weight loss and looking younger

This morning I will speak to physicians who are attending the American Academy of Anti-aging Medicine meetings in Orlando. We noticed that this is the only "weight" discussion occurring the entire 4 days of seminars. Most of the talks are about aesthetic procedures..liopdissolve, injection therapy, natural hormones, etc. Once again, from an aesthetic standpoint, looking younger (significantly) almost always accompanies weight loss. I am thinking about so many of our patients who appear to drop years (even decades) when they finish their formal visits with us.

It is important to remember that you do not have to spend thousands and thousands of dollars trying to look younger. If you are overweight, making signifcant progress in reaching your goals will make you look so much younger. How many of you can really believe that I am 73 years old? (Laughing....okay....I really am turning 53 and trying desparately to look no older than 52)
