Lap Band Dietitian

One of the most crucial steps to successfully keeping weight off for good when using a Lap Band is education, with an experienced Lap Band Dietitian. Once you know and completely understand what food to eat with the Lap Band you will easily lose weight permanently.

It is for this reason that Australia's Leading Authority in Weight Management, Consultant Dietitian Helen Bauzon has produced the “Strangle Yourself to Health” DVD, incorporating the experience of having counseled over 1500 individuals who have the Lap Band.  The DVD contains expert dietary advice including an over view of the Lap Band Procedure, presented in a very simple and practical step by step guide to directly help two clientele groups:

1. Those thinking about the Lap Band Surgery and                            
2. Those who have had Lap Band Surgery        

This will ensure you successfully manage the fluid phase post surgery, transition back onto solid food and most importantly clearly understand the required lifestyle changes long term for success.  There will be no rude surprises.

Helen’s education program offers a 100% success rate.  For example, clients often report having difficulty with food passing through the Lap Band (a common complaint) which is resolved when they are privileged to a specific “eating awareness activity” that helps the food through the Lap Band.  The flavors and textures of the food are enjoyed immensely, you feel satisfied on smaller amount of food and maintain a fantastic variety, ensuring that a nutritionally adequate diet is achieved.  The Lap Band can fail due to a lack of education and when not used properly.  This is a simple example of how the “Strangle yourself to health” DVD solves this problem, plus more as discussed via the Lap Band testimonials and written testimonials.

According to a new analysis of the 2004-2005 National Health Survey by the Australian Bureau of Statistics, one in two people are either overweight or obese.  In view of this, there is an enormous number of individuals who need help now, to lose weight.  I’m sure most, if not all, of the new years resolutions to lose weight via quick fix diets have failed by now.  Diets do not work.  There is no quick fix, stop now.  Instead, this series of DVD’s illustrating what to eat and how to incorporate a home based exercise program, is the answer for the vast majority.  The DVD’s include:

• “Eat Everything and Lose Centimeters” enjoy the freedom of never dieting again plus
• “Stay Fit Not Flabby” a 2 levels of circuit training using the Dynaband. Exercise anywhere, anytime.
