If you need to lose weight then we aim for a modest weight loss of 5-10% of your current body weight. With success, and if warranted, further weight loss can be attempted. We plan for an average weight loss of 0.5 to 1 kg per week over a period of 6 months, with subsequent goals based on the amount of weight lost. Even with the best effort, weight loss may not be consistent, so do not be discouraged by short term plateaus or minor increases from week to week. Look for a downward trend over time.
We will focus on gradually changing behaviour. It is a mistake to try and make too many changes at once. Do not commit to any changes that you cannot maintain for the rest of your life - for example, “I’m never going to eat cookies” – you’re bound to fail. Do not skip meals or fast as this may cause you to overeat at subsequent meals.
Remember, if you change your behaviour, weight loss and improved health will follow.
The unique Revitalise program contains a six week food plan, portion plate (the easy and fun way to portion control), grazing box (banish those chocolate and cookie cravings by always having some healthy, tasty alternatives to hand), water bottle and tape measure and your online support.
