Alisha Breckenridge, with Provo City, has had great success working with her Apple Health Coach™. Alisha has been working with her personal health coach for over a year. Together they have come up with great goals and ideas that have helped Alisha to be successful. She worked with her coach to lose over 16 pounds before her pregnancy. Alisha is now in the post-pregnancy stage and is working hard to get back to her goal weight. Eight weeks after her baby was born Alisha had lost over 30 pounds. Alisha took advantage of her new lifestyle to prepare to run a 5k in October.
“My coach is more than a weight loss coach - she is a life coach.” Alisha appreciates that she can call her coach in her moment of weakness and that her coach gives her great suggestions. Alisha said, “I was craving cheesecake right after breakfast one morning and I called her when I needed her. She gave me the idea to give it to neighbors or freeze it for later. I call her a life coach because I had nothing done well with my goals and nothing was going well, so we planned out what we were going to do for the rest of the day. She helped me plan my day and week. She taught me about the three tens – basically what can I do in the next ten minutes, the next ten hours and the next ten days to improve my health. She really helps me re-group when I have a lot of stress. She gives me recipe ideas. Since I do love my sweets, she suggested using apple sauce instead of butter and wheat flour instead of white. Along with nutrition and exercise, she always encourages me to at least get some physical activity every day.”
Alisha has been successful because she has gradually made lifestyle changes. She said that one of her goals is to plan out her three meals a day and healthy snacks. Alisha always tries to go to the gym, but she also knows that as a new mom she needs to balance everything in her life and leave time to sleep and get rejuvenated. She said that she eats five to nine servings of fruits and vegetables daily.
“My coach taught me to become one with my cutting board. I have a veggie tray in my frig ready to go at all times with light or fat free ranch dressing or sometimes even peanut butter. Life is meant to be enjoyed and The Apple Program™ helps me do that.”
