Re:Set is an individually tailored lifestyle program assisting patients to lose weight. The program may be enhanced by the addition of weight loss medication.
Evidence shows that weight loss of 5-10% imparts significant health benefits and improves quality of life. Weight loss medication, in conjunction with a good lifestyle program, has been shown to achieve this degree of weight loss. Weight loss medication can significantly enhance your weight loss by suppressing hunger, and helping you feel full and satisfied for longer. Options will be discussed at your initial medical assessment.
Many private health funds provide rebates for allied health appointments, health and lifestyle programs and/or prescription medications. This can be checked with your individual health fund. You may also be eligible for a chronic disease management plan which may assist with the cost of subsequent allied health appointments, if required.
Before you commence the Re:Set program, you will have a thorough medical assessment by a Re:You medical practitioner, who has a special interest in bariatric medicine. This will ensure you are suitable to begin the program, which will be individually tailored to your needs.
Ongoing appointments with a Re:You medical practitioner following the completion of the program may be required. Medicare rebates may apply. The cost for weight loss medication varies significantly and this will be discussed before commencing the Re:Set program.

Re:You GPs have a special interest in bariatric medicine. At Re:You we strive to ensure that your weight loss journey is well supported by education, evidence and encouragement. We have extensive experience and are committed to you, your health and your life.
Obesity is a chronic condition which is not always possible to reverse through lifestyle measures alone. In fact only a small percentage of people will maintain any weight loss in the long term using diets or lifestyle changes. Weight is regained and often more than before (the yo-yo effect) which is very frustrating and does not achieve any health benefits.
Bariatric surgery may be an option, but it should be considered as a tool to help maintain weight loss rather than a complete solution in itself. Lifestyle modification still underpins the long term success of the various operations. You need to work with your surgery and not against it. At Re:You, we can guide you through this process to achieve long term success. We are able to refer you to experienced bariatric surgeons, and we will provide all of the follow up care after your operation.
In Australia, the 3 commonly-used operations are the Laparoscopic Adjustable Gastric Band (LapBand®), the Gastric Bypass and the Sleeve Gastrectomy. Each of the weight loss operations has its strengths and weaknesses and the decision as to which operation to choose needs to be individualised.
These appointments are paid separate to the program and may attract a Medicare rebate.
Everybody’s bariatric journey is unique and will require different input from your bariatric medical practitioner.
