Mike's Successful Weight Loss Story

"Three years ago I was a single father taking care of my two children on my own. I was also at my all time high weight of 305 lbs. I had sleep apnea and I was using a CPAP machine at night. One morning my children had trouble waking me up, this was my literal wake up call. Given that their mother was 1500 miles away, I knew I had to take action. I contacted Alaska Premiere Health and set up an appointment. After the initial screening they determined I suffered from metabolic syndrome. I had many choices but the OPTIFAST program appealed to me. Through the stimuli narrowing process and adding daily exercise I was able to lose 130 lbs* in the course of ten months.

To say that OPTIFAST helped save my life is an understatement. I have taken up Tang so do (Korean Karate) and I have achieved my green belt (half way to black) and I have run a number of 5k races and will be doing my first marathon this summer. I have maintained my weight within 7 lbs for almost two years now (those 7 lbs are all muscle by the way!) and I have my life back.

Thank you OPTIFAST for giving me my life back.

*The typical OPTIFAST patient loses 52 pounds in 22 weeks. For many dieters, weight loss is only temporary.
