To the Staff,
What a journey this has been for me. It all started with me about to turn 60 in May. I was at a very low place in my life being almost 240 pounds (again). I knew this had to be a drastic and desperate plan because I was totally out of control (again).
I met Rob late January 4th and he explained the program while I cried and told him my life story. It was very late when Minda took my blood work as I ask her 30 questions and she comforted me by saying, “you will do great, have confidence in yourself.”
The next day, realizing I had spent $1,200.00 dollars on a program that I wasn’t fully aware of how it would work, I called crying to who I thought was a staff member but it was Doctor Steiner. I told her I was scared and had a hundred questions I felt were unanswered. She told me to come right in and Brooke would sit down with me and explain everything to me (and she did I think I was there an hour). I began to cry (again). I guess all of this was overwhelming to me. I told Brooke this is like a death. The foods you love and take comfort in will be taken away forever. She said, “no you will learn how to eat healthier and make better choices.” This really hit home because health was another reason for me to be there since my husband was diagnosed with cancer on my birthday last year. Now is for the rest of our lives. It’s time to make a change and its going to start today.
Getting through detox was a breeze. As the pounds began to start coming off my confidence was up to 50% and I felt great. I want that feeling to stay with me forever.
Doctor Steiner and went over my test results. I knew my body had gone through a lot. My husband had been sick for three years prior to finding cancer. My stress levels were out of control. Had I not enrolled in this program no telling what I would have done to my body. Thank you Dr. Steiner!
I briefly met Dr. Coomes, he seemed very nice. I will be seeing him in April for Juvederm shots and in May for Smart Lipo. Melissa, thank you for taking time to explain the procedure to me and helping me with my confidence once again and assuring me I would look great afterwards. Heather and Rachael, I have only known you for a little while but you both have been very helpful to me. Your personalities shine out. Brooke, thank you for my Laser and facials and makeup advice, but most of all for having faith in me that I could do this. Patricia, thank you for the good advice you shared with me and answering all my questions.
Melissa #2 I have only seen you at your desk, but you always manage to give a smile. Enjoy the taco salad it’s not much compared to what you all have given back to me, MY LIFE.
When I jump out of that plane in 28 days I will think back 55 lbs lighter but still dropping at 120 MPH OH MY! AM I REALLY DOING THIS! YES I AM BECAUSE I CAN! I PLAN ON HAVING MY BEST BIRTHDAY EVER! THIS WILL BE POSSIBLE BECAUSE OF YOUR HELP.
