Malcolm Ronald Gibbs
Malcolm Gibbs Dietitian and Fitness Trainer
About
My name is Malcolm and I am an Accredited Practising Dietitian (APD) and Level 3 Australian Registered Exercise Professional (AusREP) working in the Wollongong and Campbelltown area. I studied at the University of Wollongong completing a Bachelor of Science in Nutrition and Human Movement and a Master of Science in Nutrition and Dietetics. I have worked as a Private Practice Dietitian for 20 years and in the fitness industry for over 25 years.
My aim is to help the prevention of chronic disease, healthy aging and improving/maintaining physical fitness. I will work with you to make sure you choose sustainable lifestyle changes rather than unrealistic short term changes.
Approach: Sustainable, long-term focused. Emphasises realistic lifestyle changes over short-term fixes, with ongoing accountability and review. Combines dietary expertise with fitness training knowledge.
Weight Loss Approach
Evidence-based, sustainable lifestyle changes focused on 5-10% weight loss maintained for at least 18 months to 2 years. Uses the Australian Guide to Healthy Eating as a starting point. Emphasises ongoing review for accountability and weight maintenance rather than unrealistic short-term changes.
