50 lbs lost! David shares his weight loss story with Doctor Obi Chukwuocha’s medical care at Worthy Weight Loss in Plano, Texas.

I chose Worthy Weight Loss because a co-worker was very successful by going to Worthy Weight Loss. Before meeting Dr. Obi, I struggled to lose weight and keep it off. I would lose 10 pounds and gain 15 pounds or I wouldn’t lose anything at all.

To date, I have lost approx. 70 pounds and I feel great. I am stronger than I have ever been, both mentally and physically.

If you are considering weight loss, this is the best place to go. Dr. Obi will teach you what you need to know to be successful. Good Luck on your journey

P.s.: I have also been promoted a couple of times since losing the weight.

My journey with Worthy Weight Loss and Dr. Obi has been life changing. I began my journey in November of 2015. At that time, I was tipping the scales at nearly 200 pounds!! I had little energy, no self-esteem and no motivation. My obesity had robbed me of my joy and ability to live my life as the person I should be.

Dr. Obi approached my obesity as a disease that affected me both physically and emotionally. His approach was to treat the symptoms of my obesity from a medical standpoint and also provide me with the tools to become nutritionally knowledgeable.

Once I had an understanding about how my body worked to burn fat, and what I needed to do to obtain my goals, I lost 65 pounds!

Dr. Obi has supported me every step of the way. Dr. Obi took the time to get to know me, my food triggers and my motivation. He kept me accountable and on track.

I could not have achieved this goal without him and the staff of Worthy Weight Loss!

I started my journey with Dr. Obi over a year ago to lose some weight but for the most part to get healthy the right way. Through education. He looked at my medical history and blood work to determine the best course of action. I have high blood sugar and he has explained to me in great detail how I can keep a handle on it so one day I’m not insulin dependent.

What I like most about the program is the nutritional education you receive.

Dr. Obi always takes the time to answer all of my questions in detail and never rushes me out the door. He provided me with a diet and exercise plan that was easy to follow and maintain. I would recommend them to anyone who is serious about losing weight, eating healthy and being the best you can be.

My name is David. I came to see Dr. Obi with my wife about a year and a half ago. My wife was trying to lose some weight gained during pregnancy and her doctor recommended Dr. Obi. I had been traveling with my job for many years and had gained some extra weight that I wanted to lose. Due to my busy work schedule, it was hard to eat healthy and exercise while on the road. Another reason is it would not be fair for me to continue eating my way and for my wife to be on a restricted diet.  So it just made sense to do it together.

During the initial consultation, Dr. Obi was very approachable, and his method almost seemed too easy. I decided if I was going to do this, I was going to go all in.  After the first weigh in, Dr. Obi was impressed with the amount of weight I lost without exercise. I was very strict with my diet. I would even pick croutons out salads. The weight continued to come off quickly. I met my goal weight within a few months and decided I still could lose more weight.

I ended up losing about 55 pounds and have settled around 50 pounds. My weight has maintained now for almost a year.

Dr. Obi just doesn’t tell you how to lose weight but also how to manage it. Your weight will fluctuate, but you know what to do if you get close to your action or panic weight.  Just evaluate what you’ve been eating and correct it.

I would recommend Dr. Obi to anyone who is looking to lose a few pounds or a lot. All I know is his method worked for me and I’m sure it will work for you.

Heart disease runs on my dad’s side of the family, so I visited a cardiologist to make sure I was doing everything I could to prevent future issues. Luckily everything was fine except for my weight. At 335 pounds, my cardiologist knew the weight was going to cause me medical issues in the future. He gave me a business card to Worthy Weight Loss and said to call them as he had other patients that had success with the Worthy Weight Loss program.

Being a skeptic, I already knew that the program was going to be the typical eat less and exercise more. So the call to Worthy Weight Loss actually did not happen until 9 months later and I owe thanks to my wife for being the one to make the call. She was wanting to lose weight as well, so she made the appointment.

Amazingly, my perception of the program was wrong. While there is calorie reduction and the expectation of exercise, Dr. Obi’s approach is from the inside out. Each program is tailored to your body’s chemistry and makeup. While I thought I was relatively healthy, I discovered that I had issues like insulin resistance and low thyroid that were working against my prior attempts to lose weight. Once those items were brought under control and I followed the nutrition requirements, the weight started dropping.

One of the things that has made this program work for me is the ability to still eat a lot of foods I enjoyed before. So far, I’m down 80 pounds!

Life is a lot easier now, from projects around the house, climbing stairs, to my passion of scuba diving. As a divemaster, it is important to give your clients the perception that you’re healthy and will be able to assist them in the event of an emergency. At 335 pound, I did not feel like I was a very good example of what a divemaster should be. Now I can introduce myself with confidence and I’m far more nimble in the water when it comes to taking care of my client’s needs.

They care about their patients and really do everything they can to ensure that you’re successful.

I have struggled with weight all my life and this is the first time that I’ve been on a program that I feel like I can stick with for life. I’m so glad my wife made the call and only regret that I did not make the call on the day I got the card.

For the first half of my life, diet and exercise was a non-issue. I can remember back then, I was pregnant with my son, eating a hot fudge sundae every day and I think I actually lost weight. But somewhere in my mid-twenties, something changed. One year in particular, while I was in college, over the course of the summer months, I gained 25 pounds. I made a lot of excuses like “the dryer was shrinking my clothes” or “that scale is just not working right.”  It wasn’t until I went back to school that fall semester, taking a television production class that I realized that I had, in fact, gained weight. We were playing around with the cameras, and seeing myself on the video monitor was a slap in my face. I couldn’t blame the clothes dryer anymore.

Fast forward about twenty years to present. I had continued to gain weight (more gradually now) over the years. And even though I knew it wasn’t the dryers fault anymore, eating hamburgers and pizza everyday was still my normal diet. The craziness of everyday living, paired with a lack of priority, and not really knowing how to eat, made me complacent with my physical appearance. Never mind how many daily medications I was on – all due to being overweight.

But that is only half the story. Heart disease is extremely prevalent in my husband’s family and being overweight has been a struggle for him as well. It’s actually almost ironic because we lead a pretty active lifestyle when it comes to hobbies. At the top of our list is scuba diving – we are very passionate about this! But our diet and exercise was not conducive to this passion.

When we were referred to Dr. Obi, we held on to this business card for several months before we called. Like any other weight-loss program, we had doubts it would be any different than anything else we had tried in the past. We couldn’t have been more wrong. We’ve been on the program for nine months now and together, we have lost what adds up to a small adult.

This program really has been life changing.  I’m off several of my daily meds…

and the best news of all, the dryer stopped shrinking my clothes!

I’m not going to say it has been easy or that I’ve stopped thinking about eating a hamburger every day. But I can say that Dr. Obi has given me the tools and the knowledge I need to continue on this path for the rest of my life. This program is not the latest fad; this is a program for the rest of my life. Would I recommend Dr. Obi? You bet! I would and I have.

My name is Demetra and I am a proud patient of the Worthy Weight Loss Center. My journey started October 11, 2014. I had decided I needed to change my life for the better. I was tired of being overweight and unhappy. I wanted to look and feel good about myself again. In the past, I had tried to lose the weight but did not know the proper way to do it. So one day at work, I saw my co-worker pass by my office and she looked amazing. She had lost a lot of weight. Two weeks later, I noticed again she had lost even more weight…so I asked her “what are you doing to lose so much weight.” She talked to me about Dr. Obi and his weight loss plan. I then decided this is what I wanted to do. Since that day my life has changed forever!!

I am 50 lbs lighter and looking fabulous!

Dr. Obi has been the best Doctor any patient could ask for. He truly cares for his patients and works hard to make sure we succeed. His staff is great also. They make you feel positive about yourself and compliment you when you are doing well.

Choosing the Worthy Weight Loss Center was the best investment I have made in myself in a long time.

I now know how to count my carbs and sugar intake.

I read the back of the nutritional label on any product before choosing to eat it. I had to do the work to change my diet. The key to his plan is, you must be ready in the mind (your thinking) and you must do the work. God has truly smiled on me!! Thank you Dr. Obi, I am forever grateful! To God be the glory for the wonderful things he has done!

On my last visit to my cardiologist, I was deeply disturbed by his evaluation of my health. My cholesterol/triglycerides were in the dangerous range and my weight was out of control. I was struggling with daily activity and felt miserable. He recommended that I see Dr. Obi at Worthy Weight Loss because several of his patients had experienced good results with the methods he uses for weight loss.

After the first 6 weeks on Dr. Obi’s weight loss program, all my dangerous cholesterol/triglycerides/blood sugar levels begin to drop towards normal levels. I was very encouraged because I could see progress and knew that this was a plan that I could easily follow. Much of the change has been in eating habits with very little life style change. Dr. Obi gave me a list of food choices that has been very easy to manage.

So far, I have gone down 4 pant sizes and have lost about 40 pounds. That FEELS very good physically and psychologically. The cardio benefits of this has been triglycerides dropping from 342 to 104! My blood sugar level was 125 and now it’s 94.

This is all due to exercise and food choices…not a diet.

I have strongly recommended Dr. Obi to several people. He cares about his patients and I feel a great deal of trust in his suggestions and direction because I have already seen the results. Not only has Dr. Obi moved me away from an unhealthy weight and life-style, but he’s also moved me out of the danger zone…away from diabetes since several of my relatives have this disease.

Thank you, Dr. Obi…you are my hero!
