Healthy Habits Pay Off for Jamie<br />

Jamie moved in with provider Masambe Tate<br />

in 2018. At <strong>the</strong> first appointment with his<br />

Nutriti<strong>on</strong>ist, she let <strong>the</strong> two know that it was<br />

important for Jamie’s health that he lose weight.<br />

Masambe didn’t want him to do it al<strong>on</strong>e, so<br />

toge<strong>the</strong>r <strong>the</strong> two followed <strong>the</strong> instructi<strong>on</strong>s<br />

<strong>the</strong> Nutriti<strong>on</strong>ist provided. They began to eat<br />

healthier and drank plenty of water. They<br />

also began walking twice a week for about<br />

30 minutes each time. Masambe notes that<br />

Jamie really stuck to <strong>the</strong> directi<strong>on</strong>s given by<br />

<strong>the</strong> Nutriti<strong>on</strong>ist to pursue this goal.<br />

Three years later, you can see at right <strong>the</strong> results!<br />

In December of 2021, Jamie hit his goal weight,<br />

having lost 60 pounds! Masambe says, “I’m<br />

extremely proud of him!”<br />

Well d<strong>on</strong>e Jamie! You’re looking great and we<br />

hope you are feeling even better!<br />
