Frequently Asked Questions
-
The last thing I want to give you is a generic low-carb plan! Eating before or after surgery doesn’t have to feel completely miserable or just include meals with chicken, broccoli, and protein shakes.
But on the other hand, complex recipes with 10 ingredients that take hours to prepare is not the answer either.
This is why I designed these meal plans to be SIMPLE and delicious. You can follow along to the meal plan, or swap things out with the recipes or meal and snack ideas that are also included in the course.
-
These are self-paced courses that don’t include live hands-on coaching. However, they include alllll of the same resources my private clients get. If you purchase the course and decide you’d like some extra support, you can apply what you paid for the course to my coaching program within 30 days after purchasing!
-
Yup! I have an entire module in the Nourished Bariatric Basics Post-Op course that covers exactly how to progress from Clear & Full Liquids -> Puree & Soft Foods -> Solid Foods as well as meal ideas.
-
Absolutely! The Nourished Bariatric Basics Post-Op course is truly designed to lay the foundational habits needed for long-term weight loss.
I’ve found that when weight regain happens, it’s because these habits have gotten lost along the way or you just need a bit of a refresher on things like meal planning and building a bariatric plate.
-
The pre-op course is best to start 6 months to 1 year out from surgery. You’ll lay the foundation that sets you up to reach your weight loss goals. Plus, I give you meal plans/ideas for the 1-2 weeks leading directly up to surgery (aka the liver reduction diet) and a list of surgery must-haves.
The post-op course can be started anywhere from day 1 post-op to 1-2 years out all the way up to 5, 10, 15 years out! I’ve worked with clients to get back on track that literally had surgery when I was in kindergarten.
Whether you’re needing information on how to advance your diet (clear & full liquids -> puree & soft foods -> solid foods) or have experienced some weight regain a few years out, this course can help.
-
No problem! There is a sample meal plan for each month post-op that includes mostly plant-based foods (some have a small amount of dairy) and the information within the modules on building a bariatric plate and meal planning can easily be adapted to a plant-based diet.
-
These courses teach the same information I teach my 1:1 clients. It really lays the groundwork and takes the guesswork out of understanding how to nourish your body before and after surgery so you can successfully reach your weight loss goals.
However, I want to stress the importance of focusing on your own journey! Just because someone else lost X amount of weight in X months, doesn’t mean what you’re doing “isn’t working” or you’re doing something wrong.
