Testimonials

"I can finally take off my jacket. I have covered my body with jackets for years because I was not pleased with my shape and body weight. After taking advantage of the hands-on cooking and nutrition classes along with the support groups, I now have a better understanding about food and control over food and how it works in the body. I lost several pounds and my doctor has reduced some of my medication and eliminated one. Thank you so much. I have gained my confidence back."

"I use to drink about a liter of soda a day maybe more. I would say, I was addicted. After attending the nutrition education and hands on cooking class, I stop drinking my calories and have switched to other strategies that I have learned in the hands- on nutrition education and cooking class. This is just the first step to many to follow. Thanks now, I re-think my drinks before I consume liquid calories.

"I love to eat, really good tasting foods, but I know it is not totally good for me, especially when it comes to managing my diabetes. After attending the nutrition education and cooking classes, I know that I need both components to manage health more effectively and to achieve the results I want to manifest in my life,.....I know now the relationships between the type of foods I eat and the elevated glucose level readings. I have a much better CONTROL over my portions with the knowledge and understanding I gained by taking the class and attending the monthly support group.
