Amanda Before and After Images.

Meet Connie Fraser, a 67-year-old banana researcher and consultant who has embarked on an inspiring weight loss journey. Originally from Beaufort-West in the Karoo, Connie now resides in Hazyview, Mpumalanga. Her journey is a testament to perseverance, dedication, and the effectiveness of the Slender Wonder program.

Connie’s battle with her weight has been a long and constant struggle, influenced by various life events including pregnancies, stress, and lifestyle choices. Having tried numerous weight loss methods throughout her life, she often found herself disheartened by the lack of lasting results. However, the opportunity to participate in the Slender Wonder program reignited her hope.

Connie had previously experienced the Slender Wonder program but hadn’t completed it. This time, the Nuwe Jy competition provided the push she needed to give it another go. “It felt surprisingly easier than I thought,” she shares, crediting the motivation and support from Dr. Anmarie and her team. Despite initial challenges, Connie quickly discovered the benefits of the program, which included feeling energized and satisfied without constant hunger.

One of the toughest aspects for Connie was adjusting to the new eating plan, particularly avoiding fat and her beloved red wine. However, the motivation she received from the program helped her stay committed, and she began to see remarkable results. Over 12 weeks, Connie lost an impressive 12.3 kg, and in total, she shed 16 kg from April to October.
Since starting her journey, Connie has noticed significant improvements in her physical health. “I have so much more energy and feel much younger!” she exclaims. Emotionally, she has gained self-confidence and a positive outlook on life, feeling less depressed and more empowered.

Connie believes that anyone looking to lose weight under medical supervision should consider the Slender Wonder program. “It’s a journey best undertaken with a supportive team,” she advises. She encourages others to stay motivated by seeking inspiration from the success stories of others in the program.

Connie’s transformation isn’t just about weight loss; it’s about adopting a healthier lifestyle. She now plans and prepares her meals, incorporates walking into her daily routine, and listens to motivational talks. Her personal motto, “You are NEVER too old to change your lifestyle—take one day at a time and make small changes,” embodies her commitment to long-term health.
As Connie continues her journey, she aims to maintain her weight and health. Should she stray off track, she plans to utilize the Go Moderate plan to help her regain focus.

Connie Fraser’s story is a powerful reminder that it’s never too late to make positive changes in life. Through determination, support, and a commitment to a healthier lifestyle, she is truly thriving with Slender Wonder.
