A 38-year-old female presented with a diagnosis of diabetes, high blood pressure, and obesity with a BMI over 60. She reported a lifetime of weight struggles; she had a prior gastric surgery that failed and resulted in a rapid weight gain of 200 lbs.
Her eating habits were assessed as poor, and her life was filled with stress. She reported that stress often led to emotional eating. Her physician reported that her health was compromised due to her weight. She came to The Nutrition Professionals feeling defeated.
We worked to educate her on sound nutrition principles with a foundation of three balanced meals a day, with an adjustment in portion sizes. We focused on small achievable goals that were set at regular visits. In nine months, she has dropped 50 pounds and her blood sugars are in the 100s. She reports improved energy and motivation. This has been the most weight she has lost without weight-loss surgery.
