What’s Possible with Zerona Week By Week – Dr. Don’s Personal Update

Ok so it is now time for an update…

If you will recall a little over 3 weeks ago I was discussed with myself and what the holidays (yes, I’m blaming the holidays) did to me and my waist!

You can look back at the other blogs to refresh your memory…

So, I decided to do want I prescribe to my patients.

What is that exactly?

Well it depends greatly on what I find out about you… having said that, this is what I did as I would have recommended to someone like me.

1 – I started with a cleanse that would last for 21 one days. It is a food elimination cleanse.  In other words there are certain foods you eliminate from your selection of food.  I was eating fish and chicken and lots of fruit and veggies.  With that cleanse I also took nutrition and supplements that are specific to my lab results.  (yes, lab results! That’s a topic for a whole different conversation/blog).  During this cleanse I’m not counting calories… I’m not eating prepackaged frozen dinners… I’m not replacing meals with power protein shakes… I’m not starving myself.  This is by far the best cleanse program out there!  I’ve seen a lot!

2 – A week after, that I started the Zerona laser – every other day. 3 times per week.  I did not get a lymphatic massage or digestive massage.  Heck, it was hard enough for me to lay down for 40 minutes those there times per week.  But I have to say that it was nice to sit back and do some casual reading. I did this for 2 weeks.

3 – the next step is to exercise.  This I have not yet started… so let me give you the results as they stand now.

Results…

After 1 week I lost 9 pounds…

After 2 weeks I lost a total of 11 pounds…

em>After 3 weeks I lost a total of 13 pounds… and I’ve lost 3.25 inches to my waist and a quarter of an inch to my hips.  I’ve only targeted the laser to my waist.

Once again I am very impressed with the effectiveness of the laser when combined with my nutrition protocol.

However, I’m not yet done! I want to now add exercising to my routine!  That will be fun, the hardest part is making time to get it done.  I’m going to shoot for 4 times per week, 30 minutes each time.

I’ll let you know the progress in a week or two…

I have to tell you of a bi-product of my doing this… My wife has been motivated to get back in shape too.  Having a baby has left her with some unwanted fat and so she is going to approach things differently… I doubt she’ll be willing to let me share with you her numbers. ;)

Another benefit is I feel so much better – more energy, more confidence knowing my close fit better… and heck, who doesn’t like to be asked “you’re looking great, what are you doing to lose weight.”

Blessings,
Dr. Troy Don, DC QME

Highest Flattery for Dr. Don’s Zerona Blog… oh really?

Before I share with you the shocking main point of today’s blog, I first wanted to say thank you!

For those of you who are subscribing to and commenting on my blog: thank you for the fantastic feed back, support, and sharing of my site with others.

This site was ORIGINALLY designed as an information source, a resource, a reference guide for MY patients… which it has accomplished nicely.  It’s humbling and a bit shocking that this site has become THE SOURCE throughout the entire globe.  I have doctors and patients throughout the world asking me questions (email has become something of a nightmare.)

NOT SURPRISINGLY… this site has also become a source of information for other doctors…

SURPRISINGLY… many sites use my blog as a “Word for word” resource!

They say “imitation” is the highest form of a flattery…

Okay fine.

But to use my material word for word?  That’s not flattery that’s something else.

Don’t get me wrong… I am very happy and willing to allow doctors to use my information for their patients … heck, they can even use my material on their site…

… Just give me some credit. :-)

All of this came to me as a result of patients telling me about other website out there that were using my material.  I told them that didn’t bother me.  Then they explained that my information is being “sold” or “written” as if was the Doctor’s own information.

I want to believe that all of these “word for word” occurrences were done without the doctor’s knowledge – you see most doctors do not actually write their blogs, but rather have other write for them.  So the doctors have no idea this is being done.

If you are one of those website developers… please put my material in your own words… it helps everyone.  And if you do feel like using my material “word for word”, simply give me credit. :-)

On the bright side… I guess this challenge comes with the territory.

Thanks again for making my site so popular.

Stay tuned because I have a lot more in store for you…

Blessings,

Dr. Don

PS – Also thank you to Erchonia Medical (www.erchonia.com), Dr. Paul Maguire, Dr. Madison Spurlock (www.bodybylaser.com) for your support and help.

How Easy Is The Zerona Laser… Really?

Ok… I don’t know how many times I said this to the many consultation/emails/phone calls/etc… but I’ll say it again.

The Zerona Laser and my program is really really easy…

But don’t take my word for it!  Seriously!

I know how skeptical you are… we all are to some degree. I was skeptical when I first heard about the Zerona laser and the results from the laser alone.  That’s why I tried it on myself.

After all, you want me to believe that shining a laser over my trouble fat areas… a laser that I cant even feel be the way… is going to get ride of that 4 inches of circumference to my waist/hips/thighs in only 2 weeks?

Ya right!

Look, I hear it all the time.   Even after I show them the credible research and FDA approvals… After I share with them the physiology and photochemistry…  After I share with them before and after pictures of patients.  Even then… to some degree they don’t believe how easy and real this is.

I even get requests from doctors to allow a potential patient talk to some of my patients to see if it’s the real deal.

Here’s what tends to work best to satisfy our innate and conditioned skepticism… I let my patients speak for me.

So if you are a person wanting to take the next step, that being a consultation, watch this and see if it satisfies your desire.

If you still have questions about the Zerona laser feel free to submit them here.  Though I am very busy between my office in Pasadena, CA and Rancho Cucamonga, CA I do the best I can to reply to your blogs.

And if you are interested in a consultation with me… just call the office.

Blessings,

Dr. Don
