I have attended the center for well being before. I've attended quite a few classes over the years. The weight loss class, the diabetic class as examples. Recently I had just started to attend the center for well being, seeing Trina the nutritionist, right before covid 19 broke out. I was really struggling with my weight, not only was I overweight to begin with but I had also gained another 20 pounds after my husband had died. I was so discouraged. I had stopped believing that I could ever really change. Trina was right there for me, partnering up with me. Never did she shame me or admonish me, but always encouraging, even when I would screw up on my food. She has been a wonderful support! Other places would have charged me hundreds upon hundreds of dollars for the quality of support I receive from Trina, even with the Corona outbreak she consistently stays in touch with me , always encouraging, always supporting. I have lost almost 20lbs, and while I still have more to go, for the first time I have hope. It is not just a diet, it's about so much more. It's about food, and what it means to me. How I use it to cope. What are my food triggers? It's about learning different skills like mindful eating, taking the time to focus on what I'm eating and not watching the t.v . Learning am I eating out of hunger, or out of emotion? What does it mean to actually feel full or hungry? Can I tell myself no, I'm not hungry now, I can wait to eat, without feeling deprived, Can I tell myself for now I am satisfied? All this and more, Trina helps me explore, and she he!ps me better understand my relationship with food with my body mind and spirit! Trina truly listens and her feedback is so very valuable! I would highly recommend the center and especially Trina, for all her time and energy and commitment.
Thank-You! All!!!!
