Patient Stories

My name is Christy and I have been on full program since February 1, 2011. In that time I have lost 108 pounds and am still going strong. I have struggled with weight issues my entire life, dropping some and gaining some but never able to find the right balances. With this program I have achieved constant results and am thrilled with the changes to my body and mind.

After not so patiently waiting for an engagement ring, Warren finally proposed (YEAH!) and was thrilled but almost immediately hit with an overwhelming and almost suffocating fear about dress shopping and walking down the aisle in front of 200+ people. Shortly after our engagement I went to look at the Syracuse University Sheraton as a potential wedding location. As luck would have it, Alexis was the wedding planner and a patient of Dr Scinta’s. To make a long story short, she very highly recommended the program and I immediately scheduled my informational meeting, ultimately becoming a patient.

On March 18, 2011, my good luck continued and I was filmed for TLC’s “Say Yes To the Dress: Big Bliss” (Episode: The Dis-Comfort Zone) at Kleinfeld Bridal shop in NYC. By this point I had lost 30 pounds and was starting to feel better about myself, however dress shopping compounded with a room full of television cameras was very difficult and emotionally exhausting.

With the help of Dr Scinta and her office staff, I am looking forward to both my wedding (12/10/2011), the upcoming dress fittings (a full re-structure will be needed as I have already lost 70 pounds since I bought the dress!) and the rest of my life as a fit married woman and (hopefully) mother!
