At OCC, we believe our patients deserve comprehensive, ongoing care to achieve the best possible result, and true long-term success. Our partnership with our patients includes a five-year follow-up program. The program is delivered through our online support groups and our team of U.S.-based on-call patient coordinators. When you undergo weight loss surgery at the OCC state-of-the-art clinic, you are not just another patient – you are part of our family, and we support you for the long term.
We guide you through the three phases of weight loss
Losing the excess weight goes through three basic phases and we guide you throughout the journey. After your surgery is completed, you will be guided on the nutritional care for each phase:
- Recovery nutritional care: This phase lasts for about 40 days following your surgery.
- Extreme weight loss nutritional care: This phase runs for 40 days to 9 months.
- Weight stabilization nutritional care: This phase starts at 9 months and continues thereafter.
Nutrition and you – lifestyle changes that work for the long term.
Our approach is to ensure you understand how your body functions, and how your body, being starved of the critical nutrients necessary to good health has resulted in a combination
Our nutritional counseling support and you.
Modern food production involves growing food with chemical fertilizers in nutrient-depleted soil. Meats are produced by animals artificially fattened, and most commercial grains are genetically modified. These foods contain almost none of many critical nutrients. As the body is starved of the nutrients it needs, the entire system is impacted, leading to poor health, excessive weight gain, and obesity. We ensure you fully understand these problems, and the underlying cause of your condition, and how implementing dietary changes will help rebuild your body naturally, addressing the actual underlying reasons for the condition.
The phases of the journey to weight loss and better health
Your nutritional needs change at different phases of your journey. You will be provided with all the guidance you need to make lifestyle changes to restore your body and live a healthier, more energetic, happier life in the years ahead. We don’t leave you to try on your own – everyone we treat gets the help they need to have a successful weight loss journey.
