Melody Pierce – Personal Fit, Fun and Fabulous Coach
Melody was over 300 pounds when she began seeing Dr. Hartford. Little did she know that walking through the door of Dr. Hartford’s office that first day would change her life forever! She was diabetic, exhausted, and depressed, but very motivated to change her unhealthy habits.
What brought her to this point was an unfortunate accident. A caterer and event planner, Melody had slipped on a puddle of water and shattered her leg. Because of numerous complications, she was in a cast up to her hip for three years! Wheelchair-bound, she became overweight and depressed. Also during that time, her marriage ended, now a single mother of 2 small children Melody had to find a way to provide for her family.
When she graduated to an air cast, she decided to become a patient of Dr. Hartford’s office. She told Dr. Hartford, “I am dying and I need you to help me.” Melody’s medical physician said she would have to have bariatric surgery but before she could she would have to lose at least 30 pounds. Her insurance company approved the utilization of the Fit, Fun & Fabulous lifestyle program to take those 30 pounds off but to her doctors amazement she lost 80 pounds in 12 weeks. She was feeling better and looking better but her physician was still concerned about her A1C numbers and suggested they proceed with surgery.
Melody stayed on the Fit, Fun & Fabulous program and to her doctor’s surprise she rebounded very quickly. More than a year after the surgery Melody continuous to lose weight, unlike many of his other Bariatric patients, and all of her blood values have normalized. To date Melody has lost 157 pounds and still sees the scale changing. She is looking forward tucking some of that extra skin and will use the program before and after the surgery, first to prepare for the medical procedure, then to clean up the toxins from the medications, anesthetic and hospital food she will have.
Melody is a shining example of how even medically challenged patients can use the program to cleanse their system, target challenging areas and maintain their highest level of health, no matter what their health challenges.
Melody says Dr. Hartford provided physical and emotional support that saved her life. Through chiropractic care, a shoulder to lean on, integrated health care and the Fit, Fun and Fabulous program, developed by Dr. Hartford, Melody is now full of energy, is off all her diabetes medications, and works at the office that saved her life! Today she helps to run Health Pyramid, and hopefully assist others in saving their lives, too! In fact, she became a certified organic chef and wrote Fit, Fun and Fabulous Food: Healthy Meals Your Body Will Love.
