Happy Tuesday 🏆

Meet our lovely member, Stewart

🎉In his own words 🎉

I joined slimming world around two years ago, my main motivation was my health. I was the wrong side of 20 stones and I was feeling it, subsequently I was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes.

With the help of Slimming World and our very helpful consultant I am now 2.5 stone lighter which has reversed the diabetes and left me feeling so much healthier and much more energetic.

Due to circumstances beyond my control, at home, it is not proving to be the fastest of journeys but I am making steady progress, with a target in mind and I know that without the support of my SW group and consultant I would almost certainly be well above 20 Stone”

Well done Stewart, truly an inspiration.

Happy Thursday and first day of 2026 🎉

May I introduce my member Stephanie Colley, who has lost 4.5 stone.

In Steph’s on words.

“I had started Slimming World back in January 2019 and lost almost a stone before the covid lockdown. The club I attended never reopened and I put back on the weight and gained more.

It was a day when I went to my GP for a routine health check that I was adviced to start medication for level 1 hypertension. That day I decided I wouldn't start medication but I would make a promise to myself to lose weight to improve my health and wellbeing. Being a Nurse I felt that I was letting myself down, I had all the dietary advice to give patients but I wasn't following it myself.

I looked up my nearest Slimming Group and joined along with my daughter and a friend. I had called my sister and two other friends too to start slimming Worlds in their own areas which they did. I felt that when everyone is on the same journey we can encourage each other and all win at the same time losing weight and improving our general health.

I felt very welcome at my group from the day I started and my consultant always has encouraging words and tips to boost my journey.

As the weight started to go down on the scales I gained more confidence in myself that I could do this. After years of yo-yo dieting I finally found a group that changed my whole mindset on food. I find the food optimising with my everyday staples of rice, pasta and fruits lean meats and other "free food" controls my hunger.

I now have bounds of energy even though I am at menopausal stage. Where I struggled and got out if breath just climbing the stairs at home and work, I now climb them with ease. The best part of losing the weight is that my blood pressure is now in the healthy range and I no longer have to wear a size 20. I continue my journey with Slimming World and have recently changed my goal weight. I know with the continued support and encouragement from group I will achieve this and look forward to using the new changes Slimming World have implemented into the plan”
