4 Eric Friedman was already walking and watching his diet. But Eric, 62, felt like he wasn t making any real progress. His weight was continuing to creep upward, and even worse, he was classified pre-diabetic. What I was doing wasn t really working, said Eric, who s been a Kaiser Permanente member since I didn t have a good plan, and I wasn t getting any significant results. In early March, however, he got an about a Kaiser Permanente class on diabetes prevention at Crescent Center in Tucker, and he took the plunge. I was ready to make the necessary changes, he said. I was ready to have some success. His instructor, Tammie Hopkins-Leady, agreed. With Eric, once he had the tools and then started using the tools that made all the difference, she said. Typically, progress doesn t happen when people get the tools; it s when they start applying them. Eric started tracking his food and measuring his activity with a Fitbit a sophisticated pedometer, that allowed him to not only note how long he was walking, but the intensity. FEATRE STORY SMALL CHANGES LEAD TO BIG RESLTS A MEMBER S DEDICATION TO A HEALTHIER LIFESTYLE DRAMATICALLY LOWERS HIS RISK FOR DIABETES. I always tried to walk about six days a week, he said. And that hasn t really changed, but what I found is that I needed to walk faster, walk a little harder and put in more exertion. The difference was illuminating. Now, he walks for about two miles for 40 to 45 minutes, with a daily Fitbit goal of 11,000 steps. Improving his knowledge of diet also made a tremendous difference. The class specifically requires that students track and budget their fat grams. Too often, Tammie says, class members greatly underestimate how much they are actually eating.

5 > FEATRE STORY I think once Eric saw how many fat grams were in the foods he was eating, it changed how he thought about his diet, she said. Eric agreed. I ve never been that much into fast food, he said. But he recently attended a wedding and decided to stop by a fast food chain while traveling. I could not get over the number of fat grams in a quarter pounder with cheese. I really believe that awareness is two-thirds of my success. That success is pretty impressive. Since he s been in the class, Eric has dropped almost 25 pounds, and his glucose level is way down. In fact, it s so far down now that his A1c level is in the normal range. And his progress continues as he stays a regular participant in the class. A huge motivator of his success has been the bond between the students in the class. Truly there was something special about this class, he said. We re a really good group with a lot of interaction. It s fun and it s motivating. Tammie, his instructor, agrees. This group has remained stable with about 15 people, she said. They have truly formed a supportive community. There s an attitude of, Well, if they can do this, I can do it too. That s ideal for progress. Eric says there are still challenges weekend eating and road eating when he and his wife travel. I do worry about slipping backward, he said. But I ve also learned it s important to cheat a little bit, too. He points out, for example, that pizza used to be a regular part of his life but now it s a treat, not a weekly indulgence. And he also acknowledged that Mondays tend to be his heaviest day, but now he knows how to balance that by getting serious about his lifestyle the rest of the week. The payoff is worth it, he said. And it s harder to keep on a bad track when you really have this newfound awareness. TOP 3 TIPS FOR FELLOW MEMBERS ERIC FRIEDMAN 1. Eat a well-rounded breakfast. se those calories to fuel your day instead of loading them in at the end of the day. 2. Track your food and exercise progress. Set a bar of achievement for walking. 3. Consider making your exercise routine more robust if you re not making any progress and consider a class so you get motivation from others with similar goals. TOP 3 TIPS FOR MEMBERS TAMMIE HOPKINS-LEADY 1. Come to a class with an open mind and an eagerness to learn. 2. Take little steps of change don t try to make big leaps all at once. 3. Write everything down so you can see exactly what your healthy lifestyle looks like and how you have made positive changes over time. *For questions or to register, all non members are asked to call For the most up-to-date listing of classes, visit kp.org/classes. kp.org/healthyliving 3
