These
are a few of the many comments survivors have made in
surveys about Healthy and Fit After Cancer® wellness
coaching:
"Before I started being coached...I was just sitting around
like a bump on a log not knowing what to do now that I was
finished with my cancer treatments. I had gained 25 pounds
during my treatments. The pounds didn't seem to want to
come off. I was a little mystified on what action to take
first. Pam's coaching gave me that "boost" I needed to get
started with exercise, healthier eating and positive
thinking."
"Pam was a superb coach on my road to better health! She
kept me focused and helped me by asking the right questions
about what I thought about my goals each week."
"...Setting realistic goals on getting the right kind and
right amount of exercise for my needs was wonderful."
"I felt more motivated with having set realistic goals with
the gentle prodding of someone who could give me sound
advice."
"Pam's advice was of the highest caliber. I never expected
to be so lucky to have the opportunity to have a mentor
guide me on the road back to wellness."
"I didn't think I was going
to get this much out of it! It got me going and off the
sofa!"
“My
mindset has changed. I am thinking about what is good for
me instead of being stuck in bad habits.”
“It’s setting me up for success.”
“It’s wonderful to get a boost… the
things I’ve learned will stay with me forever.”
“I liked… setting goals; helping me be
realistic so I could be successful; having a personal
coach; getting positive feedback; focusing on what I did
do.”
“It takes the fear away when you have a partner (am I
doing this right?).”
“I loved learning about pedometers; calorie concept
of 100 calories a day being 10 lbs. in a year; strength
training articles”
“Keeping my vision in front of me was the
best.”
“Gave me the focus and support to stop
smoking.”
"She had first hand experience with breast cancer so I knew
she understood what I have been through and then some..."
"Very helpful. I liked the online component when she sent
me articles about subject matter that I was interested in
ie proper exercise techniques."
