Guiding you with structure, support and community so your transformation becomes lasting and confident.
Life After: Next Chapter is a comprehensive 12-week transformation program designed for individuals who have undergone bariatric surgery or are learning to adapt to the life that follows it. Created by Novara Academy founder Ingvar Ingolfsson — himself a bariatric surgery patient and long-term success story — the program fills the critical gap in postoperative support that most people face.
While surgery changes your stomach, life after surgery changes so much more. Many people experience unexpected emotional shifts, new identity challenges, rapid physical changes, and complicated relationships with food — all while trying to build new habits without a clear roadmap. Traditional healthcare systems may provide medical checkups, but rarely offer the deep lifestyle, mindset, and long-term behavioral guidance needed to truly succeed.

Through weekly lessons, structured habit-building frameworks, small-group coaching, and continuous accountability, the program guides you through the real-world challenges of post-surgery life. You’ll learn how to create sustainable routines, manage emotions, rebuild your relationship with food, strengthen your body safely, and navigate the psychological and social changes that follow major weight loss.
This is not just after-care — it’s your blueprint for long-term success, confidence, and a healthier identity in your “next chapter.”
