WITH one week completed, our two Operation Transformation Limerick volunteers, Mandy Hogan and Martin Costello, are already making great progress. After consultations with Caroline Danaher, Marese Shields and the team in Ultimate health, they were given a special detox diet and an appointment to meet fitness instructor Brian Kennedy in the gym. After just a week, they’ve both lost weight and they’re feeling
great.
Here’s how they got on…
Mandy..
I arrived at Ultimate Health to meet Caroline, Marese, Brian and the photographer from the Limerick Chronicle. Wasn’t to nervous. We had our photos done first.The girls then
weight me in and explained all about the detox diet that i was going to start with. Brian the personal trainer made an appointment with me to meet with him for a workout on the Friday morning. I found the first day or two really hard on the detox programme as I am not usually a healthy eater but after that it was fine and I felt I had more energy and I wasn’t hungry at all. I drank plenty of water which is another thing I hadn’t done before. Before I started the programme, if I wanted a drink it was always coke. I have followed the detox exactly the way Caroline and Marese advised and I have so much energy and there’s only one week down.Todaywas my first weigh in and I couldn’t believe it. I was down 7lbs which I think is FANTASTIC. Now I’m even more determined to keep going. I also had my training session with Brian in the gym on Friday which I
think was great. I enjoyed the gym although it wasn’t easy. Brian was there constantly encouraging me.That encouragement is what I needed because if Brian hadn’t been there
I probably would have lasted 20 minutes on my own. One week after starting the detox
diet Caroline in Ultimate Health gave me a colonic irrigation treatment. I was very iffy going in for this as I didn’t know what to expect. I arrived at the clinic and have a chat with Caroline and Marese. I felt at ease before even entering the treatment room.The first thing i noticed were the scented candles throughout which were so relaxing. Then
Caroline explained the treatment to me from start to finish. Carolinethen told me to relax and lo and behold she had started and I hadn’t felt a thing. I don’t know what I was getting worked up about. I was so relaxed. We were chatting away as if nothing were going on. It was only my first treatment and my tummy was so much softer than before.
Martin..
Approximately one week ago I went to The Ultimate Health Clinic feeling overweight, bloated and low in energy. After taking my details they suggested a six weeks course of diet and gym training. Week one consisted of a detoxification diet and one hour in the gym with a personal trainer which I duly followed.
After the first week without undue exertion or starvation I have gained
energy, lost that bloated feeling and also lost five pounds in weight. I am looking forward to week two which consists of colonic hydrotherapy, a diet of 20 per cent acid foods,
80 per cent alkaline foods and one hour in the gym.
I’ll report back next week.
