LEAF ROOT® Program Components

  • Six Sessions over 24 weeks

    You will receive coordinated care from one of our LEAF Registered Dietitians and a LEAF Physician who specializes in bariatric care at each of the six program appointments.

  • Monthly visits with your LEAF Registered Dietitian

    Your LEAF Registered Dietitian will help you set healthy, achievable goals and provide you with nutrition counselling. Together, you will develop a nutrition and behaviour change plan that meets your needs and allows you to reach your health and weight goals.

  • Optional Meal Replacement

    Using meal replacements will help you increase your accuracy of calorie control, reduce food decisions, and ensure you are meeting your nutritional needs. In the LEAF ROOT program, up to a maximum of two Optifast®900 (or another type) meal replacements may be used in a day. For example, you might choose to have a shake for breakfast and nutritious food choices for lunch and supper.

  • Meal Planning

    Your LEAF Registered Dietitian will invite you to a meal planning portal that is customized for you. You will have 24/7 access both online and via the app so you can plan, shop, and prepare healthy, delicious meals that meet your needs and tastes. Access this dynamic nutrition tool for the full six months of your program.
