Correspondence (at home) Option
Firstly, you will have your comprehensive dietary and lifestyle assessment. Before your fully qualified Dietitian can devise your personalised program, and chooz to looz Menu plans and your first goal weight, the Dietitian has to assess fully your weight history, current dietary intake and lifestyle, attitudes, individual behaviours, family eating habits, hunger level variations, food preferences, and the environmental and your emotional influences on your food intake, together with identification of problem areas.
Following your comprehensive assessment, the Dietitian will develop a nutritional weight loss plan and a personalised written menu plan and daily food guide, and this will be provided to you to suit your specific needs, hunger levels, lifestyle, tastebuds, eating habits and usual meal routine, as much as possible.
In addition to your tailored weight loss plans, you will receive your chooz to looz pack, packed full of valuable information, including 7 chooz to looz books titled, 'Getting Started', Food Preparation Hints, Eating Out, Motivation – Getting it and Keeping it, Understanding Food Labels, Exercise – For Fun, Fitness and Weight Control, Eating Habits and Weight Control, and Managing Seasonal and Holiday Eating – particularly Christmas and Winter. In addition, you will receive information leaflets, including a weight loss chart and graph to plot your weight loss progress and food record charts to record your food intake.
Your goal weight will be evaluated practically and realistically.
For your economy and convenience, all of the above will be done by correspondence, in your own time, without leaving your home.
You will then have 6 fortnightly phone appointments with the Dietitian, over the next 12 weeks, where the Dietitian will be able to continue to assist you, motivate you and support you as you progress towards your weight loss goal.
