I heard in our lives there are events and people that change the course of our lives. In the 12 weeks I met with Evelyn, I found out about a major event in my life, being diagnosed with DCIS (stage ZERO cancer). Stage 0 might not sound bad, but I was at the right place at the right time with Evelyn. She taught me how food plays a major part in illnesses and helped me make the right choices of what foods to eat and which to stay away from for my specific diagnosis. I lost both weight and inches in the 12 weeks, but more importantly learned the value of whole foods and healthy eating.
I am the type who needs hand holding and with Ev’s personalized support I learned so much more than I could reading books & articles because she concentrated on my specific needs. The weekly accountability kept me focused during the week and her practical suggestions of which snacks to eat and recipe ideas will continue to help me down the road.
I need to take care of my health issues right now and Evelyn has led me in the right direction with the right people. I will continue with my journey of keeping carbohydrates low and staying away from sugar and processed foods, eating whole foods and when I’m done taking care of my recent diagnosis, Evelyn will still be there to help me keep on track for a very long time.
