Amy E: 151 lb Weight Loss

Posted: Feb 03 in Patient Results by

It’s never clear when you go from having ‘baby fat’ to being ‘big for your age,’ and then ‘big boned’ to ‘fluffy’ and ‘pleasingly plump’. I always knew I was bigger than my peers growing up and when they stopped growing, I continued. I suppose at some point I would even acknowledge to myself that I was fat. I had several ‘wake up calls’ when I knew I needed to do something, but somehow, I managed to hit the snooze button and let the thought slip away.

Tony K: 74 lbs Weight Loss

Posted: Jan 05 in Patient Results by

Last spring, as I boarded a plane returning to Phoenix from Dallas, I could see it in the eyes of others already on board: “I hope that big guy doesn’t sit next to me.” I knew I had problems: Sleep apnea, high blood pressure, a bad attitude, and no energy. Through a referral from a friend, I found Scottsdale Weight Loss Center.

Why is SWLC’s program different from what you have tried previously? The program is easy – the food is there for you. The education is REAL, not a commission based flunky parroting canned or boilerplate dogma. Ideal Weight Loss Program – a high protein low calorie program based on ketosis. Low-fat diet. What did you like most about the SWLC program?

Frank: 33 lb Weight Loss

Posted: Oct 31 in Patient Results by

We would like to congratulate Frank on his incredible success here at Scottsdale Weight Loss Center! Here is what Frank had to say about his weight loss: Thank you Scottsdale Weight Loss Center for providing me with a program that really works! Losing 33 pounds in 11 weeks has given me a new perspective on eating (well), and it has changed my life and lifestyle of eating for good. Increased stress and poor eating habits had pushed my weight to dangerous new levels that put me at a health risk. I needed to do something about it and after an emergency room scare, I asked my personal doctor what to do about losing weight. He referred me to Scottsdale Weight Loss Center and Drs. Primack and Ziltzer saying “They know what they are doing”.

OMG! Oh My Gut! Finally I realized it was my turn, I needed to lose weight and do it to last. I came back from my visit to VA after enjoying Georgia peaches, peach pie, sweet tomatoes on bologna sandwiches and lots of potato chips. I was in heaven! I had to stop the ridiculousness, feel good, out of control, mindless eating. I had blamed it on everything I could and now I needed to accept responsibility and give myself permission to take the time, effort, and energy to lose weight and appreciate the journey.

TC: 67 lb Weight Loss

“I did a lot of research into which weight loss option was right for me and I knew from the moment I called for my consultation I had made the right decision. The idea of starting a weight loss program in itself can be a very intimidating and often demeaning experience. For myself I had to get over my own sense of failure. This entire staff is amazing! Everyone is so supportive and Dr. Primack speaks to you like an intelligent human being. In fact he has actually been very gracious in putting up with my constant “research related” questions and constant probing of “Why “and “what” (Thank you).

Teens and Emotional Eating

Posted: Jun 15 in Our Blog by

For many people who are overweight, the problem of overeating and lack of exercise can be traced back to their childhood or teen years. Often when starting out on a medical weight loss plan it becomes important to address stressors and psychological issues that may cause overeating and make it difficult to lose weight.

A little over six months ago I had just turned 50, was overweight, taking two medications that (barely) controlled my blood pressure, had rising cholesterol, and my regular doctor had just put me on a statin drug because of my cardiac risk factors. Happy Birthday!

I often think about my success at SWLC and reflect back on how it was that I got here. After all, my quest to lose weight started over a decade ago and unfortunately, I must admit, it did not start with SWLC. Rather it began in the deepest recesses and darkest depths of the dieting world: The Fad Diet. The allure of which is self evident but with every inevitable failure looms the self-perpetuating downward spiral of confidence, motivation and hope.

And spiral I did!
