changes
Healthy changes become habits after 8 years
Saphronia Coochise joined
the Diabetes Prevention Pro
gram for eight years.
Saphronia is the acting fis
cal officer at Warm Springs
Housing. She first joined.
Diabetes Prevention to learn
about making healthier food
choices for herself and her
children. She wanted to make,
sure she was giving her kids
a healthy start.
Saphronia learned about
making small changes to the
foods that she already en
joyed. For instance, she
changed a few ingredients in
her favorite dip and still had
a good tasting food'with low
ered, fat and calories.
She also learned about
healthier options like veggies
instead of chips for snacks.
It took some time to get
used to eating different. Her
advice is to just keep trying
new things.
Saphronia w orked on
changes in her activity level.
She began with brief exercise
and found activities she liked.
Now she is committed. “To
day it’s Eke'I have to work
out,” Saphronia says.
Over time, and with smaU
p
reach. This approach kept
her motivated,
Saphronia stiE works with
her coach every other week,
because she beEeves this is an
important part of staying on
track.
There are many other pro
gram elements that help her,
such as keeping a food log,
as weE as an exercise journal.
“That was huge,” she says.

Francis. This has resulted in
more muscle tone.
Edmund is the Community
WeUness Team Coordinator.
'He coEaborates with the Dia

often.
T hough he no longer
works for the Diabetes Pre
vention Program directly,
Edmund continues to coach
program participants and
helps all community members
to be more active with a wide
variety.of exercise programs
and group classes.
Edmund’s pers.onal train
ing was helpful and much ap
preciated by Saphronia, espe-
daUy after her back surgery.
After the surgery last year
tit was like starting from
scratch again. But she be
Eeves that she is even stron
ger now than before her sur
gery.
In closing,.when asked
what message she would give
to the community regarding
the prevention of diabetes,
she said, ‘‘Remember the
change is for you. You have
to Eve with your body the
rest of your Efe!”
