F
rom our blooming beautiful cover
onwards, we’re full of the joys of spring
this issue. Because whether you’re
starting out or hitting ‘refresh’ on your
slimming plans, this season has a special
energy that will help your dreams flourish.
So zing into spring with a guide to how
decluttering your mind could bring slimming
benefits (page 15), top tips for the upcoming
bank holidays (page 33), and a weight loss
boosting seven-day menu of breakfasts,
lunches and dinners starting on page 18. And on page 48, our
seasonal recipes will help you to discover British ingredients
at their best, so your slimming week will taste better than ever.
When it comes to real-life inspiration, we have a hat trick
of competition winners for you: our Slimming World Woman
of the Year, Couple of the Year and Miss Slinky. While they’re
all rightly proud of their titles, they agree that nothing beats the
best prize of all – the health, confidence and freedom that
weight loss brings. Share their motivating stories, starting
with how Maxine Wren lost an amazing 18st, on page 8.
