"If you do not think a good obesity solution has roots in modern psychology
you might be happily surprised after your first consultation."

-
The Be-Slim Coaching Method was
founded on a programme designed to combat recidivism among patients who
underwent a bariatric intervention such as the
Gastric Balloon, Gastric Bypass
Surgery, and Gastric Band intervention.
-
Without a doubt, bariatric surgery remains the most effective modality to
induce sustainable weight loss in the morbidly obese. We are talking about
patients needing to lose 100-plus pounds.
-
One of the problems is the propensity of patients to regain the weight they have lost.
-
The nonsurgical treatment of severe obesity can be a lifelong struggle with
high recidivism and suffering if the wrong methodology is used. Modern
psychology is the answer.
"The Be-Slim Coaching Method
acknowledges the mental health, lifestyle & behaviour aspects of obese
patient life and derives from
constant patient assessment and continued evaluation a custom, cognitive
therapy for each person."

The Be-Slim Coaching Method is indicated for
-
morbidly obese, level II and III obese patients who need to lose a
modest amount of weight in order to to be eligible for bariatric surgery in the
operating room (in other words they are too big for the O/R table) ;
-
overweight patients (BMI 25 - 29) who would be
candidates for liposuction, tummy tuck, breast reduction, and other
procedures but need to restore themselves to a healthier state by
reducing their overweight condition;
-
modestly overweight patients plus level 1 obese patients
who are
dedicated to achieving their goals will not likely need any other method
of weight control than the
Be-Slim Coaching Method
;
-
any patient who is not a candidate for bariatric surgical intervention
with a need to reduce weight.

Be-Slim Coaching Method can suit morbidly
obese patients who have had bariatric surgery. Whereas no one disputes the ability of morbidly obese patients to lose weight, the challenge is to maintain weight loss in the long term.
That is where our program serves a useful purpose for assisting their
surgeons and MD in maintaining a steady weight loss with an attached
adjustment in lifestyle with our ongoing support. Such weight-loss maintenance is critical to achieving the beneficial effects of a reduced weight.

We do not challenge the fact that bariatric surgery for the morbidly obese is the only treatment modality that produces significant, sustained, long-term weight loss in patients with severe obesity.
We augment that process for seriously obese patients. In addition, permanent weight loss through bariatric surgery reduces the relative risk of death by 35% to 89%, depending on the study, and produces significant pharmacoeconomic
benefits.
