Tim's Weight Loss Success Story
(Click here to watch Tim's video!)
"I have always been a person with weight issues and had never been able to keep it off. Everything was a chore: putting on socks, getting out of bed, riding an elevator, climbing stairs, sitting at the movies or on a plane, even just sleeping through the night.
At my annual physical, my doctor said, 'You really need to make a decision. If you don't do anything, you'll end up not being here too much longer.' She told me about the HMR Program in the building and said that I shouldn't leave before going upstairs to take a look at it. The hardest part so far was making the decision to walk up those stairs that day."
At 14 months in the program Tim had lost 186 pounds, and just 3 months later he lost another 10 pounds and is still committed to lose more!
"I never thought I would lose 186 pounds in 1 year. I never, ever thought in my wildest dreams that this was possible. The difference (with HMR) is that you build a different relationship with food. They make it really simple, and I never -- not even one day -- felt hungry. As long as you follow the program, it's pretty easy." The program provides structure, accountability and support from the HMR team and from others in class. "I think about all the years that I've been overweight and all the missed opportunities when I chose not to do something because of how big I was. Now all I do is look forward and ask what can't I do?
It has been totally life changing. I look at life differently now. I'm not living to wait until I pass away. I'm living to sky dive and climb rock walls. I'm exercising -- I work out with a trainer on a weekly basis. I'm healthy, fit, and doing things I never could before.
HMR will always be part of my life. I plan for it every week. It's my time not to be interrupted by anything. It's important to me and it's my commitment to myself. Many people think they have to go through a torturous process to lose weight, and they don't! If you really want to lose weight, HMR is the simplest, easiest way to do it. It changes your way of life. Don't hesitate!"
