After I was told that I was pre-diabetic and had to use a breathing machine to sleep every night I knew something was wrong. I couldn’t even stand to vacuum my floors anymore. My back felt like it was going to break. My activities with my teenage son consisted of movies, cards or games. I couldn’t do much else without pain. I needed a change and found Transition. They have helped me in so many more ways than just weight loss. They changed my life. My son and I now go hiking and bike riding together. We are currently going on our first cruise where I came actually enjoy our time together doing everything we can. He told me the other day when he saw my beginning and after photos how proud he was of me. (It felt amazing) It’s never too late to say it’s time for a change.

I started this weight loss journey six months ago after realizing everything I do on a daily basis was getting harder and harder to do, from putting on my socks to walking my dog. Now after losing over 100 pounds, everything I do is easier. I was on three blood pressure medications and one heartburn medication, which I no longer need. I was also able to stop my sleep apnea therapy. I couldn’t walk 10 feet without taking a rest. ... Now I exercise and walk three to five miles each day with no problems. My biggest supporter is my wife who hikes and walks with me and also is losing weight too. The staff at Transition Medical Weight Loss is incredible and always available for you when you need them.

Give Transitions a try! I did an 8 week course and have now lost over 30 lbs. I am able to not only keep the weight off, but am slowly losing more weight due to the guidance on diet and exercise I received at Transitions. I started at Transitions because I was stuck at my weight and slowly gaining. I knew I had to do something. I never dreamed I’d lose over 30 lbs and be able to continue working on getting my weight to where it was many years ago.

I am ecstatic about how well the Transition program worked for me! I have tried many diets over the years, none of which worked or I could stick to. The accountability and ease of the Transition program made this plan very "easy" for me to follow. Being given an eating plan and shown the food options helped me understand what kinds of nutrition content to look for in foods and how to eat them throughout the day. The Transition program set a great framework for how to be successful going forward. The staff was wonderful - very supportive, informative, and always willing to answer any questions I had.

Take the jump! We all know it's so hard to stay the course when you aren't seeing results. This program helped me lose enough weight that I'm confident I won't "go back." In addition to weight loss, I also greatly improved my triglycerides (from 540 to 129), sleep, and mood. And I no longer need to take medication for heartburn. The price almost prevented me from starting. It is definitely an investment, but if you calculate what you pay for all 3 meals, snacks, going out to eat, ... ordering out for lunch, getting coffee in the morning… the program is probably cheaper; it's just paid at once. Plus, they give you tips and tricks to be successful after the program. The support and accountability of going in and weighing in every week was absolutely HUGE for my success. 150% worth the money! I highly recommend it.

I made this decision to join Transition Medical Weight Loss and am very happy so far. I needed the help! The team worked with me. There were days of being depressed because I wasn’t myself; not active and my self-esteem was low. I feel great now! I love the program. I am finally on the right track. Thank you all very much! I could not have done it without your help.

Transition was the right program for me, a busy teacher with a sweet tooth. They supported my journey getting back to a healthier me. I learned how to read nutrition labels, how to eat out healthfully, and how to take care of myself while dealing with life stresses. The team is very supportive and weekly weigh-ins helped me with accountability. I also learned how to shop for good food and have kept the weight off for two months so far. Transition is a great fit for those ... who want a weight loss and health program that they can continue successfully on their own.

I am sitting here today reflecting on my 12 week journey. My story is like so many others. A middle aged man, overweight, tired, defeated. I tried other programs and had minimal success. I read a few articles in the local newspapers and magazines about this weight loss program. I reached out to Joe and his team for help.
This is one of the best decisions I have ever made. I started my program in March of 2022. My starting weight was 242.3 pounds. This number along with my initial ... blood work put me in the obese range; a prediabetic 53 year old. The results were tough for me to see, hear, and accept. I decided it was time. I signed up for the 3 month plan to get myself in a better place. There is no price tag you can put on this program. Yes, the amount is a lot, but I needed to put into perspective that this decision was not only for me, but for my family. Today, June 15, 2022 is my last day of that 3 month trek. I have lost 45 pounds, am able to sleep without my CPAP machine, have more energy, and I am in a good state of mind. I have learned through the program and the weekly consult sessions to eat well and eat smart. I no longer “live to eat,” but rather “eat to live.” This was no easy task for this Italian!
I didn’t realize the fog I was in for the last few years. This program and the team at Transition Medical Weight Loss coached me back to good health. We sat each week discussing food options, plans, exercise routines, and the overall importance of being a healthy individual. I have decided to try and continue this new lifestyle of eating well and being mindful of my now good habits on my own. I know that at any time I could pick up that phone or email the team and they would be there to root me on and encourage me if I resort back to old habits.
I will be forever grateful to everyone at Transition Medical Weight Loss in Salem, New Hampshire. Are you ready to change your life for the good?

I have been very uncomfortable with my weight for some time. All my clothes were tight and I was really depressed. It is amazing how your weight can keep you down and unhealthy. In December of 2021, I was getting all kinds of tests done (x-rays, pill-cams, ultrasounds, and tons of blood work) only to find nothing. I started the transition weight loss program in January and the pound started dropping and my health, aches, and pains were gone. It is truly amazing how much better I feel. Thank you!!

Great team and great service!

This is truly a comprehensive program that has helped me lose weight and improve my health. The entire team is knowledgeable and friendly and never judgmental. The weekly check-ins help me to stay on track and learn throughout the process. Not only have I lost 40 lbs, but I’ve gained more energy and can spend more time chasing around my grandkids. My bloodwork continues to show improvements as well and I’ve been able to get off my blood pressure med. I’m so happy that I made this investment in my health.

I had such a wonderful experience at transition medical weight loss! I was trying to lose weight on my own with no success for longer than I can remember, and I was able to meet my goal weight in just 12 weeks at transition weight loss. The program was so effective and Joe and the entire team were so kind, knowledgeable, and supportive. I learned so much from Joe, and I know I will be able to use all that I learned to continue with these new healthy lifestyle habits. I am so grateful for my experience here!

I was at my heaviest point during the pandemic and decided to make a change. Transition Medical Weight Loss made that process easy and walked me through everything and the results have been nothing short of incredible. The weight loss was consistent and I’m exactly where I want to be. They also taught me how to maintain my weight and create healthy habits to keep the weight off. Truly incredible service and 100% worth it.

Transition Weight Loss Medical has been the answer to my weight loss dreams! I am delighted with the results that I have achieved. I have had success with other weight loss programs, but never this much loss and for the amount of time I have kept it off. I’ve seen my body fat drop as well as dropped 5 pant sizes for a total of 46 pounds. My energy levels have increased dramatically. I have been able to decrease the amount of arthritis medication that I was taking. ... The compliments that I have been receiving have helped me maintain this weight loss journey. I have learned how to manage eating out at restaurants and having an occasional social drink with friends. With the help of Joe and Cheryl, and their many answers to my questions, and their recommendations have helped me to succeed. One of the keys to my success has been the protein bars that the program has offered as well as their drinks. Thank you to the WHOLE Transition Team. I love how you get excited for me when I visit! I am one happy customer. I will continue onwards with my maintenance journey!

I was feeling rundown most of the time. My eating habits were not healthy, I didn’t eat breakfast and ate a large dinner before bed most nights. I was having trouble with my blood pressure and trouble sleeping. My blood pressure was running high, 150/94 on most days which was leaving me no choice but to go on medication to manage it. I had heard about Transition Medical Weight Loss from the morning show on WZID, which led to my ... first visit in late February 2020. I was surprised at my evaluation numbers; my weight was higher than it has ever been 193lbs, with my body fat over 28% but I still thought I could manage losing weight on my own. Needless to say, a few months later I decided that I needed help and went back to Transition Medical Weight Loss. In just a few weeks, I had noticed a big change in my energy level, and I was feeling better than I had in years. Most importantly, my blood pressure had gone down considerably. I was able to get out and exercise more, which made losing weight that much easier. In 6 weeks, I had lost over 23 lbs. and I felt great. I did not realize that eating the right foods at the right times would change my health this much. I am so grateful to the team at Transition Medical Weight Loss. They have helped me get my health and life back.

I joined Transition Medical Weight Loss after hemming and hawing for over a year and finally decided to do something for myself. I began the program in August, 2021. I was diagnosed with Type II Diabetes 16 years ago at the age of 44 and watched my mother slower deteriorate with this disease needing dialysis twice weekly toward the end of her life. I always worried that if I couldn’t get my Diabetes under control that my life would turn out ... the same way. With that being said my A1C went from 8.6 in August, 2021 to 5.4 just last week, December 3, 2021. I have lost more weight than I ever have been able to lose on my own and I am now walking on the treadmill at a incline of 12 at 4.0 speed. Not bad for a 60-year-old grandmother!! The program could not be easier so if you have thought about doing this program, don’t hesitate…do it now for yourself and enjoy the results like I have. I am scheduled to see my endocrinologist next week and can’t wait for him to see how much I have improved since I last saw him in April, 2021. I love the team at Transition. When you have Joe, Michelle, Caroline and Amy in your court, you just can’t fail!!!

This has been the most incredible thing I have ever done. Losing this weight made me realize that even though life is always going to have struggles, you get to pick some of your struggles. Being overweight is not an easy way of living, and it debilitates all aspects of life. Physically, mentally and emotionally. And how society treats you overall! But I found that losing the weight came with similar struggles, but in those struggles I found that mentally ... I was ready to do this and never stop even when it got hard. And some days were definitely harder than others, but the entire Transition team never stopped encouraging me and believing in me. And that’s how I got through some of the toughest moments! I would do it all over again with them if I had to!

“I have long commutes to work in the car and I would continuously hear the ads on WZID 95.7FM for Transition Medical Weight Loss Center. My curiosity got the better of me, so I bit the bullet and scheduled a consultation. I saw the scale hit over 200 pounds with my first weigh-in, and I began to seriously have doubts. Then I had my initial meeting with Cheryl. She made me feel welcome and comfortable. I still had my doubts as I had tried other weight loss programs before with minimal success, ... but this time felt different. Somewhere behind all the doubt and skepticism was a burning desire to accept the challenge that awaited me.
The support, appreciation and success that the program offered outweighed all further doubts I had after that initial meeting. I went into the program with no ultimate goal in mind. I just wanted to prove to myself that I could do it. I started with a 12-week program, convinced that I would see no real change. I lost 38 pounds. As summer approached, I continued with another 8 week program so that I could stay on track with all the BBQs, parties and restaurant dining. In 20 weeks I have lost a total of 50 pounds. When the facemask came off, coworkers noticed my face thinning. Then I couldn’t fit into my “”regular”” summer clothing. Shopping for a bathing suit in a smaller size was a victory for me! I had more energy, I was sleeping better and I was able to climb a flight of stairs without getting winded. My blood sugar level is back in normal range and I couldn’t be happier.
I now enter the maintenance stage excited and confident. I no longer see this as a challenge but a lifestyle change that is easy to grasp. I know the support of the Transition team will exist throughout my journey and I now know that I can still cheat a bit to be happy, and I don’t stress over it. Never in my wildest dreams did I ever imagine I would have this kind of success. It’s taken me a long time to focus on myself. Thanks to Joe, Cheryl, Michelle and Caroline for your encouragement. It is a truly judgement-free zone to walk into every week. Getting a little help along the way was all I needed to learn how to improve my life and for that I am truly grateful. It’s been a long time since I have been this proud of myself. I know I can do this and I’m not looking back. I even went on a cruise and was able to maintain my weight! Acknowledge your small victories folks. This will eventually add up to something great. It did for me!”

I’m currently down 70 lbs thanks to the team at Transition. I feel so much healthier and can be more active with my family. The medical team is so knowledgeable and truly care about you throughout every step of the journey. I highly recommend Transition to anyone looking to lose weight.

“I’ve tried several different diet programs and also a low carb, low calorie from my doctor. Nothing seemed to work. My husband has been seeing Dr. Korbey for more than 20 years and he suggested this program to help him lose weight and lower his numbers. I decided to give it a try and was pleasantly surprised to lose weight consistently each week.
The program was very easy to follow ... and it helps to be able to see the results at each weeks visit. All aspects of my bloodwork went down to “normal” or below….A1C dropped to 5.5! Many thanks to Cheryl, Joe and everyone at Transition Medical Weight Loss! I’m well on my way to a better and healthier life!”

I lost 56 lbs in 12 weeks and improved my health dramatically. The programs works if you follow it and stick to it. The food is delicious and there is an ever-growing variety of options. The medical aspect is crucial because they diagnosed my vitamin D deficiency, prediabetes, and cholesterol issues. I am happy to say that all of these things improved with the help of Transition. Highly recommended!

I completed the 12 week program, and am in the first week of my transition plan. At the beginning, 12 weeks felt like a long road ahead…but now it seems like it went so quickly. I am thrilled with the result I got…more than 40 pounds lost, feeling so much better and wearing pants with a waist size 4 inches less than when I started. I no longer feel the need to “disguise” my obesity by wearing extra large shirts.
The team at Transition Weight Loss are nutritional & medical professionals, ... who monitor clients’ progress on a scientific basis, as well as providing enthusiastic, positive moral support. My weekly visits to the office were something I looked forward to, and part of the motivation to stick to the plan. The food plan has many tasty choices, and once I figured out my favorites, it was fun shopping for the week. I could go on, but I am so grateful to the team at Transition and would highly recommend them.

This has been a life-changing program for me. The team is extremely knowledgeable and caring and truly wants you to succeed. The weekly visits keep me accountable and the body composition analysis shows your progress which is motivating. Joe, Cheryl, and the entire team are there to guide, support, and encourage you every step of the way. In addition to losing a significant amount of weight, I’ve also improved my blood sugar, cholesterol, and blood pressure.
The program was very easy to follow ... The food is delicious and the variety is always expanding. I am so glad that I joined Transition and look forward to keeping my weight off with the help of their maintenance program soon.

Incredible program! The food selection is excellent. There are over 50 different dinner options, including wild fish, frozen and fresh entrees, salads, etc. I found the food to be very tasty and satisfies my cravings. I have lost a lot of weight thanks to Transition and better yet, I am keeping it off in the maintenance program. The whole team is friendly and knowledgeable. So happy I joined!

Since March of 2020, we all have dealt with the effects of Covid-19. The difference for me is that my Covid was more like Covid-35! I can’t believe the bad habits I got into over the course of 10 months. I joined Transitions with the intent of getting my portions under control. I liked the idea of having everything spelled out for my daily food intake. After week 1 I realized how much more Transitions had to offer. First, there is the encouragement of the whole team. Michelle weighs you in
The program was very easy to follow ... and celebrates your weight loss achievement. Then Caroline helps to create your next week’s menu. She puts thought into what you like and don’t like for options, and in the end, creates a delicious menu that is customized for me. Finally, I met with Joe every week. He walks through the details of where you did well. He explains what’s going on with your body transformation, and he suggests ideas that will help you navigate the land mines for next week. Over the eight weeks, I got a chance to stumble through dining out, going to parties and even “having a bad day”. The difference with this diet plan is that you recover very quickly, and you get tools to steer away from the problem areas next time. When I saw my before and after pictures I couldn’t believe I let myself get to where I was when i started, but more importantly, I couldn’t believe where I ended up! I feel great. I am getting compliments of how good I look. I am inspired to keep going with the help of the Transitions Team!

First thing that’s worked for me because it’s structured. I’m not set free to try to count points and calories. My only drawback are the food choices. Lots of spicy Mexican food I do not like..

Prior to 2011, my weight wasn’t really an issue. I made smart food choices and exercised regularly. Then I had a full hysterectomy and it threw me into menopause immediately at the young age of 43! So over the past 10 years my weight started going up and up. From time to time, I’d lose some, but I would just keep gaining it back. Eventually I just started to accept it and tell myself, “Oh well, it is what it is, but I have no control over it.” But then two years ago, my family suffered a tragedy
The program was very easy to follow ... with the loss of my 21-year-old niece who was taken from us far too soon. She was a beautiful young girl who was going places in life but was now gone. Then six short weeks later, I lost my dad and then four months later, Covid-19 hit and I did not do well with isolation at all! I started unraveling, I started stress eating, I started eating just because I could, I started eating out more due to boredom, and I found myself ordering takeout and I justified it by saying I was helping to keep restaurants afloat 3-4 times per week. I stopped going to the gym 3-4 times per week and I just ate my sorrows away! Come July, I was short-winded and wasn’t feeling well at all so I decided that I needed to gain control back. It took me several weeks, but I finally decided that I needed help and needed to make some drastic changes. I took the first step by calling Transition and making an appointment. After my consult, I knew this was just what I needed to help me gain control again. I needed to take all the thinking out of it. I just needed someone to tell me what to do. Having the 1-on-1 weekly visits was just what I needed to keep myself accountable. Joe and Cheryl and the entire staff have been amazing and instrumental with my success story. I never once felt like I was being judged. They truly care and want you to succeed. I now have all the tools and an amazing home gym that I need to continue to succeed. I’m back to setting daily, weekly, and monthly goals for myself to be the best I can be going forward. I’m also back to tracking everything that I consume each and every day. I am so proud to say that I am down 43 pounds and I’m moving every day. It’s so nice to look at myself in the mirror and finally see myself again!

Just wanted to thank the team at Transition Medical Weight Loss, I followed the program and 13 weeks later I am down 53 pounds. It really works, not to say that a couple of weeks that I tried to be smarter than the plan, I added a small glass of OJ, and I did not lose as much that week. During the weekly appointment I was open about the “cheating” with Joe & Cheryl and got right back on track. Now onto the maintenance program to maintain the new me.

I had been trying to lose weight for the last 20 years, but could not do it. But thanks to the awesome team at Transition Medical Weight Loss, now I have lost the weight and feel great. The key for me was I learned that I can eat smaller portions and not be hungry. It was also very helpful to be taught what foods are healthier to eat and why they are good or bad. Thank you very much! Cheryl is the best! Love her.

Watching my weight spiral out of control, combined with not feeling great overall and knowing I needed and wanted to do something about it, I made one of the best decisions of my life and joined the Transition team on a journey to better health and weight. Being able to still eat yummy foods and snacks in addition to having weekly consultations to get advice, support and a weight loss plan personalized to my preferences and needs helped me be successful and stay motivated.
The program was very easy to follow ... The unwavering support, expertise, helpfulness and guidance is what makes the Transitions team so incredibly wonderful and exceptionally awesome! Six months later and 40 lbs lighter, I feel healthier, thinner and know what I need to do to keep the weight off and continue to be successful. What I have achieved and learned is absolutely invaluable — and I could not thank my friends at Transition enough for all they have done for me to help me reach my weight loss goal! From the bottom of my heart: Thank You!

I have struggled with my weight for 10 years, during active duty in the Marine Corps and since leaving the service. I tried numerous types of diets and diet supplements but nothing could keep the weight down and if it did my energy disappeared and I had to revert back. This program fixed all that, not only did I lose 65lbs, my energy levels increased, I am in a much better mood all the time, and I have no issues maintaining the diet itself. During my time on the program I went from
The program was very easy to follow ... a slow jog/walk of about a mile in the mornings a few times a week and a short bike ride, to running a 5k almost every morning and pushing it up to 7k on a few days a week just for fun. This program is a mix of diet and exercise and unlike many other programs, this is designed to keep your energy level high so you can get out there. Since originally writing this review I have also completed multiple half marathons, a 30k trail run, and much more. Currently training for my first Marathon. over a year since finishing the 6 month program I was on and I still haven’t gained a pound of it back.

Transition Medical Weight Loss offers an amazing program that not only provides an easy to follow diet plan to lose weight, but also teaches you on how to keep the weight off! I’ve been coming here since the very beginning and they have completely changed my life. I lost almost 70 pounds with the support of the team and haven’t looked back. Cannot recommend more!

They gave me hope when I didn’t have any left. My dad was one of their early adopters to the program and despite the age difference he is almost an exact copy of me. Seeing him pull through the same problem I was facing at his age made me finally stand up and take the first step. I was hesitant at first because with most diets, I never really lost any weight but rather just stayed the same weight. When I would give up then my weight just kept gaining and I was afraid of going ... to the doctor and weighing myself to be even more disappointed. But, when I met Joe for the first time from Transition Medical he encouraged and welcomed me instantly and I decided to finally go for it. Immediately I saw results of losing 16 lbs the first week and when I expected it to just taper off there, week after week I lost 3-6 lbs. After twelve weeks when I originally hoped to break 50 lbs lost, I have stepped back and found I broke that goal and more by reaching 60 lbs total. The meals Transition had to offer were all perfect because of the wide variety and the best thing was the Transition team was always working hard to bring in more and more for their clients to be able to have. Soon they had pretty much a grocery store’s worth of selection, which when dieting is crucial for people like me who love eating all kinds of food. I can’t thank Transition Medical and its Staff enough for making a dream I was slowly giving up on a reality. My fiancee and I are in your debt and I can’t wait to work with you all more during my maintenance program and I plan to recommend you to anyone willing to listen.

Transitions medical weight loss has been a God send to me. Cheryl has been so encouraging, even when I felt like I was losing ground on weight loss. Joe has given me great ideas to restart building muscle and loosing inches. Donna has always had a smile and gets just as excited when you are excited. The food plan and exercise plan are easy to follow, even for those who have been inactive for years. Best money spent.

“Before Transition, weight loss had just been “something I need to do.” For a long time, I made one excuse after another for not starting to take better care of myself. My weight went up, my medications increased; in short, I had given up on myself. I wasn’t motivated to do anything.
I joined the program with my husband, Rick. We were hesitant at first because of the cost. It took us three months from our initial consult to ... “bite the bullet” and sign up. I believe doing the program together made it easier for us to stay on track. Not to mention competing to be the biggest loser for the week! We signed up for 24 weeks. I truly did not think I would last that long, but the Transition team proved me wrong.
I was nervous the first week as only drinking shakes and protein bars seemed impossible. I was surprised to find that I was not hungry. I thought if this is the hardest part, I can definitely do this!
I also opted to join a gym [which was included with the program]. This is something I thought I would never do. I HATED EXERCISING! Well, now I can say I don’t hate it anymore. I still don’t love it, but we are working on our relationship. 😊
As the weeks continued, the meals and snacks continued to keep my appetite satisfied. The variety of options kept things fresh. The weekly visits were helpful, especially if I had questions regarding eating “off plan” foods. I started the program in October, which meant I had to deal with holiday gatherings. Joe and Cheryl were so invested in my success and their advice was easy to follow. My weight dropped an average of 2-3 pounds per week. After 24 weeks, I have lost 50 pounds!! I am not at my goal…yet. I feel better, my clothes are all too big, but I refuse to go shopping until I reach my goal.
I just started the maintenance program so I can continue to work towards my goal. I am confident that it will be reached with the help of the Transition team, my husband, and my own commitment to our well-being.”

I was 226 pounds in July when I started and lost 57.5 pounds by the end of November. I was used to eating 3000 to 4000 calories per day and would have never gotten to where I am today without this program. The best part is the foods are delicious and I don’t even feel hungry on 1000 to 1200 calories per day. I thank God, Dr. Marino and Dr. Korbey for this amazing transformation! I am now maintaining my weight loss in the maintenance program.

My high school aged son was gaining weight…too much weight for his age. Nothing I was doing helped my son lose anything, so rather than let this continue I took him to Transition Medical Weight Loss. The food plan fit right in with his school day routine which makes this diet very easy to follow. The staff at Transition are very friendly and encouraging, which made this feel like we were working with people who really cared for him. With their food plan and their help, my son has ... lost 20 pounds in 5 weeks and many inches to boot. A complete 180 from where we were a month ago. If you are worried about someone’s weight…just go. Do this. The staff here will help you too and make you wonder why you waited so long.

I’m days away from completing the eight week program…with the help and support of the Transitional Medical Weight Loss team I will meet my goal of losing 25 lbs. I would strongly recommend the program to anyone considering a weight loss program.

I realized I was too heavy when I no longer could fit into clothes in normal “typical” sizes, and when I was tiring faster doing the things I liked to do, i.e. hiking, bicycling, long walks, yardwork, etc. I was feeling miserable and needed to change! I wanted to be healthy in my older age. Weight Watchers worked for a while but didn’t last. Dr. Feldmann recommended this program. I feel like it is the best thing I could have done for myself. The Transition team is totally awesome and supportive. ... They help you every step of the way! There is no guessing what you need to do. When going out to eat, I am making the best choices and still having what I want. Thank you! Thank you!!

Last October I had to stay at a hotel for work travel. I was getting ready for my day and I came out of the bathroom and faced a full length mirror that was directly in front of me. I was absolutely horrified. I was huge. I was the heaviest I've ever been in my whole life. I just stared at myself and was so distraught. I physically felt terrible. I was exhausted, I was struggling with mobility, my knees hurt, my back hurt and I absolutely hated my physical self. I looked so unprofessional in my ill-fitting, fat lady clothes. I had called Transition at least twice before but used the cost of the program as an excuse not to join. That day looking at my reflection I realized that if I continued on my current path my medical costs would far exceed the cost of the Transition program. Also not to mention the cost to my mental and emotional health and loss of quality of life. I called Joe that week and went and saw him as soon as I got back from my trip. It was the best decision I could've made. Joe and all the staff there that day were amazing! I haven't looked back since. Joe and I talked and decided that I would start taking weight loss medication. It is such a powerful tool that helps me along with my health journey. I've lost 36 pounds and only have 24 more to goal! I've learned to listen to my body and eat when I'm hungry and stop when I'm full. My clothes fit and look so much better. I've stopped numbing myself with alcohol and food. I look forward to some form of exercise every day. (I march in place and do squats when I can during those never-ending Zoom meetings.) I do not avoid the stairs anymore and am thrilled when I can go up and down with ease! Now when I see my reflection in the mirror I see a healthier, happier person looking back at me. I am eternally grateful to the Transition staff for helping me save my own life.
