Carol Bradley first found Medical Weight Loss Clinic through our commercials. She soon noticed the White Lake location in her neighborhood and decided to give it a try. That was 2 years and more than 35 pounds ago.
“I just got fed up,” she says. “I needed support. I am 5’ tall and weighed 166 pounds. If it wasn’t for the support I am not sure I could have done it.”
Through her visits to the White Lake clinic she’s struck up a friendship with Emily Martello, the senior consultant there.
“Carol has an excellent sense of humor. We have a good time,” says Emily. “She lost almost the same amount of weight I did at one point in my life. She still comes in every week on her maintenance and she made me promise not to retire yet!”
With Emily and the Medical Weight Loss Clinic team in her corner, Carol’s progress was swift and steady, too. Emily described her chart as a ski slope downward.
“She was very committed and followed the program,” Emily adds. “It’s a wonderful menu. Balanced and healthy. And we’re very supportive of our patients.”
And for Carol, it’s become a healthy lifestyle. She is still working to lose another 5 pounds and has signed on for another year of maintenance to help her do that and stay on track to maintain a healthy weight.
Carol admits she’s harder on herself than the staff has ever been during her time on the program. She lost most of the weight over 9 months and went from visiting the clinic three times a week to stopping in just once week to stay on track and in touch. It’s a highlight of her week still.
“When I feel like I need that boost, that’s when I go,” she says. “They’re all upbeat.”
The emotional support has made all the difference. When Carol feels stress or pressure from friends or family, she visits Medical Weight Loss Clinic and can count on the staff to give her helpful tips and the reassurance to stay on a healthy path.
“I think everyone should give it a try,” Carol says. “It’s been like a miracle for me.”
