Weight loss with Better FAQs

What are the best ways for maintaining weight loss?

To maintain weight loss, it’s best to avoid fad diets and stick to a challenging yet manageable weight loss programme which combines physical exercise with healthy eating. Setting yourself weekly or monthly goals can help keep you on track, as well as joining a fitness class where the support of a group will help to motivate you.

What is a healthy meal plan for weight loss?

A healthy meal that aids weight loss reflects a balanced diet made up of the main food groups. For each meal, you should aim to have one main source of lean protein such as fish or chicken, or a vegan option such a tofu, tempeh or lentils. You should combine this with two servings of fresh vegetables, and a carbohydrate like brown rice which is packed with fibre, vitamins and minerals. Healthy fats such as those from an avocado, olive oil or a handful of nuts are great snacks as they help your body absorb crucial vitamins, and can help fight against all sorts of diseases.

How to stick to a weight loss plan?

Following a weight loss plan is never easy, but it’s even harder if your goals are unrealistic or you’re trying to lose a large amount of weight in a short space of time. The trick is to set achievable and sustainable goals, gradually introducing more exercise and healthy foods into your life so that it doesn’t feel like a punishment. It also helps to do exercise you genuinely enjoy, whether it be running, swimming, or a group class.

Joining a weight loss group can also be easier to follow and maintain consistency, as you’ll be surrounded by others on similar journeys and can come together to share support and encouragement. As always, if you’re struggling or need advice, speak to your GP.

How can I check my BMI?

Checking your BMI is easy, just use the NHS’ BMI Calculator to find out yours, as it’ll give you a good idea of whether you’re able to join the programme. Remember, if in doubt, always speak to your GP.

Can I join the weight loss programme from anywhere?

At present, only certain Better locations offer access to our in-person weight loss programme. Check the list of leisure locations below to find out if your local centre offers this service, or speak to a friendly member of our Health team for more information.

Can I refer myself for the Better weight loss programme?

There is some eligibility criteria for our programme, such as age, weight, and ability to commit to the plan for 12-weeks. If you’re unsure whether you are eligible before you apply, speak to your GP, or call our Healthwise team.

It is always best to speak to your GP if you have any questions or concerns, as they can always help offer guidance and help you decide if the plan is for you. If it is, they can then refer you to the scheme themselves.

Otherwise, you can use our self-referral portal to find a weight loss group near you and refer yourself today.
