She said, “Who would have ever thought exercise could be fun? But it really is. After my weight-loss surgery, my Centegra physician gave me a two-month WellBridge membership referral to join Centegra Health Bridge Fitness Centers. My goal was to become healthier, not just lose weight. Losing weight was a fortunate side effect. I was looking to control my diabetes, my high blood pressure and my high cholesterol.”

Hauptly has lost 111 pounds. She was on five different blood pressure and diabetes medications and is now down to one.

“Centegra has truly provided me every service I need to continue to be successful,” Hauptly said.
