My name is Karsten. I’m 55 years old and have been struggling with weight loss for years. My wife was concerned about my weight and possible health issues, so I decided to finally do something about it. I’ve tried all kinds of weight loss programs and vitamins with no success. I was eating a lot of fruits, vegetables and salads, but just couldn’t lose any weight no matter what I did. It was so frustrating, and I almost gave up. Then, my dear friend told me about Jade, and had recommended that I see her. I set up my appointment at the clinic and it was such a ease talking to her. They ran some tests and found out what was really going on with my body. The tests revealed that my thyroid levels were off and everything I was eating, my body was just storing it instead of allowing it to burn off. After we got the results of the tests, she went to work immediately to put together a daily regimen for a diet plan to fit my condition. She put me on medications to help with my appetite and thyroid levels. All I had to do was lower my calorie intake to no more than 2,000 calories every day. Eating was prohibited between the hours of 7pm and 11am. I also had to get my cardio exercise in daily and chose a stationary bicycle to get this done. I rode the bike morning and night for a year. I started out at 2 miles per day and now I’m riding 4-5 miles a day. As difficult as it was at first not being able to have sweet tea, coffee, soda and alcohol, I managed to surpass all of the cravings. I ultimately lost a total of 111lbs in just 12 months. I couldn’t believe it. Now I have the energy of a 30-year-old. My wife’s mind is now at ease knowing that I’m healthier.
