Common Questions
Is it really
possible to get healthier once you have high blood pressure, high
cholesterol, or type II diabetes--and without drugs?
Yes, absolutely.
Those conditions are a result of choices over time. Start making
different choices NOW and your health FUTURE can be very different from
your health HISTORY. Now, if you're already taking prescribed
medications, please don't stop that! I'll work with you, and
you'll continue working with your medical professionals. Together,
making bite-sized changes in your diet and lifestyle, we'll get you on a
healthier path which may result in your reducing or eliminating the need
for prescriptions.
Ok, but it's genetic for me.
It's all through my family.
There is hope! I used
to be in the prediabetic category. I have Type II Diabetes all
through my family too, and my grandmother suffered many mini-strokes, high
blood pressure, cataracts, macular degeneration, and peripheral
neuropathy before she finally died of cardiovascular disease. My mother may have had diabetes, but she died of colorectal
cancer before it could be confirmed.
I decided very early, when my
mother died at the age of 41, that I was going to have a different
health history. I started making different choices, evaluating a
number of foods and tools, and now I can teach you! Get the full
story here.
Sometimes I like structure.
I want to be told what to do. Sometimes I just want to do it
myself.
You're going to love this
program. Think of me as a guide, and you get to set the itinerary.
Simply follow my step-by-step, bite-sized recommendations and you too can
have more energy, lose weight, eat healthy food that tastes good, get
rid of crazy cravings, reduce
your blood pressure and cholesterol, and get control of your life
again. But the actions you take are completely up to you.
How long will this take?
You can do it fast or slow, but it will take time
either way. It probably took years for your health situation to
look the way it does today, and it's going to take concentrated,
focused, enthusiastic effort to paint a different picture. Let's
work together for six months, and I guarantee that if you follow my
simple instructions, your life will not be the same!
We're going to look at what you feed your
body, as well as what you feed your mind. You may find you want
some different nourishment!
Who do you work with?
My most
successful clients are highly-motivated go-getters who understand
the connection between diet, nutrition, and lifestyle. You've done
the yo-yo-diet thing. You know what gets in your way. You
are tired of dieting, willing to do
anything (including trying new foods and new habits),
to get out of your own way, because you understand that your future is
based on the decisions you make and the actions you take today.
I do work
with many folks who are diabetic or pre-diabetic, but
that's not a restriction. If you have a passion for healthy
living and you want to learn what that means or do more of that, I'd
love to talk with you.
Other successful clients are
=> stay-at-home moms who want to improve the
health of their
children and themselves by being a better role model,
=> busy
entrepreneurs in the nutrition industry who know they need
to walk their talk to be successful personally as well as
professionally, and
=> folks who've
tried every diet under the sun
and just want to find a way to eat that will be comfortable and healthy
for the rest of their life.
Those who
don't do well with this program are "just give me a diet" folks who are
looking for a quick gimmick to fit in a bathing suit or a dress for a
reunion in three weeks. No fad diets here, and no quick fixes. If
you do well with a "fix it for me" kind of plan, you will not find that
here.
What does it take to get
started?
Well,
answer this first: Are you committed to changing your own health?
Is it time to make your own health
a priority?
Check out which
coaching program
might be right for you, and then please
contact me to set up a get-acquainted session. This
one-hour conversation will be a good start to see if we're
a good fit.
