“I was always the fat kid. The struggle with my weight has had a constant impact on my life. I have tried every diet or weight loss fad there has been. Low carbs, calorie count, weight watchers, gym memberships, I have done them all. I would always have a few weeks of positive movement but then I would stall out and eventually give up. Every time I felt like a failure. Day to day there was always something in my life impacted by my weight from not being able to keep up with the family on walks, frequent knee issues, not being able to go on all the rides on vacation and even being diagnosed with sleep apnea.
When I was first referred to Dr. Sanchez-Goettler I was not expecting much as nothing had worked for me before. From the start working with Dr. Sanchez-Goettler was different. She has constantly worked with me to evolve a plan I can follow and have success with. from adjusting macros and calories to helping me connect with a behaviorist. For the first time in my life, I have had real positive movement and been able to maintain it. I no longer need a seat belt extender when I fly, I can buy clothes in normal department stores, and I even no longer need to use a CPAP machine! Even when I hit some plateaus, I have the support and knowledge to keep pushing forward. Everyone at Radiance has been so supportive and really helped me on my journey. I can not thank them enough for everything. “
