My health consultant was professional, knowledgeable and was a joy to work with. She always spent and adequate amount of time with me and always made and kept scheduled appointments. She always encouraged me with prayer and she was an absolute blessing to work with!
I would like to say that Julie, my health consultant, was so encouraging and uplifting even when I didn't do as well. Over the six month period I lost 15 lbs. but had wanted to lose more like 45. I read the Eat to Live book and went through the other educational materials that were sent and am making changes towards those recommendations. I drink more water and try to exercise more now. I plan to get the extra weight off and will not give up!! I just want to say that Julie prayed with me and was so precious in how she was always edifying on the phone. I think the program is very beneficial and encourage others to try also. The book Eat to Live, by Dr. Joel Fuhrman, was very interesting and informing about how we should be eating. I have made some positive changes in my life.
My health consultant worked with my preferences well and reasonably while making good suggestions that worked! Our entire family has benefited health wise through the Restore Program. Thank you very much for encouraging me to send in my application- I waited a year because of being afraid of being rejected and suffered unnecessary stress. I wish I had done it sooner. I'm so glad that I was accepted into the Restore program. My husband and I considered this an answer to years of prayer for help with my weight and general health, which has improved along with my weight loss. He enthusiastically joined me in the changes and is enjoying his own weight loss, too. We have each lost over 15 pounds in 5 months. The Lord bless the MediShare team.
My health consultant, Julie, was always a joy to talk to and I looked forward to her phone calls. She spent an adequate amount of time with me and always kept scheduled appointments. I felt as though I had my own personal cheerleader!
I joined Health Initiatives because I needed to reverse osteoporosis. The medication Fosomax and Actenol made my bones and joints very painful. I will continue to walk, eat 5 servings of fruit and 3 servings of vegetables daily. I did not check the status of my bone density because I was on the program only 6 months, I am trusting God that this will make my bones strong.
I also feel so much better. I eat very little meat and drink Silk soy milk instead of regular cow's milk. I eat whole grain cereals and bread. I also have a handful of walnuts in my cereal every morning.
I can walk 2 miles very easily and when I went to Niagara Falls in May, I walked all day and never felt tired (this included carrying my 1 year old grandson part of the time).
The allergies I have been bothered with are considerably less bothersome. I am also thankful to Angela for her help.
Hope you're having a wonderful afternoon. I wanted to write to inform you of a call I just received. A father of a member (Pastor Hansard) called me a few minutes ago and was testifying about another member's passion for CCM and the HI Dept. His friends (Angela Brock and family) have been working with Ron Welsh and have been bragging to all their friends and church members about how wonderful and kind Ron has been to them. He said that they were ecstatic about all the weight that their son had lost and couldn't be happier about the Christian Care Ministry and the change the HI Dept has made in their lives. Great Job! You guys rock!
It was a blessing to have Ron as my health consultant these past six months. At first, I was hesitant to begin this program because I did not like the idea of being monitored regularly by someone else. I was also worried about the language barrier. But I have appreciated his patience in trying to understand what I was saying and helping me to achieve my goals. Without his help, I never would have accomplished this task. He encouraged me in a way that I did not feel pressured throughout the program. I believe that he has the gift of encouragement and communication with people. May God bless him and his continued ministry and his family.
I am in a better place healthwise as a result of working with my Health Education Consultant. I enjoyed working and praying with Matt White, my personal consultant!
