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. [Read more]

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. [Read more]

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. [Read more]

Posted: May 21 in Patient Results by

After losing over 90 pounds I am breathing better, walking better, moving better and every day things get some much easier. I was back to clearing out my gardens, weeding, planting flowers, mulching, trimming and enjoying every minute of it. I can walk distances without tiring and can enjoy my family and children every so much more! [Read more]

Susan – 55lb. Weight Loss

Posted: Jan 21 in Patient Results by

My energy level was pitiful, my legs ached, and I woke up exhausted every morning due to lack of restorative sleep caused by snoring and symptoms of sleep apnea. My cholesterol had been steadily climbing for years, and with my family’s history of heart disease, I knew I had to do something. [Read more]

Pat – 75lb. Weight Loss

Posted: Dec 21 in Patient Results by

Have you ever been referred to as ‘morbidly’ obese? Or told by a doctor that if you don’t lose weight, you’ll be taking insulin shots in a year? Or bought every diet book that comes along, only to fail dismally after trying the program for 2 weeks or 2 days? [Read more]

Lee and Dave – 115lb. Weight Loss

Posted: Nov 22 in Patient Results by

I wish that I could say I started the Optifast program for health reasons, but I would be lying. Oh, I did have breast cancer and obesity does make one more susceptible to a reoccurrence of that disease, but that wasn’t my reason. My real reason was vanity. I was tired of looking matronly and tired of not being able to sit on the floor with my grandchildren comfortably. [Read more]
