Health & Food

The focus of any successful and sustainable weight loss program is developing both a healthy diet and a healthy relationship with food. Understand food, nutrition and your eating behaviours, then act on that knowledge in a positive way and it will contribute to your weight loss. Achieving weight loss and being happy helps you maintain your new diet and your new size.

Eating your way to weight loss involves understanding diet essentials. With the Gastric Band Service we encourage change and understanding of moderation and nutritional basics.

Some see carbohydrates as a much-maligned, yet vital fuel source along with proteins and fats. It’s not carbs that you need to give up it is ‘junk’. Whole food carbs are good food, necessary food. Choose good carbs like whole fruits and vegetables, whole grain breads (100 percent whole grain, not just labelled whole grain), beans, brown rice (yes, rice) and potatoes.

Drinking fruit juice and plenty of water, eating fresh fruit and vegetables will all contribute to effective weight loss. It’s natural, it’s healthy and it’s much cheaper than manufactured food and drink.

The fundamental underlying goal is eating is a healthy nutritionally balanced diet. Eating mindfully and choosing a nutritionally balanced meals every day stops you becoming physiologically hungry.  You become more 'appetite aware' and are then able to tune in to your appetite. It is vital that people appreciate this dynamic. Nutritionally balanced meals contribute to maintaining a healthy long-term weight loss.
