Testimonial

"When I first started my work with Dr. Frates I was obese and amidst a diabetes scare. It served as a major wake up call. I couldn’t believe how my health had spiraled out of control and that my habits did not support my vision of myself. She worked with me week by week through many challenges, and obstacles. She always held me in the highest regard, and believed in me at times more than I believed in myself.   


Over the past 7 months I have had a dramatic change in my personal habits through my work with Dr. Frates. Given my busy schedule, I never thought it would be possible to become a regular exerciser but now I can say that I make it to the gym faithfully 4 days per week. Her energy and enthusiasm for her work helped me change my attitude. Soon over time, I realized that change was possible even in the most difficult situations.


 Using the coach approach we have tackled many hurdles in order to realize my dreams of being fit and healthy. My palate has changed dramatically, in that I no longer enjoy any of those unhealthy foods I used to eat on a regular basis. Now my diet consists of healthy foods that “fuel” me. As a result I have lost 25 pounds!! I am much more confident than I have ever been in my life. I feel good in my body, and my brain “fog” has disappeared. Now more than ever, I believe that it is all possible."
