A Change
of Heart
“I attended the CHIP classes, made changes
in my eating and adjusted my lifestyle. I feel
better and I’m continuing to see results. I feel
that if I can follow CHIP, my patients can
too. It’s one thing to give out information and
expect people to make changes, but with CHIP,
people share what they’ve done and we all
understand each other’s struggles.”
Health is not everything,
but without it, everything is
nothing.
