“I came to Kathryn when I was at the point of making a decision between getting gastric bypass or some form of surgery to help me lose the weight I needed to so I wouldn’t die too young. I am part of a “fat” family with a family history full of things like diabetes, heart disease, and high BP. I am an ex college and pro football player that rapidly became out of shape after I was finished playing. I love to eat and I really enjoy food and I always thought that that was my problem. I had become emotionally attached to food and I associated eating with any kind of emotion – happy, sad, depressed – whatever I felt I ate.

I have made the most amazing improvements to my life that I have ever seen. I no longer see food as my enemy and I rarely eat because of emotions. I have learned to “feel” how hungry I am and to eat until I am satisfied. The most amazing thing is I have kept this weight off, no more roller-coastering through “diets” and no more feelings of failure or depression. I look forward to my future now instead of dreading it, thanks for everything Kathryn, you have made this once pipe dream of mine come true.”
