👋 Hello… I thought it was time for a proper introduction! 👋

For those who may not know me very well, here’s a little bit about me 💛

My name is Amanda Ray! 💖
I’m very much a real-life, list-making, tea-drinking, slightly forgetful human who loves a good chat and a good laugh! 🤭

🍽 Let’s talk food…
Foods I love include toad in the hole, roast dinners, and curry … but if I’m being totally honest my absolute favourite food is chocolate 🍫.

Foods I don’t like… I have a very weird phobia of tomato ketchup, baked beans, and vinegar 🤢
(just the smell is enough!)

💼 A bit about my work life:
I’m currently a Slimming World Consultant and have been for 7½ years , and I absolutely love it! 💕

Before that, I’ve had quite the mix of jobs!
I’ve been:
☀️ A kids’ Holiday Rep for First Choice
🏊‍♀️ A lifeguard and swimming teacher
🏹 An archery instructor and high ropes instructor
📞 A call centre agent at HPI doing car data and background checking.
💰 Cash office administrator for B&Q

…All alongside bringing up my daughter, who is now 12 (going on 25!) 😄

🏡 Outside of work, you’ll usually find me:
☕ Drinking tea
📝 Making lists
📱 Scrolling Facebook
💅🏻 Having my nails done (the sparklier the better!)
🔍 And constantly forgetting where I’ve put my phone 🙈

💛 A few random facts about me:
I’m happiest when I’m spending time with my family, especially on day trips or little holidays 🌴
I’m terrible at remembering where I put things…my brain is honestly like a goldfish 🐠

As a child, my life ambition was to be a trampolining instructor or a teacher
I also wanted to be a singer, but that dream didn’t last long… I sound like a squealing cat 🎤😆

Now it’s your turn 💬
Tell me your name, your favourite food, or one random fact about you … I’d love to get to know you better 💕

💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛

We’re proud to announce our sponsorship of ITV’s Ant & Dec’s Limitless Win this January 🎉!

It’s the perfect place to share our message of support and inspiration this new year. Just like the show’s contestants, with Slimming World you’ll discover that with the right encouragement and know-how, your potential is limitless ✨.

Let us know if you’ll be tuning in ❤️.️

I wanted to share a little bit of my story today, because if it helps even one person feel less alone, then it’s worth it ❤️

This is an honest post and has taken me a lot of courage to post, so please be kind 🙈

When I first joined Slimming World, I lost over three and a half stone in just 12 weeks. I then went on to lose eight stone. It honestly changed my life. I felt lighter in every way – physically and emotionally.

But life happens… Things change…
And I’m only human! 🥺

For various reasons, I stepped away from group… and the weight crept back on. Slowly at first, then quicker than I ever expected! 😳
Old habits returned, comfort eating slipped in, and before I knew it, I was struggling again. 😢

Going back to group wasn’t easy…Walking back through those doors took courage. But it was the best decision I could have made.

I’ve now lost just over four stone. I’m not quite where I used to be – and I’ll be honest about that. But I am still over four stone lighter than when I first started, and that matters. Progress matters, even when it isn’t perfect!

I know how it feels to struggle with your weight.
I know how easy it is for it to creep back on.
I know the guilt, the frustration, the “I’ll start again Monday” feeling.
But, I also know how powerful group support is. The encouragement, the understanding, the motivation, the reminders that you are not failing – you’re learning!

Losing weight isn’t easy. If it was, none of us would be here in the first place. But giving up on yourself is so much harder in the long run. 💞

I’ve attached photos to show that even though I might not be exactly where I’d love to be right now, I am so much further along than when I first began. And that gives me hope – every single day. 😊

So, If you’ve been thinking about coming back to group but feel worried because you’re not where you once were, please don’t let that stop you. I understand. Truly. There is no judgement here, only support, kindness, and people who get it.

You are human.
You are allowed to stumble.
But you never have to give up on your dreams 🥲

If you’re ready – or even just thinking about it – we’d love to welcome you with open arms 💕

If you’re looking for a consultant that is honest, understanding and supportive then come along and join me…

If you’re reading this and feeling uncomfortable in your own body, please know this - I see you, and I understand! 🥺
I know how it feels to avoid mirrors, to dread getting dressed, and to feel out of breath doing things that should feel easy.
I know how it feels to struggle tying your shoes, to feel your knees struggle going upstairs, to avoid sitting on certain chairs, or to say no to days out because you’re worried about keeping up or how you’ll look 💔
I know the quiet embarrassment, frustration and sadness that can come with carrying extra weight- I really do!

But I also know how amazing it feels to lose weight 💕
To move more easily, to have more energy and to start recognising yourself in the mirror 🥰

That feeling is powerful and it is possible for you too! 😊

Whether you want to lose 7 pounds or 30 stone, whether you’re just starting out or starting again…. we’re here to help you 🤗

If things haven’t gone to plan lately, that’s okay. The past is the past.
This week could be the game changer you’ve been waiting for!

This week in group, we’re all going to have the opportunity to discover our refreshed plan together 😊
We’ll be going through our brand new books, talking everything through step by step, and getting inspired as we look at how this new approach can support your weight loss journey 🤍

No judgement, no pressure, just real support 💗

All it takes is 1 hour of your time to take the first step towards a healthier, happier and lighter future…
One hour really can change everything 🤍

So whether you’re coming back, already with us, or thinking about joining for the very first time, please come along and take a seat this week.

You don’t have to do this alone 💕

Group details are in the comments below. I’d truly love to welcome you 😊

31/12/2025

As 2025 comes to a close and the door to 2026 opens, I just wanted to take a moment to reflect on the past 12 months and honestly… I am so proud! 🥹

🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

This year in my Slimming World groups, an incredible 752 stone has been lost! …. Yes, you read it correctly… 752 stone! (Or 10532lb to be precise! 😉)

🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

But it’s about so much more than the weight-

This year I’ve watched members…

🎉 achieve life-changing weight loss awards

🎉 lower or even stop medication

🎉 reverse diabetes

🎉 become more active and confident

🎉 break habits they thought they’d have forever

🎉 make new friendships and find real support

🎉 believe in themselves again! 🥲

Every weigh-in, every small step, every setback overcome - it all adds up to something truly special! 🥰

Each and every member should be so proud of what they’ve achieved, because none of this happens without commitment, courage and consistency.

If you’re reading this and thinking “I wish I could do that” – please know that every single person who walked through my group doors started exactly where you are now. No judgement, no pressure, just support, understanding and real-life results.

Here’s to celebrating how far we’ve come… and looking forward to everything that’s still possible in 2026 💫
