There are a number of ways to tackle weight concern.

Whether it’s using traditional weight management methods; aspects of the ‘non-diet’ approach; the Mediterranean diet; intermittent fasting; a modified Paleo (i.e no cutting out of food groups) or putting a greater focus on healthy eating – what is key is that the approach needs realistic and tailored to the individual. For some people who have a high Body Mass Index (BMI) and have struggled with weight loss and / or weight maintenance with other approaches, trying a Very Low Energy Diet (VLED) may be an appropriate option. With whatever strategy taken, research shows that the best outcomes are achieved with guidance, education and support from a Dietitian along the way.
