Bariatric nutrition for lifelong health, whatever your path.
Supporting people through bariatric surgery, weight loss medications, and diet & lifestyle modification.

Nutrition Support for Every Stage of Your Journey

“Bariatric” care isn't just about bariatric surgery.
Bariatric simply refers to the treatment and management of obesity.

That care may include bariatric surgery, weight loss medications, diet and lifestyle modification, or a combination of approaches over time.

At Eat Bari Well, I focus on the nutrition piece: helping you build the knowledge, skills and sustainable habits that support your health, whatever your treatment path.

My approach emphasizes nourishment over restriction, progress over perfection, and practical strategies that work in real life.

Whether you're preparing for surgery, taking a weight loss medication, navigating life years after surgery, or managing your health through nutrition and lifestyle changes, you'll find support designed to meet you where you are.

Here’s Where to Start

If you're preparing for bariatric surgery, start with my Pre-Op Program: Bariatric Power Prep.

For just about everyone else, start with a Nutrition Audit.

Start With a Nutrition Audit

Your Nutrition Audit is all about you.

Think of it as your personal roadmap — designed to give you clarity about what to focus on right now.


Together we’ll look at where things currently stand for you, what you’re hoping to change or improve, and where you may be getting stuck. I’ll help you make sense of it all, identify what matters most, and give you clear, practical steps to focus on next.

Everything is personalized to you: your nutrition, your treatment approach, where you are in your journey, and the specific challenge or goal you want help with.

What Would You Like Help With?

This might be your biggest challenge, or a goal you are working toward.

  • Has your weight loss stalled?

  • Are you experiencing weight regain?

  • Feeling hungrier than before or grazing more often?

  • Confused about what - or how much - to eat?

  • Need help shifting from weight loss into maintenance?

  • Doing "all the right things" but not seeing the results you expected?

  • Something else you’d like help with?

Simply submit an intake form and 2-Day Food Diary.

I'll review your nutrition, eating patterns, habits, and lifestyle, then create a detailed report and personalized action plan just for you.

You won’t get a generic laundry list of things to change. Together, we’ll focus on what matters most for you and the changes likely to have the biggest impact.

I’m Serious About Nutrition. And Good Food.

I specialize in nutrition for people living with obesity. But I’m also a trained chef and a lifelong foodie.

So when I talk about nutrition, I’m never just talking about nutrients, numbers or rules. I’m talking about food.

If you’ve spent years trying to lose weight, or you’re using surgery or medication to help manage your weight, it can start to feel like food is mostly about rules. How much protein? How many calories? How much water?

Those things matter. But there’s more to good nutrition than hitting a protein target.

I want you eating enough protein, but I also want you getting fibre, healthy fats, quality carbohydrates, vitamins, minerals and a wide variety of nourishing foods. I want us thinking about the quality of what you eat, not just the numbers attached to it.

And I want you to enjoy your food.

Food is nourishment, but it’s also pleasure, culture, family and connection. Taking care of your health shouldn’t mean losing those things. It means learning how to make room for them in a way that supports the life and health you want.

Health is bigger than the scale. Weight is one outcome. Not the only one that matters.

Hi, I'm Jenn.

You're not alone.

I'm here to help.

Why my approach is different.

Professional Expertise. Personal Understanding.

I am a nutritionist, trained chef and Naturopathic Doctor (retired), with over 25 years of experience in the fields of health, wellness, food & nutrition.

I am also a bariatric patient.

My professional experience gives me expertise.

My personal experience gives me insight, humility & empathy.

I've spent decades helping people navigate nutrition, health, and behavior change, as both a practitioner and in my own life. I understand the difference between what looks good on paper and what actually works in real life.

I'll help you build practical, sustainable habits that support long-term health while moving away from restrictive diet-culture thinking.

Let's move beyond perfectionism, guilt, and all-or-nothing thinking, toward a more balanced approach centered on nourishment, health, and consistency - not just weight loss.
