Dr. Russell:

Just begin to walk a bit more and just beginning very simple changes can make a big difference. And I think that probably the most important thing is to remain hopeful. It didn’t happen right away and you won’t lose the weight right away, but appreciate that it’s a very long process with ups and downs, but ultimately, if you plan well and you work hard towards that goal, you can achieve what you want to achieve.
