Some of the work I am most proud of is working with patients on weight loss injections such as Mounjaro, Ozempic and Wegovy. While they tell me stories of friends having awful side effects, following strict diets or taking breaks to overeat and binge, my patients have a very different experience.
My clients have changed on the inside. They are grateful for their newfound calm around all foods and the confidence to know that as they wean off, they have the tools to deal with all the obstacles they did not know how to deal with before. Whether that is food noise or the ability to stay calm and positive in all situations relating to overeating and weight.
New research shows that weight regain happens faster after stopping the injection than it does from dieting. It is wise to get the support you need so that neither a weight problem or medicaitons have to be lifelong.
It has been found that people who dietitians support while taking a GLP-1 are more compliant and lose more weight.
Often these medications are being prescribed by people with little or no experience in disordered eating. So people are not being educated on the expected causes of eating and weight issues. Nothing is really being healed.
Weight can fall off of us because of all sorts of medications and situations.
But staying a healthy weight long term means you’ve been on the inside. Your mind has changed. How you look at food. How you treat yourself and how you manage emotions and difficult siutations.
I work with my clients in a very individual way.
You might need support in understanding the right nutrition in order to reduce side effects.
You might benefit from learning a healthy weight mindset – how people without weight issues approach food and their body without dieting or restriction.
You might need support in the weekly sessions to optimise results from the injection
And my favourite part: getting my clients to a level of confidence and success that it’s appropriate to discuss reducing their dose with their doctor.
I offer packages of support, the initial 1.5-hour meeting plus 7 follow-up sessions is €1,000
If you have health insurance, you may receive some or all of the money back from your insurer.
