Before I started OPTIFAST I was definitely overweight, 56 pounds overweight. And I perspired profusely. I was tired. I didn't want to go anywhere because of the way I looked and felt. And I knew something had to be done. There were three family members recently diagnosed with diabetes and I didn't want to be another statistic. I needed to be around to raise my young children. I saw a friend of mine from church that had been through the OPTIFAST program and she looked great. She told me about the program and I decided that if she can do it, I can do this. 
The OPTIFAST program has had an amazing impact on all aspects of my life. Losing weight has helped me to have more energy and be able to do so much more with that energy. I am able to run around and play with my cousin (without getting out of breath), I can fully participate without worrying if my weight will be an issue. My confidence has increased and I have proven to myself that I have the willpower and drive to make a big goal happen. 
"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.

"Carol's OPTIFAST program can work for you. I've lost 70 pounds and continue to maintain my weight by attending a group once a week, exercising 5-6 times a week and taking the time to do meal planning. Carol's encouragement and support are key in being successful."

"At 52, I thought I would never be able to lose weight. At this age no matter what I tried I was unable to lose, until I found OPTIFAST. I lost 50 lbs on the OPTIFAST program! It was painless and I was never hungry. Being on the fast is like taking a vacation from food obsessions. It made it easier to focus my attention on learning what food triggers and behaviors contributed to my being overweight. The program takes the stress off having to make proper food choices at the same time you are learning new coping strategies. Carol Henderson, and the AIM program, is continuing to support me in maintaining the weight loss through classes and personal guidance. And although maintaining is not an easy road-I am so grateful that I am 50 lbs lighter and that I have the support I need to keep it off."
