After I had quit drinking alcohol two years ago, I thought I had eliminated thousands of calories each week. By adding exercise and a diet, I expected I would return to the health and vitality I once knew. But my energy levels were at an all time low and I felt weak throughout much of the day. I had actually gained weight within my first six months of sobriety, and I was very frustrated.
Fortunately, I read an article in the newspaper about the Medical Weight Management Center. While surveying my eating habits, it became clear that I am insulin resistant and that I had replaced beer with other high-sugar, high-carbohydrate foods and beverages which I had come to crave.
After losing 30 pounds in less than two months, the staff at MWMC taught me how to improve my diet and permanently change my approach to food. I now have the knowledge to have satisfying, well-balanced meals while enjoying my favorite foods. It's been two years since I started the program and I haven't gained back a single pound. I look and feel like I did when I was in college and Medical Weight Management has given me back my life again.
