Betry Langijota Testimony

Betry & his Wife enjoy breakfast at the Wellness Center

I joined the Wellness Program because the Wellness Center did a free health screening where I was eating and found my blood sugar to be over 300. The next morning I came into the Center and signed up for the program. Before I entered this program I’d eat whenever I felt like it and whatever I wanted and I was going blind.

Betry Exercising at the Center

My body fat was high and going to the john was a labor because my diet did not have enough fiber in it. My clothes were getting smaller because I was getting bigger, soon they did not fit at all. I started to have abscess or boils one after the other and wounds were hard to heal. I was in serious trouble. After 6 weeks in the program I can wear my clothes again! I am stronger and my vision has improved. Now my skin is healthy and boil free. I used to have numbness in my hands and feet, not any more! Now I come and exercise every day and really enjoy it. Now my wife and I are enjoying a healthy life together!

Selina John Testimony

Selina loves coming to the cooking schools at the Center

I joined the program at the Wellness Center in February 2011. I began to exercise every day and learn the ways of taking and eating the food the program offers. I even got to volunteer and learn how to cook the foods that are served at the center which was a great experience. After being with the program for a while I realized a lot of changes that took place in my life. My blood sugar, which usually reached up to 350, was now in the 150's and my blood pressure was down too. I know I have come to the right place because the people I have met are all kind and easy to talk to.

I know now that if I didn't join this Wellness group my blood sugar and high blood pressure would have stayed abnormal and unhealthy. Now I have the tools I need to be health and diabetes free. I thank all the staff at the Wellness Center for having the patience with me and trying all your best to see that you are always available when I need help.

Caroline Lakabung Testimony

 When I first came to the program at the Wellness Center my sugar was very high and I couldn't read a book. I felt sleepy all the time and my eyes would be watery all the time. At home somebody had to help me by squeezing my hands and feet to keep them from going numb, especially at night.  Now after six weeks of the program I feel so much better. Not just like before but I feel like I'm back to normal now. My blood sugar is down and I can move around better than before. I thank God for the people in this program.
