Medical Weight Loss Clinic patient creates healthy recipes to stay motivated

Adam Bolenbaugh joined Medical Weight Loss Clinic just after his wife Billie Jo started her own program. He signed up in early January and has lost more than 20 pounds toward his goal.

One Medical Weight Loss Clinic patient, Adam Bolenbaugh, has been inspired to make his own recipes – and share them.

“I am eating much healthier now,” Adam says. “I am feeling much better and having more energy as well.”

 Adam is aiming to reach a goal weight of 170 pounds and, along the way, he’s been inspired to create his own healthy recipes to get there.

“Me and my wife were doing the Medical Weight Loss Clinic recipes, eating a different recipe every night,” he recalls. “Then, we decided to go old-school, looking into our cookbooks to find recipes.”

They take the recipes they find as inspiration and alter them to fit their own programs. That’s what led Adam and Billie Jo to create Bolenbaugh Shrimp Soup.

Bolenbaugh Shrimp Soup is a hit with Medical Weight Loss Clinic patients, founded by a patient.

The dish combines green onions with Fulfill Chicken Bouillon, fresh garlic, garlic and onion powders and water, then brings it all to a simmer. Adam adds raw shrimp, tomato and spinach, stirring until the shrimp is pink and cooked. The recipe works for Medical Weight Loss Clinic’s Freedom and FastTrack programs.

Adam and Billie Jo Bolenbaugh began their Medical Weight Loss Clinic healthy journey together - and got creative with recipes.

He got a real boost when our staff shared this recipe with other clinic locations for patients to try. It’s also featured on our website. He says it all inspires him to keep going.

“I receive the best support from the team,” Adam says.

He admits that he sees food differently now that he’s on a healthier path.

“The first thing that I look at is sodium intake,” Adam adds. “Then, I just eat a portion of food and well balanced meals. I am also eating more often.”

While Adam is just getting started on his weight loss program, he’s motivated to succeed. Already, he’s seeing progress. And creating new healthy dishes is a creative way to do so.

“This has been a life-changer for me. I am losing weight, eating healthier and having more energy. I highly recommend Medical Weight Loss Clinic.”

When you enroll in a Medical Weight Loss Clinic program, the length of your program will be determined by you and the staff based on the amount of weight you want to lose and how quickly you want to lose it. Your actual weight loss will be determined by many factors, including, but not limited to: your medical circumstances, the plan you choose, adherence to the meal plan and use of nutritional supplements. Your goal and program duration information will be given to you in writing at the time of enrollment. As your program progresses, the rate you lose weight may change and you will have the opportunity to discuss this at every daily visit with your weight loss consultant, where changes to your meal plan and/or program can be made.
