From day 1, Dr. Hanna was amazing. He is very personable and really cares for his patients. I've lost over 100 lbs and with that weight loss came energy, and I was able to get my life back. I went back to school, got my massage therapy license and now I go out dancing almost 3 days a week.

Health Highlights
Eating 10 extra calories a day EQUALS 3500 calories a year EQUALS weight gain of 1 POUND each year.
Begin a big dinner with a low calorie salad (with lots of veggies and low-fat dressing) or a broth based soup. You will consume fewer calories throughout the entire meal.
Smokers are 38% more likely to die after surgery than non-smokers. Quit at least 2 weeks before surgery to cut your risk. And continue the QUIT permanently!
Substitute spaghetti squash for pasta to cut down calories and sugar in your meal.
Never skip meals, eating one meal a day shuts down your metabolism.
Measure and weigh all your food- DO NOT EYEBALL.
Cut down liquid calories, DRINK WATER ONLY. Hot coffee, hot tea or home brewed cold tea without additives are OK too.
Drink only Cafe Americano with non-fat milk or hot tea without additives in coffee shops.
Sweet potatoes are healthier than regular potatoes.
Always carry a healthy snack with you (handful of nuts) in case you get hungry while you are out of your home.
An apple a day does indeed keep the doctor away. Apples are a great snack.
Stay away from creamy sauces and drinks.
Don't skip meals on the day of a party, eat as usual before the event so your appetite is spoiled- you will eat less unhealthy food.
51% of annual weight gain occurs during 6 weeks of the holiday-season at the end of the year.
Never underestimate the power of water- your brain cannot tell the difference between hunger and thirst. Drink a glass of water when you are hungry, wait 30 minutes, if you are still hungry, then you need food.
Eat on a small plate, best way to control your portions. Avoid going for seconds.
If you have nighttime munchies- drink a glass of skim milk or eat a cup of cottage cheese with some berries.
