The weight-loss professionals at Elite Wellness and Weight Loss focus on helping patients drop pounds healthfully and permanently through nutritious eating practices and building a strong support system. Each program begins with a comprehensive health check, after which a board-certified bariatric physician may prescribe FDA-approved appetite suppressants, which help curb hunger pangs. During the next month, vitamin B12 injections and supplements help boost the metabolism as patients follow a diet that is high in protein and low in carbohydrates, sugar, and deep-fried butter sculptures. After the initial weight-loss period, staffers help patients cement lifestyle changes to keep the weight off for good. Understanding that some patients may face additional challenges, Elite Wellness and Weight Loss offers Botox cosmetic and Juvederm treatments to smooth away wrinkles and fill in facial features after weight loss.

For most of his life, Ron Green exercised and tried to eat right—a Herculean task, working as he did in the demanding restaurant business. Try as he might, he couldn't get down to a healthy weight. So he decided to hire a personal trainer—and for the first time, he felt himself outrunning the Sisyphean treadmill and inching closer and closer to his goals. The experience so inspired him that he decided to become a trainer himself to help others break out of holding patterns, and deposit their energy into exercises that gave them a return on their investment. Now, certified by the National Academy of Sports, he leads a team of trainers in helping clients through athletic, personal, and group training.

In the signature boot-camp classes, they aim at helping campers lose body fat while sculpting functional muscles, unlike glam muscles only good for filling out sleeves or wowing the admissions board at Harvard. The trainers also supplement sport-specific training, one-on-one sessions, or group training with nutritional guidance to help clients reach their goals quickly.

On any given day, NYTEX Sports Centre's expansive compound––with plentiful courts, fields, and an ice rink––can simultaneously host a youth soccer match, a women's flat-track roller derby, and a rowdy Texas Brahmas professional ice hockey game. As a hub for world-class competitors and recreational athletes of all kinds, the 140,000-square-foot playpen welcomes casual skaters to explore the same full-size rink the CHL pros play on during open-skate sessions and amateur hockey leagues. NYTEX's birthday-party packages also grant rink access to up to 10 partygoers for celebratory skating and "Happy Birthday" songs sung by a chorus of revving Zambonis. Special community events, such as the annual Armed Forces Hockey Classic, call the sport's complex their home, while the on-site Italian restaurant, ZuRoma, replenishes calories spent cheering on favorite teams.

A lifelong athlete, Dr. Lin has collected firsthand wisdom about physiology that he translates into a specialty in sports injury treatment and prevention.
