Weight Management

... The goal of losing weight should be re-focused from weight loss alone...to weight management, achieving the best weight possible in the context of your overall health

Weight gain can be instigated by food intolerance, vitamin and mineral deficiencies, hormone imbalances, lack of sleep, headaches, irritability, environmental sensitivities, parasites, bloating and tiredness. If these are causes in your case, dieting regimes may not be successful.

Turning to exercise in these situations, may also not be successful.

So what can be done ?

The aims of the Weight Management Clinic at Bromley Health Management are to :

>    ascertain the cause of your weight gain through health screening
>    set mutually agreed achievable goals
>    provide you with a life long nutritious eating plan for long term weight management. ALL plans are individually tailored
>    provide one to one support on a weekly basis (if appropriate) throughout the programme with weekly weigh-ins, taking measurements and analysis of body fat composition
>    advise on drainage/detoxifying regimes, where appropriate
>    referral to other professionals, if appropriate

How may Weight Management benefit me?

Embarking on a Weight Management programme requires a wholistic approach. Your weekly consultations will provide you with :

>    Sound nutritional verbal and written advice with information provided in a folder for you to keep
>    Where appropriate referral to a Personal Trainer or professional organisation
>    Appropriate lifestyle changes
>    Emotional support to include the use of Bach Flower Remedies

>    Improvement in weight related health risks
>    Overall sense of well-being
>    Control and responsibility for your health
>    Self satisfaction and sense of achievement

As your physical and emotional status improves, one to one support will continue to take place on a monthly basis, if necessary. At each visit further assessments will take place to monitor progress, dietary patterns, lifestyle, exercise programmes, emotional status and overall well-being.

Such an approach has proved time and again to be an effective method of managing weight.
