John and Mary
“John and his wife Mary joined the Buy. Eat. Live Healthy Series, after seeing the Buy. Eat. Live Healthy brochure at the local food bank. Mary wanted to join the program as she had some health concerns and wanted to develop a healthier lifestyle and learn some new recipes they could apply to their everyday lives. They were also looking for suggestions for recipes from some of the food items they found at the local food bank, such as canned meat and lentils. Throughout the program the couple really enjoyed the Spend Smart. Eat Smart. recipes: Spicy Tuna Salad, Energy Bites, and Cowboy Caviar. They also mentioned learning to read a food label was very helpful and increased their awareness of nutrients they should lower. At the end of the program John and Mary were excited to share they both had lost weight by choosing healthier food options and were able to cut their sodium intake in half. They enjoyed the program and were looking forward to continuing their healthy living journey.“
