Every day we work with several patients who are working toward a healthy lifestyle through our FirstLine Therapy Program (FLT).  This program allows us to help each specific patient overcome health obstacles and enjoy optimum health.  But, getting there and staying there is not always easy.  It is our goal to coach and encourage patients as they work on gaining healthy lifestyle habits.  
If you have worked with us on making healthy lifestyle changes or are considering making some changes, consider the changes this way.
First, it is not a race. Treat it like trying to learn to play a new instrument. At times fun, at times frustrating. Mastering an instrument, like mastering your health takes practice. In fact, lifelong practice and then some become good at it, in fact, real good and others improve and stay average. 

It takes consistent behavioral changes daily.  Think before proceeding with any food choice. Think less of eating and more on other important daily health goals. After all, it's just food!
