Dawn's success story with ColonWell

COLONWELL PROJECT PARTICIPANT AUŠRA: "IT'S NOT LOSING WEIGHT, BUT FEELING GOOD IS MY GREATEST ACHIEVEMENT"

You lost a lot of weight in a short time, but after a few months it came back? 45-year-old Aušra also couldn't find a way to get rid of unwanted kilograms not for one summer, but for the long term. The woman's life changed when she dared to participate in the ColonWell wellness project in Jonava. In it, Aušra lost weight without following a diet, but by developing healthy lifestyle habits that she liked. After the project, the woman is happy not only with smaller volumes and the disappearance of the hump, but also with a significantly improved well-being.

Almost every Lithuanian has heard of the ColonWell product, which causes a feeling of satiety. Tell us how your acquaintance with this product began?

"I've heard about ColonWell many times, but I've never really looked into it. The turning point came when a friend participated in a challenge project in Druskininkai and shared her results. I've always believed that the best advertising is word of mouth, because it's the real experience of those around you."

What goals led you to decide to test yourself in the ColonWell wellness challenge project in Jonava?

"At the beginning of this year, I set a goal to pay more attention to myself and start eating healthier. It was important to me that this was a long-term goal, not a challenge for a few weeks. So, from the new year, I gave up sugar and flour products, and at the end of January I entered the health challenge project in Jonava. In the project, I aimed to lose weight not for one summer, but for the long term."

How have you tried to fight unwanted pounds in the past?

"Better ask me what I haven't tried. I once lost a lot of weight in a short time, but it came back very quickly. In this project, I wanted to find a new lifestyle that suited me, one that would ensure not only lower numbers on the scale, but also good well-being."

What were your first feelings when you started the project and started using ColonWell?

"First I felt very thirsty, and from the large amount of water I started going to the toilet very often. After a few days I felt a big burst of energy and good mood."

This time, the organizers of the ColonWell wellness challenge project encouraged you to test yourself by "adopting" even a few healthier lifestyle habits. Tell us how you managed to overcome these challenges?

"The first week I had to give up sugar and flour products, but I had already done that before. Later I tried intermittent fasting, where I had breakfast at 10 am, lunch at 2 pm, and dinner at 6 pm. I had never been able to stick to this regimen before, but with ColonWell it was not difficult because I felt full. Finally, I had to walk 10 thousand steps every day before breakfast. At first I thought it would be very difficult, but I felt great."

During the project lectures, participants receive a lot of information about healthier eating habits and how to develop them more easily. How has your daily eating routine changed?

"If I used to drink two glasses of water at most, now I drink 2 liters without any problems. While doing the challenges, a rather strict eating regimen developed, when I finally had neither time nor desire for snacks. It's hard to believe, but the dumplings, pizza, pasta or sweets that I used to love were completely eliminated from my diet, because I simply didn't want them anymore. I started liking eggs, various porridges and salads. When I drink coffee, I no longer snack on candy, but on hard cheese. The most important thing is that I don't follow a diet and don't torture myself, because I like all these eating changes and they allow me not only to lose weight, but also to feel better."

Which results achieved during the project are the most important to you?

"I lost 3.5 kilograms during the project, and although it doesn't seem like much, it's very noticeable visually. The weight fell off my waist and butt. My chubby cheeks also disappeared. I remember washing my face and I don't understand how it got so small. My clothes became much looser, and I started to need a belt for my jeans. In addition, my bloating problems decreased and my fatigue after eating disappeared, because I simply didn't overeat anymore. At the same time, I noticed that the skin on my entire body became less dry. Summing up all the changes, I can say that it wasn't the weight loss, but feeling good about myself that was my greatest achievement."

What will you do to ensure that your achievements last longer?

"When I started the project, I was looking for a healthier lifestyle plan, and that's exactly what I found here. I'm definitely not saying I'll never eat sweets again, but so far I feel much better doing this than I did before, when I ate anything and everything whenever I wanted."

Your results and clear vision for the future are truly impressive. How have those around you reacted to your changes?

"It's already the case that my changes are clearly visible to everyone around me, so if they ask me how I managed to lose weight and look better, I tell them about ColonWell and the project. Some have already purchased and are successfully using this product, but there are also those who, having bought ColonWell, keep it in their cupboard and expect results."

What would you wish for those who feel they have lost hope of ever losing weight for the long term?

"First, find the answer to why you need it, and then form a clear system. Start with small steps to avoid excessive stress on your body. If you lack motivation or knowledge about healthy lifestyle habits, be sure to try participating in the ColonWell challenge project."

Aušra's experience in the project proves that in order to lose weight for the long term, you need to find a healthier lifestyle routine that you like. When you are motivated to live healthier by feeling better, changes on the scales will come naturally.
