My name is Donna and I have known Vickie for many years. We worked together for 10 years. I have enjoyed many lunches out with Vickie. Last year Vickie started having adverse reactions to foods that she normally ate on a regular basis. I know there were a couple trips to the ER due to these reactions. There was no apparent problems to be found other than food issues. Vickie began a major change in her eating. I witnessed the most dramatic change of habits I have ever seen in an individual. I will have to admit it was alarming as she was losing weight rapidly. When we ate out Vickie would bring her own food that she had prepared at home and usually only meat and vegetables along with the ever present water bottle. After a period of time I began to realize Vickie was feeling better and although much smaller…….looked good. Vickie was an example to all who knew her as far as her ability to stick with her plan and encourage others along the way. I would recommend Vickie as a coach for others any day of the week.
