Annette Havenga, 52, from Cape Town, has experienced a transformative journey with the Slender Wonder program. Despite struggling with her weight for many years, Annette found a program that truly works for her. Here’s her story of how she took control of her health and regained her confidence.
“I have been unhappy with my body for a long time,” says Annette. Having tried numerous diets over the years with little success, she never managed to sustain a significant weight loss. “After turning 40, I blamed my age for my weight, not taking responsibility for my own actions,” she adds. An ankle injury in 2006 that forced her to stop running, comfort eating, and lazy meals after marriage only worsened her health.
Annette first learned about the Slender Wonder program from a fellow journalist. Inspired by her friend’s success, Annette thought, “Let me give it a try, I have nothing to lose except a few kilos.” What really struck Annette about the program was its sustainable approach, focusing on gradual change instead of quick fixes.
The program has been a revelation for Annette. “The detox days were tough at first, and I had withdrawal from coffee, but the results came quickly, and I started to feel better,” Annette shares. She credits the structured approach and the tremendous support she received from Slender Wonder for her success. “Prepping meals is so vital. I now have the tools I need to keep myself on track,” Annette says.
Annette has reached her goal weight of losing 21 kg, reaching a weight she had not seen in years. “The best part is that it’s not a quick fix but a sustainable lifestyle change,” Annette says. She has more energy, her skin is glowing, and her IBS is almost a thing of the past.
Beyond the physical changes, Annette has experienced significant improvements in her mental and emotional health. “Confidence! I can now walk into a room with my shoulders pulled back, head held high. I’m no longer ashamed of myself,” she says. Annette has reduced her depression medication by half and sleeps better, feels more energized, and lives her life to the fullest.
While Annette’s physical transformation has been impressive, her goals are to maintain this healthy lifestyle. “I know I can gain weight easily, but I’m committed to making wise decisions going forward. I’ve come too far to let it go now,” she states. Her new lifestyle includes daily yoga, walking with her dog, and maintaining her hydration with water and rooibos tea.
For anyone struggling with their weight, Annette has this advice: “You just have to show up every day. The hard work has been done by the experts. You just need to follow the plan.”
“Empowerment” is the one-word Annette uses to describe her new self. She’s excited to shop for clothes, feel good in her body, and live a healthier, happier life.
Annette’s story is a powerful reminder that with the right tools, support, and mindset, anyone can transform their health and confidence. “Thank you, Slender Wonder, for changing my life,” Annette concludes.
