As I get older, I have begun to realize it is not as easy to take off those extra pounds that have now turned into 50 extra pounds. My poor diet techniques coupled with starving myself no longer have the immediate impact I desire. My body is saying "No" and my mind has grown weary of losing the same weight over and over again. Not to mention, the wear and tear on my heart, my rising cholesterol, and my joints calling out for mercy. I found myself humbled and in dire need of nutritional coaching for myself and for the well being of my family.
I discovered Kris Bonham, at ACAC, who has changed my life over the past six months. Kris has gently taught me (the person who knows everything) how to properly feed my mind and body. We have talked about all aspects of nutrition and how eating the right foods helps to overcome binges and curb the emotional monster within me. We have talked about emotional eating and how to change the behaviors ingrained in me since childhood. I have learned to recognize what triggers me to eat and how to enjoy food guilt-free.
I am still a work in progress. Kris has given me the skills for a healthy life. I am deeply grateful for what she has done for me.

Achieving a healthy lifestyle requires no magic. Simply following the professional advice of the ACAC Nutrition Coach, Kris, while also maintaining an exercise regimen, is all that it took for me to significantly change how, what, when, and most importantly, why I eat. The counsel, goal-setting, and menu suggestions she provided was a prescription for a diet that I actually enjoyed!
