"I was most fortunate to meet and receive professional guidance from Phyllis Reid-Jarvis, a registered dietitian during the winter of 2008. I was enrolled in the cardiac rehabilitation program at the Re-Fit Centre in Winnipeg following angioplasty and the insertion of a stent for a blockage in one of my arteries. Part of that program involved meeting with and lectures by a registered dietitian. I consider myself lucky to have had Phyllis Reid-Jarvis assigned to my group. Under the guidance of Phyllis and others involved in this program, I lost in excess of 20 pounds and my cholesterol and high blood pressure are now under control and normal. I feel the most effective part of that program that allowed me to lose this weight and therefore achieve this normality was the wise, patient and effective counselling received from Phyllis with regard to my daily eating habits. Thanks Phyllis for the great advice you have given me."
