We now know that weight loss is much more than just proper exercise and diet.

The human body is complex where its own metabolism and hormonal balance can significantly impact your ability to lose weight.

Even though a good diet and level of exercise are important, weight loss/metabolic interventions like surgery or medication can help immensely to tip the balance in your favour.

If you are finding that you are trapped in a yoyo weight state despite all of your efforts, talk to us today on how we can help in your weight loss journey.

This conference was filled with cool tech that is coming our way.

Robots have been in place for awhile now but the space is evolving so quick!

Watch to the end to see the endoscopic robot inaction! This is going to be a game changer when it comes to modifying sleeves, bypass pouches and surgical join openings!

Can’t wait for all the new opportunities the innovations can bring to the field of bariatrics!

RECAPPING Day 1 of IFSO Word Conference 2025 in Santiago, Chile

This has got to be the biggest turn out for IFSO with 2000+ specialists across the world gathering here in Santiago.

We have had a jam packed day with several highlights:
- Strong focus and shift to combined therapy (medication and surgery) for treating Obesity - the dawn of a new era
- The NEW LANCET STATEMENT - Changing of the definition of Obesity to remove world wide stigma
- Shift of focus away from BMI (weight loss) to other factors in defining treatment efficacy
- Emphasis of Obesity as a disease spectrum and adjusting management pathways
- Integration of AI into the surgical space
- New Novel techniques and technology including more on duodenal endo-sleeve, ablation therapy, Surgical Magnets and a shift towards more Robotic Surgery

Its amazing how quick the field of BARIATRICS is changing and its great to be part of it.

There are a lot of benefits with weight loss medications but we do need to be mindful when taking them.

Just like surgery, weight loss medications can affect appetite and impact on nutrition. This is why it is absolutely crucial that anyone using it SHOULD be guided by an EXPERIENCED QUALIFIED TEAM of doctors and dieticians.

Part of the follow up includes regular nutritional blood tests and checks for side effects. Proper guidance with adequate nutritional intake through meal plans are also important especially when factoring in reduced drive and appetite for food.

This is has been highlighted through a MEDIA STATEMENT from DIETITIANS AUSTRALIA and it is very much worth the read.

Spent the tail end of last week in Canberra for the Annual ANZMOSS bariatric conference.
- thanks to the organising committee for organising it all. Always good to meet colleagues and friends across Australia to discuss everything bariatrics!

Of course no conference is complete without abit of family fun as we got the kids to Questacon and Corin Forest.

Looking forward now to the next big one - IFSO 2025 Santiago, Chile here I come!

Our lives belong to more than just ourselves. Staying healthy and safe from medical problems equates to a more fulfilling life with the people that you love most.

Staying motivated and focusing on your health also means that you can better care for your love ones.

Never forget who you are doing this for.

We all know how important diet and lifestyle are to sustainable weight loss.
In addition to exercise, another important aspect to lifestyle is proper sleeping habits - the implications are profound.
How are you fairing with your sleep? 😴😴😴😴😴

The joys of the pre-operative diet 😬

If you were to do it all again (and you had to pick an option), what would your choice be?

➡️ Protein Shake?
➡️ Protein Frozen Yoghurt?
➡️ Protein Yoghurt?
➡️ Protein soup?
➡️ Protein Porridge?
➡️ Protein Jelly?
➡️ Protein bars?
➡️ protein custard?

It can be argued that long term follow up is just as important as the operation itself. Weight loss management after all is a life-long commitment.

An analogy would be if you were to buy buy a manual car but then did not stick around to learn how to efficiently run through the gears, your car is never going to run as fast as it should.

Hear from Dr Cheng the four key aspects to why long term follow up is crucial:
✅ validating check points
✅ diet fine tuning and working on food psychology
✅ check on health and nutrition
✅ watch out for adverse symptoms and complications

Any patient that has been through the clinic will know that we take long term follow-up very seriously. No judgment, just pure help

If its been awhile, its never too late to catch up with your bariatric team!
