Wellness Champion
Congratulations Sally Love!

Sally Love, UAA
Administrative Assistant PACE/COE UAA

Two years ago I was considered morbidly obese.
I struggled with weight my entire adult life, and for much of my childhood. After deciding that in order to win the battle for my health and my life, I decided to have bariatric surgery.

Now I am 125 pounds lighter, riding my bike to work, taking the Pilate's classes on campus and staying active. I no longer need medication for high blood pressure, high cholesterol, depression, or anything else. Heidi Beer, a WIN for Alaska, Inc. Wellness Consultant, and the Health In Action program has kept me motivated and encouraged me to continue working toward my goal of good health.

I still have a few more pounds to take off, but I am encouraged to keep whittling away at it and I no longer feel that there's no use in trying. WIN for Alaska, Inc.... Thank you for your support.
