Convincing Improvements

We have been with Dr Kolender ( Or Dr K ) as we call him since the beginning of his career. Prior to MDVIP he always took the time NEEDED to address any issue regardless of his large patient list. He held what I will call a seminar for his patients informing us that he was going to join MDVIP. The discussion was in depth and his patients asked questions. From there we saw a difference in his approach which was in depth in many aspects. My journey at first was to loose weight and why it was do important. At 5’-6” and 165 pounds I wasn’t feeling comfortable. I have other maintenance health issues that were somewhat affected by the extra weight. Did I buy in at first or even a few years later no. Did I make an effort to do what Dr K impressed upon me and the long term benefits? Maybe 20%. So going forward I wasn’t feeling comfortable within myself and yes I could hear those conversations from him. So we started eating healthier and exercising. Was it easy- heck no. At that point I felt like Dr K was my coach but without pushing me. I wrestled throughout school so I know what pushing means. His approach, conveying his knowledge and overall support started paying off. It took maybe 5 years of small setbacks but the recovery was larger. A big eye opener was the annual physical results that he went over EVERYTHING! I’m now around 138 pounds at 73 and my inflammation markers have been good and yes there is room for improvement always. I feel very comfortable within myself. What’s important is Dr K with his approach and convincing information has a direct affect on my improvements. Yes one has to buy in to the improvements but when we recognize that the bad stuff taste great that’s convincing!
