Because of YOU, and funds you give to the Annual Campaign, the Y can offer programs like Blood Pressure Monitoring at no cost to members like Cindy. Cindy needed to lose weight because her cholesterol and blood pressure were high and she thought she might require knee surgery. Cindy had never liked to exercise and was intimidated by the machines. With the help of Y staff, though, she began to enjoy exercise. Cindy has lost 50 pounds by coming to the Y frequently, participating in a variety of classes, personal training, Blood Pressure Monitoring, and other activities. She says she feels 20 years younger, and not only is her cholesterol in normal range, her blood pressure medication has been reduced and she will not need that knee surgery. Cindy is grateful for the Y team supports her along the way.
