Susan J., OPTIFAST® Patient
“Sara Schwarz, MS, RD, LDN, has been so wonderful and supportive in this journey. I was underweight for the first 20 years of my life. Since then, after having my first child at age 20, I’ve been overweight with no motivation to lose weight. My doctor’s warning jumpstarted me into searching out ways to lose weight and that’s how I discovered OPTIFAST®. Every question I have, Sara has an answer for and when she doesn’t, she finds the answer. She is always positive and ready to praise you on the weight loss.”
