Hi there, I'm just starting.
Hi Kelly-Anne,
Well..... my story is a little different than many others.
I didn't want surgery when I first started with the Weight Wise Clinic. So they worked with me month after month to teach me how to loose weight... With their guidance and support, I was able to loose a little over a 100 lbs in about a year.
Then I had an extremely frightening thought. 'What happens if it all comes back, like it always did before?'.... so I decided to have surgery. Dr. Birch was so happy with my final choice that I was booked for surgery within the month.... Surgery happened on Aug 19/10.
I've been steadily loosing since then. Lately the loss is very slow... only 10lbs since the New Year. But it's all been so WORTH IT.... I love my new body... it actually is a true representative of the actual ME!!!
During the first year.... I worked with my NUT and a Psych and my RN to make it all happen. The first couple of months, was journalling, and discovering where my problems were. Then we started paring down the portion sizes and my NUT would decide on a monthly basis which foods would be removed from my diet on that month... it was BRILLIANT... I was never deprived, never starving, it was so gradual that it was easy... but I had to stay on track and use the 'Mind Power' that my psych was teaching me.
Nothing was easy... I had to do a lot of 'Soul Searching' and really had to pick up my confidence and 'Gumption'. But 'oh boy' did I learn a lot!!!!!!
I will always consider the people at the Weight Wise Clinic my Saviors.
