Angela’s Weight Loss Journey: 'The day I chose me'

Angela Foster feels like a completely new person. The single mother of two joined Medical Weight Loss Clinic last summer with a goal to reach 150 pounds. And when she achieved that goal – dropping more than 46 pounds – she seemed surprised at just how much her life had changed for the better.

Angela Foster dropped more than 46 pounds with Medical Weight Loss Clinic.

“Physically and emotionally, I feel renewed and restored,” she says. “I am not as fatigued. Workouts are more intense. Everything I eat is done mindfully. I now look forward to shopping for clothes. I am so glad I chose myself.”

That’s something we hear often from our successful patients. Not only does their health improve, but they learn how to prioritize their own needs.

“In June 2022, I got on the scale and saw 195.8 pounds,” she says. “That was the day I chose me. I have never weighed 200 pounds in my life. Not even pregnant. And this is how my Medical Weight Loss Clinic journey began.”

The program worked for Angela because she came in with a clear goal and an open mind, she says. “You have to be willing to do the work,” she admits. “It will force you to challenge yourself, learn new things about yourself and motivate you to be a better person.”

Three things that worked best for Angela on her Freedom program include:

1.     Have a plan. Shop strategically and meal prep, she says.

2.     Journal daily. It’s a journey and success comes with reflection.

3.     “If you fall off the horse, get back on,” she says. Some days will be harder than others.  

She also attributes some of her success to the support she found at Medical Weight Loss Clinic’s Warren location.

Angela Foster stuck with the program and reached her goal.

“I would like to acknowledge the health coaches, Tina and Tyler,” she adds. “I have always felt like they were my biggest cheerleaders. I am so grateful for all of their encouragement along the way. That was so important to me.”

Tyler Stachnik, Medical Weight Loss Clinic manager in Warren, says: “I am so proud of Angela and everything she has accomplished! She has shown what prioritizing your health and following the program can do for you. She has been outstanding in following the program and making sure she is doing everything she can do because this meant so much to her. Angela's results speak for themselves, she has shown what putting yourself first can do.”
