Nancy – 70 lbs. Weight Loss

Posted: Nov 16 in Patient Results by

I retired in 2003 and after a couple of years started regaining weight. Finally, after five years, I weighed more than I had ever weighed in my life. Weight has always been a problem for me. Other than being grossly overweight, I enjoyed my life very much although my weight was beginning to slow me down from doing the things I like to do. I love running with my dog in agility, but running time is a factor, and I was finding it harder and harder to be successful at this activity which I love.

Alexis – 58 lbs. Weight Loss

Posted: Aug 05 in Patient Results by

Each of us has a perception of what beautiful is, as they say “beauty is in the eye of the beholder”. It has been eleven months of learning to see myself as beautiful and breaking down my own stereotypes and judging myself on what I can do and what I want to do! So many times in my life I allowed myself to only hear and see the negative. I never stopped to believe I was worth more than that!

Charlie – 80 lb. weight loss

Posted: Jun 21 in Patient Results by

Thanks to Dr. Scinta and her wonderful staff my weight is now approaching 200 pounds, my body fat percentage is getting close to being in the healthy range, my blood pressure is normal, as are all my other levels. I am now able to play with my kids without being out of breath and sweating. My kids keep asking when my diet is going to be over. I tell them my diet ended in December and this is my new lifestyle. My lifestyle has had a positive impact on my family as well. My boys are more aware of the food they eat and are making healthier choices to be like their Dad and my wife has started to workout as well.

Hello, my name is Linda. I’m 60 healthy years of age now thanks to Dr. Wendy Scinta and her wonderful staff. I hit the “turning point in my life” in the Spring of 2007. I’ve been overweight since my 40′s and the weight kept creeping up, until I hit well over 250 lbs.

John – 57 lb. Weight Loss

Posted: Dec 21 in Patient Results by

I come from a family in which there is no problem with obesity. To my knowledge, not a single family member or relative has been overweight. My problems with weight began in the late 1970’s, when I figured I had about 20 pounds to lose. Although I never tried to gain knowledge about making smart choices concerning calories, cholesterol, carbohydrates, sugar, or fat, I was able to take off necessary pounds by simply cutting back on portions. It was easy for me to lose that weight, but it returned just as easily and charted new territory in my approach to obesity

Joseph – 30 lb. Weight Loss

Posted: Nov 21 in Patient Results by

Long before I joined Medical Weight Loss of NY’s program, I had on many occasions lost a lot of weight as much as 30 pounds, only to gain it back quickly. I was not able to keep it off until I started Dr. Scinta’s Medical Weight Loss Program in May of this year. I have had great results with this program. Dr. Scinta and her staff have kept me on track and I would not have lost and kept it off without the program and their encouragement.

Joan – 95 lb. Weight Loss

Posted: Oct 21 in Patient Results by

I have tried so many weight loss programs, I couldn’t even count them – Weight Watchers, LA Weight Loss, Dieticians, Clubs, gyms, Curves, you name it. I was at the point where I weighed more than I had ever in my life. I was warned by two doctors to lose weight for my health. I was considering gastric bypass surgery as my last hope but really did not want to go that route. I knew someone that had died from complications.

Carolyn – 70 lb. Weight Loss

Posted: Jul 21 in Patient Results by

Wanting the fastest results, I opted for the FULL OPTIFAST program. I’d be lying if I didn’t say that the first few weeks were an adjustment, especially as I began to realize the addiction I had to sugar and carbs and the ways I was using food to satisfy things other than hunger. Seventy pounds and six sizes later, I’m back. The new-and-improved old me is back.

Scott – 88 lb. Weight Loss

Posted: Jun 21 in Patient Results by

Now, since November, I am down 72 lbs. from when I first started working with Dr. Scinta and about 88 lbs. from Labor Day of last year. Many people don’t realize how much I’ve lost. They think I’ve lost 40 lbs or so. Maybe I did “carry it” well. The really important part is that my health is better for the long-term. My pulse is around 48, down from 62, my cholesterol is 135, down from 211 and my triglycerides are 45 down from 242.
