Ponda Maxwell of Augusta
Ponda had lost 74.5 pounds when she submitted this testimonial. She was down 97 pounds when this testimonial was posted.
I have struggled with many diets in the past with no real results. I have found many of them to be difficult to use as a commitment change. I couldn't see myself counting points or eating one main food group for any long term period of time. I needed something healthy and easy. I found Dr. Green on the internet one afternoon and decided to give this diet thing one more try. I was so glad I did, his program is terrific, you get all your food groups and it has a real approach to changing your eating habits. This is something you can do. No more gimmicky diets. I have lost 74.5 pounds so far and am amazed at how easy it has been. I actually look forward to weigh in days! The staff is so supportive, friendly and knowledgeble. Dr. Green meets with you monthly, one on one, and makes you feel like your his only patient. I couldn't be happier with this great program! -Ponda Maxwell-
Sharon Lawson of Augusta
Sharon has lost 92 pounds as of Feburary 28, 2007.
Enrolling in the Medical Weight Loss Center Program was the best retirement gift I gave to myself. Dr. Green and his Staff have been so helpful and encouraging. I have lost 85 pounds and I feel great! Before I began this program, I really didn't like looking at myself in the mirror. Now, I see a happier, healthier person who is now taking care of the person God created. -Sharon Lawson-
Melody Hegler RN, MS of Evans
As a nurse I have always known the effects on your body of being overweight, but have always had a problem with my weight. I have tried almost every diet known. I have counted calories and points, eaten high protein, drank shakes, you name it I tried it. Last year in May I made the decision to really get serious. My weight had balooned to 253, I was on blood pressure nedicine and felt terrible all the time. I was 52 years old and knew I had to do something or I was headed for 300 pounds real fast. One evening while surfing the web for an answer to my weight issues, I found Dr. Green's website. It sounded possible and the fact that he is Board Certified in bariatrics convinced me he was the one I wanted to help me through the process. From the very first appointment I have nothing but praise for Dr. Green and his Staff. They are there for you, willing to help, advise and offer encouragement each step of the way. I was amazed at how easy the eating plan was and how the weight came off. It is real food and the menus are so varied you don't have a chance to get bored. You also get a guide to eating out and a guide for fast food. I was very close to my goal of losing 100 pounds when my life was turned topsy-turvy. I had several very stressful things happen all at once, and I stopped paying attention to my eating plan. Luckily, I came to my senses and am back to reaching my goal, with the help and support of Dr. Green and his wonderful staff. I consider Dr. Green and his staff not only my physician but also my friends and supporters. -Melody Hegler-
