My Slimming World Journey
I joined Slimming World on 6th September 2023, walking through those doors with a mix of nerves and excitement — and with my little boy by my side. I worried about how it would feel, but we were both welcomed with open arms, and instantly I knew I’d found somewhere I truly belonged.
Stacey, my consultant, was incredible from the very start. She talked me through the plan, reassured me, and helped me believe I could do this. I joined because I wanted to lose weight for my wedding, and although I didn’t reach my target before the big day, something far more important happened - I found confidence. I learned to love myself again and felt beautiful and proud when I walked down the aisle.
In June 2024, I reached my target for the first time, a milestone that felt unbelievable. Then, in August 2024, I found out I was pregnant. I continued following the plan as best I could and had a healthy pregnancy, avoiding gestational diabetes thanks to the weight I’d already lost,continuing to attend group and the habits I’d built.
In March 2025, I gave birth to a healthy baby girl. Those early months were magical and intense all at once, but gradually I found my rhythm again, and returned to group when my daughter Elsie was 10 days old.
By November 2025, with my daughter now seven months old, I reached my target again, having lost 2st 9lb.
Along the way, something I never expected happened: I was nominated for several Slimming World awards, each one reminding me how far I’d come. And most recently, I proudly won the Icon of the Year Award - a moment I will never forget, and a reminder that this journey has transformed me inside and out.
Looking back, this journey has been about more than weight loss. It carried me through a wedding, pregnancy, and motherhood, helping me find confidence, strength, and a community I adore.
Thank you to Stacey and every single member who supported, encouraged, and celebrated with me. I wouldn’t be the woman - or the mum - I am today without you all.
Slimming World didn’t just change my weight.
It changed my life.
