Sometimes we're not just trying to solve for one thing when we decide on a new diet. Many women face a complex combination of issues especially as we age. And most diets are just trying to solve one without taking into account the others.
Conditions like menopause, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, and type 2 diabetes can make it feel like your body is not your friend. But even through what seems like chaos and confusion, there is a path forward. A way that works. A way to address all of these concerns with a holistic approach that fits into your life.
In this case study, I'm sharing what happened for Colleen when she joined the Whole GI Transformation program.
More than just managing diabetes
When Colleen came to Well + Easy, she had been struggling with type 2 diabetes for years, and it was getting harder to manage without giving up everything. On top of that, she was dealing with menopause symptoms—like hot flashes and stubborn weight gain around her midsection—as well as high blood pressure and high cholesterol. She felt like everything was piling up and there was no way to get it all under control.
I empathize. That's a lot.
"I came to the well and easy program because I needed a real solution for my health. My type 2 diabetes was becoming harder to manage, and the weight from menopause wasn’t become so so frustrating. Plus, my blood pressure and cholesterol numbers were going up. I felt like I had no control over my body. I didn't feel good, healthy, and hated looking at myself in the mirror. Jen cared and took a deep interest in what I needed."

What Colleen didn’t expect was how much her overall health would improve. Beyond managing her blood sugar, she started to feel more energized, less bloated, and finally saw progress with her cholesterol and blood pressure.
Addressing the whole picture: managing menopause, blood sugar, and more
Colleen’s story shows how important it is to address your health from every angle—not just focusing on one issue at a time. That's why my approach is integrative. In the Whole GI Transformation, we look at everything—from how menopause impacts your metabolism to how blood sugar fluctuations can worsen high blood pressure and cholesterol.
Colleen wasn’t just dealing with one health problem. She was battling multiple, interconnected issues that made her feel stuck.
She had hot flashes, her weight was creeping up, her blood sugar was spiking, and her blood pressure was rising.
What she needed wasn’t just another diet or medication—it was a plan that treated her body as a whole. And that’s exactly what the Whole GI Transformation gave her.
With personalized recipes and a focus on stabilizing blood sugar, Colleen learned how to fuel her body in a way that worked for her. The program helped her manage her menopause symptoms, stabilize her blood sugar, and even improve her cholesterol and blood pressure without feeling restricted or overwhelmed.
Why Whole GI Transformation works for complex health issues
At the heart of the Whole GI Transformation is the idea that it’s not just about weight loss or managing one condition. It’s about helping you feel better in every aspect of your health—whether you’re dealing with menopause, type 2 diabetes, or high blood pressure.
For Colleen, the program wasn’t about cutting out carbs or following a strict plan. It was about learning how to eat in a way that supported her body and addressed her unique combination of health challenges.
The Whole GI Protocol—a set of simple habits that fit into her daily life—made it easy to manage her symptoms while still enjoying her favorite foods (the recipes we developed for her EXACT needs).
"I didn’t expect the results to happen so quickly. Within weeks, I felt more energized, my blood sugar stabilized, and I noticed my blood pressure and cholesterol improving (since I take my BP every single day). The program gave me a sense of control over my body again. I didn't know that my tiredness was actually chronic... I kind of just got very used to things "being this way" and stopped looking into solutions."
