Just a reminder all of the Slimming World groups I run this week! 😍

It’s great to show you how my members are progressing on their Slimming World journey and I shared with you previously when Sue picked up her 1.5 stone award, well she had carried on doing fantastic and this week in group she achieved her Club 10 target award 😍

This means she’s lost 10% of her body weight 🥳! Lowering her Blood Pressure, taking the pressure off her joints, lowering her cholesterol, lowering her risk of heart disease & diabetes- just to name just a few of the reasons it’s great to achieve Club 10!

We are so happy for you and proud of you Sue! Keep up whatever you’re doing 😉

Meet Brian

Brian joined my Slimming World group at the beginning of October on the very strong advice from his doctor! His health being his motivating factor for joining, he threw himself into the plan 100% - with a 6.5lb loss on week 1 and picking up his 1/2 stone award on week 2 with a 4lb loss 🤩

By 7 weeks into the plan, he had already lost 1.5 stone and achieved that all important Club 10 award! Which he knew had improved his health considerably 😊 He was recognising changes on the outside too, having to buy a new belt for his trousers!! We love non scales victories like that and he stayed to group every single week so we could celebrate with him as those stones kept dropping off him!

The awards kept coming, the Slimmer of the Week basket become known as “Brian’s basket” at one point 😆 and he stuck to plan 100% and remained focused on his goal of becoming a healthier version of himself! He enjoyed shopping for new clothes that he could fit into in any shop!

He filled up on free food, enjoyed normal meals and never went hungry - that’s the joy of our plan! And I’m delighted to say Brian has lost 4 stone 13 pounds in 33 weeks!!! I’m hoping to be handing him his 5 stone award next week and he is a few pounds away from his target! Anyone who thinks Slimming World is just for ladies, needs to think again - this is life changing and can be life changing for ANYONE!!!

Brian we are so proud of you! 🥰

Meet Claire

Claire joined my Slimming World group in April 2022, after having a chat on the phone first about whether the plan would be right for her. I explained how our generous & flexible plan is suitable for anyone and everyone and she came along the next week. 🥰

Week 1 she lost 5lbs and was chuft to bits! Having lost some weight on her own already, but coming to a standstill, she was thrilled to see the scales going down week after week ⬇️

Within 3 weeks she had her 1/2 stone award & 6 weeks her 1st stone award - something a lot of my members do 💪🏻 By week 8 she had achieved her Club 10 award - losing 10% of her body weight 🥳 Claire went on holiday and was able to feel happy and confident in her clothes choices - Something most of us join Slimming World for 🥰

In December 2022, Claire reached her first target with an overall loss of 3 stone 11.5lbs and stayed in her target range for over a year. She then decided to lower her target and went back to food optimising 100% to take her total loss up to 4 stone 12 pounds, which she has been maintaining perfectly since! She enjoys days out, holidays and anything else life has thrown at her - all while following the plan, eating real food, navigating health issues, working her as* off and looking after her family! She is amazing 😍

So proud of you babe! ❤️

Meet Louise

Louise joined my Castle Bromwich Slimming Group on the first week of January 2023, because she had a wedding in Italy in the July and wanted to wear a nice dress and feel comfortable. Within the first month, she had achieved her 1/2 stone award and by 8 weeks, she collected her 1 stone award and had lost 10% of her body weight. 🤩

She made changes to the way she thought about food, cooked it and soon the whole family were enjoying meals from the thousands of recipes on the Slimming World website. She already noticed the physical differences from losing weight, with her clothes feeling a little looser! She continued to lose weight every single week, always staying to group where she picked up new ideas and tips from the other members, while motivating and inspiring new members of the group with her weight loss. By the week of the wedding in Italy, she had lost over 3 stone and was feeling fantastic in her dress! She was able to attend the event and food optimise, still not gaining weight the week she attended the wedding. Louise loves that the plan allows her to cook the same meal for the whole family and it’s just become the normal for them all now - eating low calorie, filling healthy meals. She continued to lose weight until she reached her target weight that she chose for herself, at the end of November 2023 - losing a total of 4 stone 3.5lbs. 🥳

She has now been at Target for 18 months and has learned adapted to life as a target member - being able to live her life normally, eating out, socialising, going on holidays and staying within her ‘target bubble’ without ever stressing over the scales! She is a member of my social team in group - continuing to support and motivate other members in group every week and I couldn’t be more thrilled for her and proud of her totally changing her life 🥰.

Meet Danielle

Danielle joined my Slimming World group after she had tried all other diets and had made the decision to have weight loss surgery. Her best friend persuaded her to join my group instead and what a fab decision that was! 💥

She was 6.5lbs down on week 1, then another 3lbs down on week 2 and by week 4, she was 1 stone down - this girl was on fire 🔥 she changed her food habits to fill up on free food first, always stayed to group and soaked up the support and ideas from the other members and was a massive inspiration to everyone else, as they watched her picking up awards week after week 🤗

By week 11 she had lost 10% of her body weight - such an important milestone for members - as the health benefits this brings are huge! Lower BP, lower cholesterol, less pressure on the joints, lower risk of heart disease & diabetes and one we love members reaching and Danielle had done it in less than 3 months of joining 🤩

She’s started the body magic program, increasing her steps and pushing herself to do more, being reminded in group that activity is not always about the number on the scales - it’s about those non scale victories- clothes that feel different, inch loss & increased energy levels 😜

And the picture shows the difference in her journey so far - 19 weeks and 3 stone 10 pounds down! She still going strong and knows there is no need for weight loss surgery when she can eat unlimited free food and never feel hungry! 😋

You’re smashing it so far Dan, so proud of you and can’t wait to see you get to target 🥰

Meet Catherine

Cathy found my Slimming World group in January this year. She joined following a cancer scare, which ended in a total hysterectomy at age 36, which put her into early menopause. This led to weight gain and she was advised by her oncologist to try and lose some weight for her health. 💕

She did exactly that, when she lost 6.5lbs in her first week on plan, then she lost another 3lbs on week 2 to pick up her 1/2 stone award and has smashed it every single week since 💪🏻

She always stays to group and with the support of her bestie and the rest of the group, she was leaving with awards week after week - picking up her 1 stone by week 5 and losing 10% of her body weight by week 10 🥳

She hasn’t had an easy ride and had faced some health issues, which made the whole plan even harder for her - yet she’s still lost weight with an average loss of 3lb a week! She is always there to cheer everyone else on in group each week, knowing group is the place to pick up tips and ideas to help with the week ahead 🤩

In 19 weeks, she has lost a fantastic 3 stone 13 pounds without a single gain and Im pretty sure we will be handing her that 4 stone award in group this week 😍

Well done Cathy, we all all so proud of you 👏🏻
