Weight Loss 65 lbs start weight 283, current weight 218
I lost 65 pounds over a period of about a year and have maintained that weight loss for an additional 6 months. I was feeling depressed about my excessive weight and had adopted some really bad eating habits. I was eating out at restaurants on a regular basis and consistently eating all of the wrong foods. Exercise?..'Yeah right' was my old attitude. It took me a while to change my habits and get on a steady routine, but once I was able to do that, the weight started dropping off consistently. It has been a very successful change of lifestyles and eating habits for our family. My wife and I have been on the weight loss program together and are able to encourage each other. Consequently, our 10 year old son Daniel has also become more aware of his own eating habits and exercise routines. He is now living a healthier life too! I am so thankful that we made the decision to have Dr. Menon help us with our weight loss. It has been a fantastic experience and I feel so much better now. I have a lot more energy at home and at work. Dr. Menon and her staff are outstanding to work with

Weight Loss 26 lbs start weight 216, current weight 190
In 2006 I had a brain trauma injury that resulted in an unexpected weight gain of 45 lbs. I came to Dr. Menon for help because I had exhausted my personal efforts in trying to figure out a way of eating that would make me lose weight but would also give my body what it needs. Dr. Menon's own personal struggles with weight and her knowledge about how the body works and what the body needs to lose weight in a safe healthy way convinced me to use her program. In the first few weeks I was able to start the program with what I called a "no brain-er" approach being completely guided by Dr. Menon as she reset my body's cravings. This approach to weight loss is exactly what I needed due to repeated failures on my part to pick foods that are balanced and still produce weight loss. Weekly weigh-ins and checkups kept me on track and encouraged, addressing my questions plus teaching me how to incorporate healthy food into my diet as well as the importance of regular exercise. For the first time in my life I feel control over food instead of food controlling me! Dr. Menon as well as the staff at Physicians Skin and Weight Center are supportive and your success is their care and concern. Thank you Dr. Menon and the staff at Physicians Skin and Weight Center.

Weight Loss 40 lbs start weight 194 , current weight 154
I lost 40 pounds over a period of 6 months and have maintained my weight loss for an additional 6 months. I have Type II Diabetes and am insulin-dependent. After having a hysterectomy, I gained 40 pounds and was not able to lose the weight by myself no matter what diet I tried. It is very important to me to have someone who is very knowledgeable about successful weight loss programs and not just another trendy diet. Dr Menon has been extremely helpful with her complete understanding of the weight loss process. She has been great to work with on a regular basis. She has pointed me in the right direction with good eating habits, good nutrition, proper exercise, and most of all encouragement and support. I really enjoy having the liquid diet protein supplements for ongoing maintenance and when I need rapid weight loss. They are convenient and taste good. I feel so much better now that I have lost the excess weight. I am more active, have more strength, more confidence, and less body aches and pains. Losing the weight has changed my life forever. I am forever grateful to Dr Menon and the Skin and Weight Center for helping me set and reach realistic goals. Dr Menon truly cares about the success of each and every one of her patients. Thank You!
