Wellbeing Gem Testimonials


Gemma came to our Hotel (The Conrad Dublin) as part of an activity for our Team Member Appreciation Week.

Gemma had a great ability to explain complex information easily and in a way that we could all understand and apply easily.

General feedback within our group was unanimous and we feel we can apply certain principles to our relationship with food and nutrition. Her presentation was very visual and educational, which really helped break the information down into simple terms. Gemma brought her ‘Metabolic Weighing Scales’ which proved to be very interesting and informative for each person who attended the talk.

We will certainly ask Gemma to visit again in the future and can’t recommend her highly enough!”

Director of Human Resources, Conrad Dublin

I am delighted to relate that my weight loss of 4 stone (25KGs), which occured from mid January until the end of May 2022 was, to a great extent, due to the professional service offered by my Metabolic Balance Plan consultant, Gemma O’Connell.

Throughout my weight loss journey,  Gemma was extremly hepful with concrete and effective advice and guidance. Her communictations with me were always informative, clear and punctual. On the other hand, my communications with her were always handled punctually and her answers were always well researched.

For all the above reasons, I would, therefore, highy recommend to anyone wanting to successfully lose weight, to work in partnership with Gemma O’Connell, to realize their goal in a professional, safe, and timely manner.

Gemma, Just a quick note to let you know how I’m getting on. I have lost around 18kg since I did the course with you last Jan/Feb and that’s all thanks to you.  I’m feeling great.  I never stop praising you and the Zest4life programme. Thanks again.

I feel like a new person. I have now got my energy back and feel great. The best bit is I am finally pregnant again. Thank you so much for your help!
Frances – Nutritional Therapy Client

 I made a choice not to go to a weight loss class. I made a deliberate decision to take the holistic approach in choosing Zest4life. My mood and sleep have improved considerably. I have eliminated wheat from my diet and I feel much better for it. I have lost nearly a stone and will continue to maintain the new habits created for overall improved wellbeing”.
