Matt Caldwell, with Tooele County, has had great success working with The Apple Program® and his Apple Health Coach®. Through good nutrition and exercise, Matt was able to lose over 30 pounds!
In addition to the physical changes of weight loss and body fat loss, Matt’s overall cholesterol dropped by 80 points. Matt believes one of the main contributors to his biometric changes is his healthy exercise habit. On average, Matt exercises five to six times per week, but he focuses on quality not quantity. Matt said, “I pushed myself and really made the workout count.” When Matt started the program his cardio goal was to work out four to five times per week for at least 30 minutes. Gradually, he worked himself up to five to six times per week for at least an hour.
In addition to exercise, nutrition played a huge role in Matt’s success. He said that he started eating more produce and less red meat and not as much white processed flour. He said that when he works ten hours per day it helps him to bring healthy pre-prepared snacks. When other unhealthy foods were available they became less of a temptation because he had food on hand. Matt was also able to lower his cholesterol so much because he increased the salmon and almonds he eats. Matt likes his exercise and nutrition plan and he said that he will keep doing what he is doing.
“The Apple Program played a really big role in my success, because the assessment helped me know where I was at. Before coming to the assessment I didn’t really know where I stood with my biometrics. Now that I know, I do better. Ignorance is not bliss: Know your cholesterol and blood pressure. For questions and advice the coach was helpful.”
