Bill was very encouraging and patient with me as he continued to guide me toward better nutrition. I have made life changes in the way I eat and exercise. I no longer throw something in my mouth to satisfy a whim or hunger, but take time to reach for something healthful. I am thankful for going through this program. I have often thought it has probably saved my life!
I began changing my eating habits and exercising just prior to signing up with Medi-Share. I have appreciated my consultant's expressions of help and concern and also her prayers. They are encouraging and help keep me pressing toward the goal that I have set for myself. Thank You.
I just want to share what a blessing it has been to have CCM's help in restoring my health. I was very apprehensive when I first found out that I would have to "report" to someone every week. That meant that I would be accountable to someone. Yikes!! My weight has been a life-long struggle for me, and the only way I have been able to lose weight before was by not eating. Having someone call every week has kept me on track. She has offered much needed help and a listening ear. It hasn't always been easy, but I am grateful I haven't had to do this alone. CCM has great programs and a wonderful website full of helpful information. I know that I am equipped now to never see 172 lbs. again. For that I praise God! Thank you so much for this ministry. I believe it has prolonged my life and taught me how to honor God through how I treat my body.
Angela Dodson, my health consultant was a great "coach". I liked her "forthrightness" ability to inform and care sincerely. She knows her stuff, she had a great sense of humor, directed me in a focus that I believe honors the Lord with my health concerns, especially as I've turned 60. She also showed interest in what I do professionally which went beyond only being interested in me fulfilling a program for health.
When I was first notified about the Restore program, I was less than enthusiastic. In fact, I was negative. But, I have thoroughly enjoyed and I've benefited greatly from utilizing the Restore Program. I have lost 26 lbs. and have maintained the weight loss. My cholesterol levels have been reduced to acceptable levels and my over-all health is very good. It has been very beneficial to work with a health consultant (coach) during this time. The accountability factor has been huge.
I am pleased and impressed with the concept of encouraging and rewarding people according to their willingness to put effort into maintaining good health. Poor diet is prevalent and considered acceptable and it seems so especially at church functions where sweets and coffee are encouraged.
Even though I have always followed a healthy lifestyle I was able to improve my numbers by encouragement and guidance from health consultant, Imelda. She researched my specific challenges and gave me tips that helped reduce some of my numbers.
