Dr Nick Fuller is a globally recognised obesity expert from the University of Sydney and Royal Prince Alfred Hospital. He has degrees in exercise physiology, nutrition and dietetics, and a doctorate in obesity and weight management.

He is the resident obesity expert on Channel 9’s Today Show and is the author of three best-selling books on the Interval Weight Loss program.

In this episode, we discuss:

  • Main contributors to the obesity epidemic.
    • Some people diet themselves heavier.
  • Barriers to long-term weight-loss success.
    • Your body fights back to gain weight.
  • Evidence-based tips to use with the patient for long-term weight-loss.
    • Eating from big to small.
    • Keto diets and intermittent fasting make bold claims but cannot back it up with science. 
  • The six principles of the interval weight loss plan:
    1. You can't fight evolution.
    2. Reach for nature first
    3. Full rainbow
    4. Use chopsticks
    5. Choose to move
    6. No blue light after twilight

Television Wants Visual Attention

When you watch a weight loss program on television, the show's goal is to gain visual attention by showing dramatic weight loss and body transformations in quite a short period of time. 

Dr Nick Fuller says these shows have got it all wrong, and most people who lose a sizable amount of weight will more than likely put in all back on again, plus a little bit more. 

Your body will fight back, and it will win. 

Final Tip

You have the ability to educate your patients, friends and colleagues. And when they are educated, they will feel informed and empowered.
