From my earliest conscious memory, I lived on a hamster wheel of food bliss. Round and round I went. Staring 60 in the face was the time to jump off the wheel. I needed good nutrition and a commitment to exercise. Being extremely athletic when it came to a good brisk sit and a modest walk, the exercise piece was a challenge. I knew I would not do this without an assist. Google and I spent some time together, and I stumbled on the website for RHWC, and it looked promising.
I met Mark, started on my personal fitness journey, to say I was intimidated was an understatement. Mark’s experience prevented my overburdened body from being injured. He seemed to know exactly how much to ask of me to prevent me from walking away. I got to know the other coaches and members and realized they were all there for the same reason. The common denominator was to improve.
I am often asked about the number. For those curious, the number is over 90 pounds. I left that focus behind some time ago. The scale is just another tool to maintain health and no longer a weapon to determine good or bad days. To RHWC, and most especially, Mark, I offer my most sincere thank you for the inexhaustible faith in my ability to continue to improve.

Rick Siegel woke up one morning just before his 50th birthday and decided it was time to turn his lifestyle around 180 degrees. He was miserably out of shape, just under 300 pounds and saw his professional and personal life in the balance. His doctor had been on him to lose weight for years, but the message had never seemed so critical until now.
Rick’s first move was to undergo a lap-band surgery, which he knew would be just the beginning. Following doctor’s orders, Rick saw the surgery as a tool (losing 50 pounds in 4 months), but not the ultimate solution. He knew he needed to become active!
Rick started moving: everything from simple walking to using Wii Fit gaming systems, the weight continued to come off. His motivation was further encouraged, when his wife introduced him to the Roseville Health and Wellness Center. Rick immediately felt at home with the group exercise classes, where he felt challenged and supported at the same time.
Rick currently attends classes 5 days a week at RHWC and says that fitness literally saved his life. He is grateful to the wellness staff that have instructed him and cheered him along the way in meeting his weight loss and fitness goals! Rick has now lost 130 pounds and his advice to anyone on a similar journey is to “begin slowly but remain consistent. You can’t have some days on and some days off. You must be all in or it just won’t work.” Rick is a shining example of someone who MADE IT WORK!

I joined Roseville Health & Wellness Center in January 2012, after retiring from a 35-year Family Medicine practice here in Roseville. I have always been overweight but due to arthritis issues, my mobility limited my activity. As my weight increased, my fatigue after long busy work days made the thought of any type of exercise impossible. When I retired, I was facing knee replacement surgery so I committed to weight loss by getting more fit. One of my patients had given me a gift card for Roseville Health & Wellness Center as a Christmas gift where she worked out. She is a woman much older than me with some significant health issues, who made her commitment to fitness so it made me feel like I certainly could do the same.
I had great advice from RHWC Personal Trainer who devised an exercise program for me taking into account my joint (both shoulders, knee, and hip) issues. I made the commitment to myself and my family to better health through diet and fitness. Over the past 20 months, I have lost over 60 lbs., have significant more energy and get around much better. I’ve had a hip replaced so my mobility has markedly improved with my weight loss and exercise program.
I go to RHWC 3 days a week and ride my bike at hone for 40 minutes on the other days. I’ve vowed to continue my healthy lifestyle.
As a practicing physician, I would recommend similar lifestyle changes for my patients but always found an excuse to not commit for me – too tired – not enough time etc. I finally followed my own advice, after being given the gift of health from a patient who cared enough to want me to see the results she was seeing for herself at RHWC.
I move easier, have more energy and as a result am truly enjoying my family and my retirement.

As Hospital Director at Sutter Roseville, Dennis dedicates himself to improving the health of patients, like so many others his own health was neglected. “When I heard about the 12-week Longevity Program at Roseville Health & Wellness Center I was excited about the opportunity to change my life.

Dennis worked with a variety of wellness practitioners and made significant changes to his health. “I have lost 55 lbs, lowered my cholesterol by 37 points and have more energy than I have ever had, even as a child. RH&WC gave me the tools to improve my lifestyle and quality of life. I encourage others to take the first step.”
