“Around March 2008, my wife, who is a school
district 2 employee, told me about a place called Doctor’s Wellness. A
place where other school district employees, especially the
superintendent, had successfully lost weight. I began to think about
joining, procrastinated, gained weight… procrastinated a little more…
gained more weight to a weight of 352 pounds. I had no energy, felt
tired all the time and did not enjoy much of anything. Finally I
decided to visit Doctor’s Wellness. I was impressed, but not sold.
However, I joined – mostly to satisfy my wife – from day one I was
encouraged, given professional instruction in exercise techniques,
taught how to change my lifestyle and eat to live through nutritional
and diet information. Now “11 weeks” later, I have lost 43 pounds, have
more energy, walk 4.5 miles a day and best of all, my wife tells me I
look 15 years younger! I love being a member of the Doctors Wellness
family! 2 Corinthians 5:17”

”What has the 12- week weight management program meant to me? That’s an
incredibly simple and extremely difficult question to answer.
The simple answer is that I’ve lost 80 pounds following the program. It
gave me a better quality of life. I truly believe that I would have had
a major heart attack by now if not for this program.
The more difficult answer lies deeper. The program taught me so much
about myself, diet and nutrition for me personally, and that not just
“one size fits all.” I learned how to exercise properly and, GO FIGURE,
to actually love exercising. I developed the self-confidence necessary
to make my health better and learned that I was capable of
accomplishing so much more than I thought I was.
The program showed me that complete strangers truly cared about me and
my well-being. Doctors Wellness Center provided a comfortable place to
work out where I made friends with both the staff and the clientele. I
was welcomed with open arms and hearts. It’s truly hard to put a price
on the kind of service and rewards I have reaped from joining Doctors
Wellness Center.
I now have the tools to be: more healthy and active, live a better
life, and help others. I have been rewarded by better health and the
opportunity to impact other lives through sharing my story, my
struggles and my successes. This is the best thing I’ve ever done for
my health. From the bottom of my much healthier heart, thank you to
everyone at Doctors Wellness Center!”

"I am now six month into my progressing lifestyle changes and couldn't
be happier with the results that I have achieved. I managed to see
Thanksgiving week through with a four pound loss. My new habits and
knowledge were tested when I spent two weeks in Texas over the
Christmas holidays. It was a “vacation” from the daily workouts in the
center and it gave my body a bit of a break from the routine, though I
still remained active. I spent time traveling and eating in restaurants
and found that I was actually able to lose six additional pounds in
that time. How many people would have just been grateful not to gain
any weight? I actually lost and realized that now more than ever I was
fitter than I have ever been. I was making healthier choices and
feeling great.
I have begun the New Year with a strong commitment to my goals and have
assessed my progress. To date I have lost a total of 46.5 inches, 60
pounds and 20 percent of my body mass. My blood pressure has also
decreased significantly. Yes, 2008 has found me to be in a much
healthier state! Thank you Doctors Wellness Center."
