| Speaking of Women's Health Raleigh's Simple Pledges |
| At Speaking of Women’s Health, we know that large life changes, like the latest diets and a major exercise overhaul, don’t ultimately add up to results – you can’t change long-term habits overnight! The key is small changes – adding a new fruit or vegetable to your diet here, trying a new lipstick shade there – and ultimately, those small changes can, and will, make a big difference! |
Dee L. - Age 53 - Clayton, NC
My simple pledge is to help folks with tobacco addiction. I just finished an
awesome certification by American Lung Association that was offered to me as an
educational piece by my employer WakeMed. My pledge is to volunteer in my
community my time and my knowledge to help anyone, or any organization for
that matter, that wishes to tap my knowledge in this effort.

Claudia H. - Age 50 - Apex, NC
I'm so excited about my new look on life. The programs that were available for us,
helped me so very. I am diabetic and I take insulin and po meds. Being at your
meeting for us has opened my eyes to a whole new world. My best friend Margie
was also with me and with her encouragement and the new things I learned about
diet and exercise I hope to be a healthier person next year.

My simple pledge is to share more with my husband in order to create quality time
together as I have discovered that it greatly reduces stress. He also appreciates
the moments as well. I would like to also participate in more community based
initiatives that bring assistance to women and children. I am an active participant
in the JDRF fund-raising event, and the March of Dimes and the American Heart
Walk.

Nancy W. - Age 26 - Raleigh, NC
My simple pledge is to stay away from the candy, doughnuts, and other sweets that
are ALWAYS around my office. I've pledged to keep healthier snacks available for
myself (like FiberOne bars, yogurt, and raisins) so I won't be as tempted to reach for
the bad stuff!
