Chiropractic Success Story

Anita Mills

“At my heaviest, I weighed in at 382 lbs. I was miserable and had back, leg and hip problems and I needed relief. I just decided that enough was enough and I was going to get healthy… Chiropractic care has helped me with everything. My mind, body and soul are now in sync and Chiropractic makes for a better life.”

I started Chiropractic care back in 2008 with Dr. Jeremiah Holmes. I had a fear of Chiropractic care, but due to my husband’s support, I decided to try Chiro One where he went. I was at 382 lbs. and miserable. I had back, leg, and hip problems and I just needed relief.

I have since lost 227 lbs. It was all natural; no pills, no potions and no surgery. I just decided enough was enough. I was going to get healthy one way or another. My family doctor cautioned me that if I didn’t lose weight, I’d be potentially shortening my life by 10 to 15 years and he told me if I would eat 8 oz. of food, I would lose weight. I fought him for years and finally when enough was enough, I took him at his word. Dr. Jeremiah told me that I needed to lose weight, too, to help with my joints and the pressure it was placing on my back, hips and legs. I started eating 8 oz. of food every 3 hours and I am now at 155 lbs.

Chiropractic care was also a huge help. Chiropractic has helped with the issue with my hip, even before I lost all the weight. It made it a little more bearable to walk and then I was able to start walking as exercise and doing Richard
Simmons’ ‘Sweating to the Oldies’ which helped with the moving and weight loss.

Through Chiropractic, I not only became weight healthy, I am now also spiritually and mentally healthy and more well-rounded. Healthy eating was important, but if the body is healthy but still hurting, you have to still search out other things to resolve to have a healthy and fulfilled life. Before Chiropractic, I couldn’t walk long distances or do any exercises because of the pain in my hips, back and legs. My main reason for going to be seen was to see what could be done about my back and legs hurting so much. I had a lot of back and hip pain and was going to try anything to relieve that and with my treatment, it did help with relieving some of the pain.

Chiropractic care is one way that helps with everything else–your mind, body and soul is in sync– and it makes for a better life. When the body is in tune and working together, everything is SO much happier and wonderful. I was called to speak at Chiro One Wellness Center of Ashland’s ‘Eat like a Pig’ workshop and share my story. I have always said to everyone that no matter what happens with my weight loss that I want to be able to help someone have a better quality of life. It has never been about me; I wanted to share my journey so others can see I am an ordinary person and with the right tools and guidance, anyone can succeed with better health and weight loss. You don’t have to have surgery or do crazy things. You can just get good guidance and make better food choices and success will follow! The people that were there were very receptive during the workshop and I was so grateful for being able to share my weight loss journey with them! I also have a facebook page that has healthy living information and I have posted the pics from Chiro One. Feel free to check it out if you are interested. www.facebook.com/my3hourdiet.
