Mike's Weight Loss Story Video Hello! My name is Mike Ford. I am the afternoon DJ on Mix 103.1. I'm also a proud Dad of two. I keep a busy schedule. I had a lot of reasons to not diet and instead stay on the same course I'd been on for years--hit and miss exercise, eating the wrong foods and eating just too much, and letting life's stresses make my health low on the priority list. Last August, when my life was about as chaotic as possible, I decided to make a change that started with me. I confronted the fact that my excess weight was derailing my life and hurting my future with my children. I believed that if I could get rid of the extra weight and learn some solid, reasonable, healthy lifestyle skills, I would be able to cope better with life and all its surprises. Seven months later, I am 125 pounds lighter and I have never felt better. Here's what I didn't do: I didn't have surgery; I didn't starve myself; I didn't follow the latest fad diet. Here's what I did do: I had a medical work-up done at Alaska Premier Health; I chose to go on the Optifast Meal Replacement program; I kept all my appointments, weighing in every week; I began with basic exercises and now work out 5 days a week. Several weeks ago, I began adding grocery store foods back into my meal plans. I'll soon be at my goal weight. I have learned to choose my food with care and I'm keeping up my activity. I truly feel like I'm 20 years younger. My kids are so proud. Their friends keep saying "Wow Mr. Ford!" My friends, family and fellow employees can't hide their surprise at the wonderful changes they see in me. I tell you, if I can do this, anyone can! Maybe you're like I was. Or maybe you've tried Optifast before and lost interest. Or maybe you've gained back weight and feel like a failure. If so, I hope you'll realize that you are worth the time and energy it takes - and it takes plenty of both - to get healthy. Once you feel as good as I do, you'll understand why I now feel so strongly about sharing my story. Don't waste your time, your life or your money trying to find a quick fix solution. Call Alaska Premier Health (907-561-3488). Do it now. Those folks have been helping Alaskans like you and me "get back to life" for over 15 years. I'm living proof! Here's to a healthy you! |
