgery can be positively life changing, however to achieve the best results it is important to be well supported by a caring team. Emily works closely with Dr Lara Freeman at Women’s Weight Loss Surgery, psychologist Talia Mechanic, Alevia Medical Weight Loss and Keiser to provide compassionate wholistic support.
We strongly believe that optimal health does not correlate to a number on the scales. We are here to help patients achieve their best quality of life and find their healthiest weight. We work with our patients to achieve a healthy relationship with food and their bodies, while fueling their body adequately and moving as often as possible in an enjoyable way.
Good nutrition is key to getting the best results from bariatric surgery. A dietitian plays a vital role in helping you prepare for surgery, recover safely, and maintain your results long-term. Emily provides personalised support to help you understand what to eat, how to meet your protein and vitamin needs, and how to build healthy habits that last, which means breaking away from the dieting merry-go-round. With expert, compassionate support every step of the way, you’ll feel confident, nourished, and ready to make the most of your bariatric journey.
