Hi ,
, summer has come to an end, and I wanted to ask you -
How have you felt about your health and weight balance this summer?
Did you promise yourself this will be the year you finally lose the weight forever? Did you make any progress? Or did your life get busy again, and the decision was postponed for another few months... years?
And somewhere in the back of your mind, you may know -
"If I don't change something, will next summer feel exactly the same?"
I'm asking because you've already been in touch with me about weight loss surgery. That tells me you were already thinking seriously about change and recognise that your weight is negatively affecting your life. Is it tiredness, hypertension, body and joint pain that limits your mobility? Maybe even you're pre-diabetic or you suffer from Diabetes type 2? Hormonal issues? Sleep problems?
These issues are not about - what anyone else thinks about your weight. It's about you - quality of your life, how you feel every day, and how fully you're able to enjoy your life.
Maybe you've tried a GLP-1 medication and it's working well for you. Or perhaps you experienced difficult side effects, found the ongoing cost too high, or simply didn't achieve the results you hoped for.
Maybe you're just looking for a different, more long-term approach rather than relying on medication indefinitely...
Sometimes it's difficult to find someone you can discuss these questions with openly-without judgement and without being pushed towards a particular decision.
What I want to say to you - you don't have to decide on bariatric surgery just because you speak to me.
My role is to genuinely help you understand whether bariatric surgery could be an appropriate option for you, what it involves, and how it compares with the path you're currently taking.
Here is a review from one our patients Emma -

High quality care from a professional and supportive team
I spent a couple of years considering, thinking about and researching weight loss surgery before I came across weightloss Latvia. Ilva was wonderful, happy to call me and talk things through several times as I considered my decision. When I finally decided to go ahead the process of booking was really easy, and I was given a clear understanding what would happen. I went alone but Ilva felt like a friend from the moment I arrived, everything was taken care of, taxi, hotel, appointments and my hospital stay. The nurses and Dr Oleg were lovely, honest, supportive and compassionate. I'm so glad I went ahead and that I found the right people to support me through it. I can't recommend Weight Loss Latva enough if your considering WLS, it's been life changing and I'd highly recommend giving them a call if your considering it, there was no hard sell, just lots of support and understanding.
My true belief is that carrying extra 8 stone (50kg) on your body definitely makes the life much heavier literally and it steals away your best version of yourself.
Because ultimately, this isn't simply about becoming smaller. Size does not matter really.
It's about your health, energy, mobility, confidence and being able to participate more fully in the life you have now.
If bariatric surgery is something you are still considering, simply reply to this email to book a free, private consultation with me. We can talk through where you are now, what you've already tried and what options may be worth exploring.
No pressure. Just an honest conversation. To see if we can help you to change your life.
Talk soon,
