Carolyn’s Testimony

Published on 12/01/09

My struggle turned into life-threatening when I turned 45 and started some of the symptoms of menopause.

BEFORE
My name is Carolyn and I’ve been a Women’s Health Care Nurse Practitioner for 25 years. In all that time and for most of my life I’ve struggled with weight. I tried a particularly popular diet 8 times; I did Atkins, and numerous workshops, but never got the results I was looking for. No matter what I tried, the weight would not come off. The most concerning factors was my cholesterol and triglycerides. I have a strong family history of heart disease, hypertension and diabetes. The MD who was providing my care said,
AFTER
“Here, take this pill, because of your family history you will never change your lab results!” I knew my only shot was to lose the weight. But how?

Everything changed in 2009! I took on my life! The Healthy Edge™ has been the program that has supported me in releasing 30 pounds, lowering my triglycerides, raising my good cholesterol and lowering the bad. The biggest accomplishment of all is that because of my good health I don’t take “the pills” anymore! My health care provider is amazed that the only medicine I do take is a low-dose blood pressure pill and good quality nutritional supplements. My personal goal for the rest of my life is to run and play with my grandchildren, practice The Healthy Edge™, and never have to take “the pill” again!
