Many have learned the hard way that diets do not work.
Most diets are temporary, highly restrictive programs of eating pursued purely for the purpose of losing weight, and are unfortunately damaging exercises in futility.
If you are going to lose weight and keep it off - you have to address the root causes of your weight gain.
At Wellness Garage, we believe a stratified, systematic approach is the best and most reliable approach to sustainable weight loss.

To lose weight and keep it off, we use an evidence-based, systematic, stratified and sustainable approach:
S3 Weight Management
We start by addressing two vital questions:
If there are significant medical or behavioural reasons for your weight gain - correcting these comes first.
Embracing a flexible, “better mindset”, where you seek small incremental changes in behaviour works better than a rigid, “perfect” mindset.
Sustainable, lifestyle change happens one healthy habit at a time. Over time, you find that you are eating real whole food, exercising regularly, sleeping well, coping with stress, and happy and fulfilled in relationships and purpose.
S3 Weight Management
We start by addressing two vital questions:
- Are your current lifestyle behaviors - nutrition, exercise, sleep, stress tolerance, relationships and purpose - contributing to your inability to lose weight.
- Are there medical reasons why you have gained weight or why you may be struggling to lose weight.

For many people these changes are sufficient to unlock their ability to lose weight.
For others we need to go deeper. In the end, all weight loss requires becoming efficient at burning fat for fuel. Unfortunately, some people, despite good nutrition are unable to effectively burn fat: they lack metabolic flexibility. Physiological testing provides the answer to whether you are metabolically flexible and able to burn fat. If the answer is no, pursuing specific strategies to unlock your ability to burn fat comes next. |

If at this stage you are metabolically flexible, have healthy behaviors, and have dealt with any contributing medical issues, the next thing to examine is your resting metabolic rate as determined by physiologic testing and compare it to your actual caloric intake, ensuring that there is a sufficient deficit to ensure weight loss.
