Dameron Hospital | Health Outlook | Spring 2019

“One of my most significant lifestyle changes that has made a difference is carving out time for my health and wellness every day. I work out daily with a combination of cardio and strength training, and it aligns perfectly with my youth sports team coaching responsibilities. I really don’t like to sit still, and now my body can keep up with my zest for life. I’m finally able to do everything I want to do now.” Imada says he didn’t realize how much his health had been affected by the extra weight until it was gone. Then he was able to begin working out and leading an active life again. “I feel like I’m 20 years younger and can take on the world,” Imada says. “Based on my improved health status and reduced reliance on medications, I’m confident that I will be here for my family for many years to come. I’m a new man thanks to Dr. Samarkandy and the Dameron Bariatric Weight Loss team.” dameronhospital.org 5 READY FOR A CHANGE? Our team is here to help.
