“The plan is easy to follow. Now I’m sleeping better, my knees don’t hurt like they used to, my skin is softer and hair is shinier.”
Like most adults, Kathryn spends her weeks working full-time in a high-stress environment. She is the Director of Events at the Boys and Girls Club of Mid Central Coast in Orcutt, California. While most of her work is sedentary, at the events she plans she spends long hours on her feet.
Both of these environments require a lot of mental and physical energy to get through the day. Prior to joining Betr Health, Kathryn struggled with her weight and was at high risk for type 2 diabetes. “I’ve been overweight most of my adult life, I have tried everything,” she says.
She sarcastically calls herself a “professional dieter” who has tried many programs before and successfully lost weight but would find herself putting it back on afterward. Kathryn wanted to find a program that would help her not only lose weight but maintain it. “At this time in my life I thought – I’m going to work with some professionals and see if I can find something that will help me take the weight off and keep it off” she explains.
So, when Blue Shield of California emailed her about a Diabetes Prevention Program she jumped right on it and signed up for Betr Health for NO additional cost. Kathryn lost 26 pounds in three months through the Betr Health program, but this is just one of the many outcomes that she has seen since starting the protocol. She adds that “I’m sleeping better, my knees don’t hurt like they used to, my skin is softer and hair shinier.”
Her stress levels and anxiety have been almost completely eliminated. This has been life-changing for Kathryn, especially given her demanding work-life. What she likes most about the program is how easy and flexible it is.
“You don’t have to commit to going to a gym every day…and the plan has been easy to follow,” she says. For somebody who works full time, finding a program that is adaptable to her lifestyle was essential. While Kathryn has made a lot of progress, she still has the goal of losing 50 more pounds.
“I’m excited because I feel like I have the tools to keep going and the motivation to do it!” She plans to continue this lifestyle for the rest of her life.
