Shaun Roberts -8.5stone! ...our very own member 🤩🙌🏼
✨️💛A Promise, A Journey, A New Life ✨️💛
Every so often, a story comes along that reminds us why Slimming World groups are so much more than a place to lose weight. They are communities where lives change, confidence grows, and people discover strength they never knew they had. Shaun Roberts is one of those remarkable stories.
Shaun first joined Slimming World back in July 2023 after a day out at Alton Towers with his beloved grandchildren. What should have been a joyful family outing took an unexpected turn when Shaun was unable to fit on one of the rides. The moment devastated him — not because of the ride itself, but because he saw the disappointment in his granddaughter’s eyes. Right then, Shaun made a heartfelt promise: he would lose weight, regain his health, and one day return with her so they could enjoy every ride together.
What Shaun didn’t realise at the time was just how far that promise would take him.
By Christmas 2024, Shaun had achieved an extraordinary milestone ...an incredible 🌟8½ stone🌟 weight loss. Through determination, consistency, and the unwavering support of his group, he transformed not only his body but his entire life. Today, Shaun proudly maintains that phenomenal loss, proving that his success isn’t a moment but a lifestyle.
And yes — he kept his promise. Shaun took his grandchildren back to Alton Towers, not just once, but several times since. This time, they rode everything. They laughed, they celebrated, and they created the memories Shaun had dreamed of making. The rides that once symbolised limitation now represent freedom, joy, and triumph.
But Shaun’s journey doesn’t end with his own success. As a valued target member of our wonderful group, he continues to weigh in almost every week, offering encouragement, sharing wisdom, and lifting others up. He’s a dedicated member of our social team, always ready to help, always ready to cheer someone on. His presence is a gift — steady, positive, and inspiring.
Shaun hasn’t just lost weight. He has gained a new life — one filled with energy, confidence, and the ability to say “yes” to moments that matter. His story motivates so many of our members, reminding us all that change begins with a single decision and grows with every step forward.
Shaun Roberts is proof that promises can change lives — especially the ones we make to the people we love.
