From Rock Bottom to Target Weight — My Slimming World Journey

Hi, I’m Lorraine — your local Slimming World Consultant for the Gillingham morning group at 📍 Gillingham Youth and Community Centre, 🕤 Tuesdays at 9:30 AM & 11:00 AM.

I didn’t just lose weight — I found myself again.

When I first walked into a Slimming World group, I was nervous, unsure, and hoping for change. What I found was support. Real, lasting, life-changing support from people who understood.

Slimming World isn’t a diet. It’s a lifestyle that fits around real life — family meals, busy schedules, and even your favourite dishes. I didn’t have to give up spaghetti carbonara or cook separate meals. I just learned how to make healthier choices that worked for me and my family.

Week by week, the weight came off — and my confidence came back. I moved more, felt stronger, and started believing in myself again. Eventually, I hit my target weight… and then I became a Consultant to help others do the same.

💪 Today, I’m proud to say I’ve reached my new personal target — and I’m here to help you reach yours.

If you’re feeling stuck, lost, or ready for a fresh start, come join us. You’ll be welcomed with warmth, support, and a plan that works.

If you’ve been thinking about joining Slimming World – now’s the time 👇.

Until 18th April, when you commit to 12 weeks in my group you’ll get an amazing offer – no joining fee and 12 weeks for the price of 10 🙌

✨ Slimming World Gillingham Morning Group
📍 Gillingham Youth and Community Centre
🕤 Tuesdays at 9:30 AM & 11:00 AM

Let’s help you become the version of you that you’ve been wishing for 💖
