Every day I have the great fortune of seeing so many wonderful people and also having the opportunity to help them achieve their weight loss goals. Yesterday, I saw 2 patients who have achieved remarkable results, and their age difference spanned over 5 decades. One was a younge gentleman in high school who has lost over 100 pounds in our program. His entire demeanor has changed. When he first came to us, you could almost feel the depressive cloud above his head. Now, he exudes a positive attitude, an incredibly higher self-confidence and an overall energy that is now extremely high. The other patient I am referring to is in her mid 70s, and she has lost almost 50 pounds with us. What is remarkable is just how much better she is able to move around. Upon presentation, the arthritis issues and the weight basically made it almost impossible to get up on the exam table without help. Now, she very spryly hops onto the table. Similar to the young gentleman, her attitude is positive and her energy is upbeat.
I guess the point here is that it is never "too early" or "too late" to embark on weight loss efforts. From a health and emotional standpoint, dramatic improvements will accompany that weight loss no matter what the age!
