Carrie - 52 breast cancer survivor

“I thought I knew how to eat healthy and exercise, but no matter how hard I tried after cancer, my body didn’t change. I learned so much during the shift program, especially about how cancer impacted my weight. Most importantly, I was able to make small, simple changes that were easy and things I could keep doing every day! I feel so much stronger and notice how much smaller my belly is!”
