I've been coming here since July of 2012 and I have been losing weight ever since. I feel so much better since I lost the weight. I have much more confidence, much more "get up and go," much more energy… I feel great!

My life has changed a lot since loosing weight. I have a lot more energy, I'm a lot more open socially, it just seems like I have a lot more fun. I want to go out more instead of just sitting home on the couch.

Every single thing that I have accomplished I really owe to Dr. Kaplan and to the Long Island Weight Loss Institute because without them I would probably still be trying to figure out "what am I doing wrong, what am I doing wrong?" And now, I know what I've done wrong.

Dr. G is amazing, and I really feel so strongly about this program because of him. The advice you're going to get is medical, scientific advice from a passionate person who has been there before.

As a result of this weight loss I'm much more energetic, I have a lot more energy to do things with my child, and I've learned to eat a lot better. If I can do it while raising my child and not having a lot of time and energy to put into weight loss, you can too.

Every time I came to an appointment here I left feeling like, "I can do this! I'm going to keep going, keep exercising, and make the right decisions, and I'm going to be healthy!' And now, every day feels pretty good. I walk out the door excited.

I would definitely recommend the Long Island Weight Loss Institute to others because it works… This program has had a direct effect on my confidence level. I feel like I'm walking tall - I'm only five foot - but I'm walking tall.

I feel completely different now – I’m fit, healthy and full of energy and the world has become a brand new place for me. Everything has changed. I’m more outgoing, I love fashion and clothes and I can wear what I want now. For years, I hid my personality underneath my excess weight and baggy clothing.”

My blood pressure is down, my cholesterol is down, my weight is down – and my self-esteem is way up. I really feel this ultimate change in my life would have been impossible without the help and guidance from the CMWL team.”

This was by far the easiest and most effective diet I’ve ever done. Each week, I receive the guidance and knowledge necessary for me to make appropriate choices. And talk about choices!”

Before I started with CMWL, I had high cholesterol and sleep apnea; now my cholesterol is great and I’m no longer using the sleep apnea machine. My energy has significantly improved and my thinking about food has changed forever.”

I would have to say the best part about losing weight has been self-confidence; it comes into play with everything you do, at least for me. Also, going into a store after having gone from a size 12 to a size 4 to 6!”

The best part about losing weight is being able to be run around with my sons. I coach their baseball teams, so now I can join in without feeling short of breath. I feel energized and always ready to go. I look forward to going to the gym, playing sports and, just running around with my kids. I just feel great.”
