After nineteen years, this week I enter my very last week as a Slimming World Consultant β£οΈ
After a lot of soul searching, after all my Slimming World members are just like my second family! I had to think of myself and my health, especially to be the very best for Millie, my granddaughter β£οΈ
In October, not long after the house fire, I was diagnosed with Fibromyalgia! As the months have gone by, the way it affects me has increased and my life has become resting for my groups and the recovering from my groups, which of course was no way to live.
With the support of Mr Mul we decided retirement was the only way I would be able to get stronger and become the very best me I could be with this diagnosis!
Over my nineteen years I have met so many wonderful members and have lifetime friends along the way too.
*Beginning firstly in the YMCA, Shiney Row
*Moving within weeks to St Oswalds Church, Shiney Row
*Followed by also running a second group in Penshaw Catholic Club
*My groups then moved to St Aidanβs Church, Herrington am and pm
*Then finally from the pandemic to Lakeside Community Centre which is where I will leave this week
We have achieved so many SW awards although the way too β¦..
Six Gold Awards
Pearl Award
Diamond Award
Which made me burst with pride collecting these awards on behalf of the members βοΈ
Thank you to my members and social team who have shown so much understanding in my decisionβ£οΈ
And our course to my Mam who has been right beside me every step of the way β£οΈ
