Day 8
Bariatric Surgery Nutrition 101 Course
Are you looking for a DEEP dive into all things NUTRITION-related when it comes to food and eating after bariatric surgery?
Introducing Our Nutritional Masterclass!
In the following 6 modules, you’ll dive deep into the core bariatric nutritional concepts that will help you feel back on track and in the driver’s seat of living the life you’ve always imagined!
Module 1: Back To The Basics
In this module, you will refresh your memory of the standardized bariatric guidelines around:
1) Appropriate serving sizes
2) Macronutrients
3) The importance of drinking water after weight loss surgery
Module 2: Sugar
Sugar is everywhere! You’ll begin to understand the importance of:
> Limiting sugar-sweetened beverages
> How juice & smoothies can impact your weight loss after surgery
> Why sugar feels so addicting
> The effects that aspartame has on your body.
Module 3: How To “Eat Clean”
This module kicks off with an important lesson on why consuming minimally processed food is so important for your long-term health and wellness. From there, you’ll learn how to read nutritional labels and determine if a food item is in alignment with healthy bariatric guidelines.
You’ll continue to put your knowledge into action (and will tie all of these concepts together) by learning how to make healthier swaps in your pantry with multiple behind-the-scenes video tutorials using Coach Kate’s kitchen as an example.
Get ready to have a completely restocked kitchen full of healthy foods by the end of this lesson!
Module 4: Meal Planner Template
In this module, you will download a 17 page Meal Planner Template that will serve as a guide to teach you HOW to organize and plan meals for the week. But the work doesn’t end there!
As you go through this lesson, you’ll learn how to:
1) Work on your mindset around meal planning
2) Add in a variety of meals to your weekly menu
2) Stay consistent with your efforts
3) Address snacking with our helpful 80:20 strategy
Lastly, we’ll put all of the concepts together and teach you how to give yourself credit for all of your hard work and small wins along the way!
Module 5: Cooking & Meal Planning
We’ll put your meal prepping skills to use with some fun in the kitchen! In this module, you’ll get your hands on helpful bariatric recipes and cookbooks that will make cooking in the kitchen exciting (and easy!).
You’ll also join one of our Bariatric Dietitians in the kitchen for a cooking demonstration that will not only have your mouth watering, but will leave you feeling re-inspired to don your apron and put on your chef’s hat!
The cooking demonstration also includes a helpful Q&A session with some of your most pressing nutritional questions around:
> Cooking for one
> Modifying recipes to make them healthier
> Low carb options
> How to repurpose meals
> Carbs versus net carbs
> How to adjust recipes based on the different bariatric staged diets
But that’s not all! This module will also take you outside of your home kitchen and teach you how to choose healthy items at fast food joints and restaurants when you’re eating out with friends and family.
Module 6: Accountability
Having the knowledge and education of what to do after weight loss surgery is 50% of the battle. The other 50% lies in the action that comes with consistently implementing what you’ve learned throughout the Nutritional Masterclass.
In this module, we’ll invite you to link up with some of our bariatric members so you don’t have to navigate all of this alone. Having a bariatric buddy will not only sky rocket your success, but will help you stay consistent, accountable, and above all- HAVING FUN (imagine that!?) as you continue to navigate on your weight loss surgery journey.
