"After many years of being frustrated and fed up with my weight, as well as with the direction my life and health were going because of it, I made up my mind that I was going to lose the weight and that there was no going back."

"The revelation was back in the summer of 2004, and I was at my highest weight ever, 238 pounds.  Making the decision to take control of my weight was only the beginning, because then came the tough part – actually doing it.

"I knew that if I was going to lose the weight and keep it off, it would take a lot of hard work on my part, but that didn’t mean I couldn’t ask for help.  And the help I so desperately needed I found at Weight Management Medical Center.  Dr. Pierson, and the staff at WMMC, provided me with the information, support, encouragement, and accountability to make the changes in my life necessary to successfully lose the weight and maintain that loss.  The thing that surprised me the most about my weight loss journey at WMMC was that it turned out to be easier than I had imagined.  Now, that’s not to say that I didn’t have to do my part or work at it, but I had built it up in my mind to be a bigger obstacle and challenge than what it was in reality.

"The significant weight loss I achieved is a direct result of WMMC’s weight loss program and has positively affected almost every aspect of my life.  At my current weight of 160 pounds, not only am I in better health, but I feel better both physically and mentally.  I am more comfortable in my own skin.  All of that adds up to me being a better friend, employees, and a generally happier person.  I have taken on challenges that I couldn’t have dreamed of before, such as the 2006 Breast Cancer 3-Day Walk for a total of 60 miles!  I shudder to think where my life, and my weight would be right now had I not found Weight Management Medical Center.  With them as my guide and my personal determination to change my body my entire life is better!"
