Patient Testimonial

By Paula Hendricks - Nutritionist on March 10, 2009

Thank you Dr. Hendricks and Staff – It is such a nice feeling to be thin again!

by Trenton and Barbara Bahr

As an approaching 40 yr old male, I have never really been on a diet, nor felt I needed one until I saw myself in some family snapshots.  ”All my life I was thin and now I have a belly on me!” I thought to myself.  Since my wife was on a national-branded weight loss plan, I thought I would copy her plan for awhile – no success for either of us.  I remember Barbie coming home being all happy about losing 3 ounces.  I do not know why I thought copying her would make me successful in losing weight.  I was frustrated. 

Then I remembered hearing about The Center for Weight Management and Dr. Hendricks through one of my portrait clients and how excited she was to take a family portrait 30 lbs lighter then the last portrait.  I thought maybe this was the place for us.  When I called Dr. Hendricks’ clinic in Roseville, the staff was friendly and helpful and very understanding…  Remember – I’m a man and men don’t ask for help or go to the doctor unless our arm is falling off.  

During the free consultation, Dr. Hendricks explained to me the different programs and options and what I should expect.  I ask him if I would have to take “Diet Pills” and that I’d rather not.   He had several options that did not include diet pills.  I started the program the next day.  I lost 21 lbs. in 5 weeks.  My wife started the next week.  She was so mad that I could do it so fast and easily, but in less than a year, Barbie lost over 40 lbs.  That was six years ago.

Today, Barbie still looks awesome.  We continue to schedule regular maintenance appointments to keep on track and use the products, vitamins and supplements which have helped us maintain our weight over the years. 

Both of us love Dr. Hendricks and his wonderful staff and the amazing change he has made in our lives. He’s the best.
