When I first visited the clinic... I had almost no energy, I was lost and didn’t know where to turn to help me get my health and weight under control. I had tried several diets with little success. I was ready and needed a massive change in my life. My weight was up...

Chris & Mandy

Chris: A friend suggested that I should visit Dr. Mark…but didn’t really know why. Honestly, I was at the heaviest point in my life (around 260 pounds). I had tried several weight loss programs, but nothing seemed to last. I have always said, “God made me to love...

We both knew we needed to do something different. We were both overweight and did not have a lot of energy. My pant size kept getting bigger and we knew something needed to change. We tried several different things but didn’t find anything that worked until visiting...

Kim Norton

This is what my life used to look like: I went to work and gave everything I had, ran errands on the way home, cooked dinner for my husband and kids and then fell asleep on the couch exhausted. The next day, I would do it all over again.  After talking to my friends...

Tina

I started this program when I weighed about 177. I set a goal to be 150 in six months. I told Dr. Mark I am just not getting the results that I want and he said "I want you to try the SHAPE program." This program worked for me, not only did I lose weight, but it was...
