Here's a treat from Karen McCarty! You may have seen Kerrie's testimonial video on the H3 website, but today she'd like to update you on some of the progress she's made since visiting H3 in 2011. Thanks for sharing, Kerrie. We're so proud of you!Hello!
After my three-week stay at Hilton Head Health (H3) in 2011, I knew I would visit again and this year I returned for the last two weeks in June. I saw so many familiar friends that I met from last year, it turned into a great reunion!
I’m thrilled with the success I’ve experienced from my visits to H3, which has made it easier to stay motivated and on track with my meal and exercise plans. To date, I’ve lost 12% of my weight and my glucose levels remain in the Normal range. By adopting H3 healthy lifestyle changes, I’ve learned to manage my diabetes without taking medication. I’ve seen a significant improvement this year compared to 2011.
But a vacation at H3 is more than a return to health. It’s a return to our childhood! Where else do you find 20 adults on “noodles” in the pool, belting out oldies as we move and groove? Or taking a bike ride, playing golf, or kayaking? And don’t even get me started on Zumba in the Pool or Wii Dance!
The food and cooking classes are fabulous and the new H3 Healthy Kitchen is beautiful, with a large display screen so we can see everything the Chefs are preparing (my favorites are Sautéed Chicken Breasts with Peach-Chili Sauce and Eggplant Caponata).
They are constantly updating the program with new exercise classes and seminars. “Creating a Wellness Vision” and “Mastering Motivation” are two of my new favorites. The staff at H3 are brilliant at what they do, and they give us the tools to take home with us to ensure our success.
All I can say is, This place rocks.
