Weight management

The nutrition and dietetic service provides specialist services for weight management for people who need to lose weight. Dietitians use specialist behaviour management skills to work with individuals who are obese to enable them to make changes to their eating habits and lifestyle. 

Strict diets have been found not to work as any weight lost is easily regained once the diet finishes. We use a lifestyle approach that supports permanent changes to eating habits and teaches people the skills they need to lose weight and manage their weight successfully in the long term. 

The dietitians provide a service to help people with  

  • BMI 30 to 35 who have other health conditions such as diabetes or heart disease. 
  • BMI 30 to 40 with no other health conditions.
