Weight

Weight is complex. It is influenced by many factors, including nutrition, metabolism, hormones, gut health, lifestyle, and medical history. Approaches that focus solely on rapid weight loss can increase the risk of unwanted side effects and are often difficult to maintain long term.

At Olivia The Dietitian, I provide personalised, clinically informed weight management support to help you make sustainable changes that support both your weight goals and overall health.

Common weight concerns


I work with individuals seeking dietetic support for a range of weight-related concerns, including:

  • Difficulty losing weight despite previous efforts

  • Weight regain following repeated dieting or weight loss medication

  • Struggling with side effects from rapid weight loss such as fatigue, hair loss, or muscle loss

  • Unintentional or unwanted weight loss

  • Support with healthy weight gain

  • Improving health markers alongside weight-related goals, such as cardiovascular health.

Weight management support is always tailored to your individual circumstances, medical history, and goals.

Supporting healthy weight loss


When weight loss is desired, my approach focuses on health, nutritional adequacy, and sustainability, rather than rapid or restrictive methods.

Dietetic support may include:

  • Ensuring adequate energy & protein intake to support muscle mass

  • Nutrient adequacy to reduce the risk of deficiencies linked to hair loss, fatigue, or poor recovery

  • Strategies to support lean muscle preservation alongside fat loss

  • Guidance to support consistency and appetite regulation

  • Behaviour change strategies that fit into real life.

The aim is gradual, sustainable progress that supports overall health and reduces the risk of adverse effects often seen with overly restrictive diets.

My approach to weight management


As a Specialist Registered Dietitian with prior NHS dietetic experience, I follow professional standards and guidance consistent with HCPC principles. My weight management consultations involve:

  • A comprehensive assessment of diet, weight history, lifestyle, and health factors

  • Consideration of metabolic, hormonal, and gastrointestinal influences

  • Collaborative goal setting based on health and sustainability

  • Individualised nutrition strategies tailored to your needs

  • Ongoing review and adjustment as required

No single approach suits everyone. All recommendations are personalised and focused on long-term health outcomes.

Why work with a dietitian for weight management

  • Clinically informed, personalised nutrition guidance

  • Support that prioritises health, not extreme restriction

  • Monitoring to reduce the risk of nutritional deficiencies or muscle loss

  • A structured, professional approach aligned with healthcare standards
