Wellness Spotlight: Testimonial I started the [pre]diabetic class in June, when I started I weighed 228lbs, and I was told I was pre-diabetic, with an A1c of 6.5. Today I am happy to say I weigh 198lbs. My last A1c # was 6.2. It dropped three points. Not only my numbers went down but I have not been under 200 since my son was born, that was in 1993. All this thanks to the [pre]diabetic class, and to Felicia Richardson who motivated us and made us understand about reading labels, counting fats and calories, I could not believe that when I ate a bowl of cereal, I was actually eating for three day worth, when I started measuring wow! Could not believe my eyes. Well I know better now I live with a measuring cup at hand. I measure, I weigh, I count. So I just wanted to let you know that I am very happy, and grateful to all of you, you all have changed my life, I feel good and I look better too. I have more energy, I am more active, so thank you again from the bottom of my heart. ~Eva Calcagno, Clinic Assistant, Calusa Elementary School
