Healthy weight

Achieving a healthy weight range is fantastic! However, keep in mind it’s not just about hitting a number on the scale. It’s about finding a balance that suits your body composition, including fat stores and muscle mass. This balance is crucial for preventing future health concerns.

Weight loss is a specialist area at 121 Dietitian and we have helped thousands of people safely lose weight and most importantly keep this in control and enjoy life.

Obese

It can feel lonely and overwhelming when you are faced with the thought of losing weight. Chances are like many in the overweight BMI range you have tried on many occasions to tackle this yourself or with some form of general programme and ended up back to the weight you were or heavier.
