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.

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:

Consideration of metabolic, hormonal, and gastrointestinal influences
Collaborative goal setting based on health and sustainability
Individualised nutrition strategies tailored to your needs
