Jeanine Stickney with Associated Foods


Jeanine Stickney, with AFS, has had great success since working with The Apple Program®. Within the course of one year, Jeanine has dropped her cholesterol by over 70 points! She attributes her success to the support she received from her Apple Health Coach® and to changing her health behaviors.

Jeanine really likes the coaching and the fact that she can call and speak with her coach whenever she has a question. “I like the accountability and that someone cares about my health. My coach is always honest with me and tells it to me straight.” Knowing that her coach would ask her if she exercised or drank her water made her try harder. She also feels that the online goal tracker is a great tool that has been easy to use and is another form of motivation to continue moving forward and making progress.

Jeanine made simple changes that produced big results. In her nutrition, Jeanine started drinking more water and eating more salads. She brought fruit to snack on during the day so she wouldn’t be tempted by unhealthy snacks. At home Jeanine pulled out her Nordic Track and set it up in front of her computer. “Now, for every minute I spend on the Nordic track, I allow myself a minute to be on the computer, whether it's checking e-mail, e-bay, or Facebook.” Building up her walking habit she now spends a lot of time walking with her daughter and her grandbaby.

“The reason I like The Apple Program is because it helped me be accountable to myself through tracking my goals on the website and having an Apple Health Coach, who actually cared about my personal health.”
