Slimming World — January-February 2018

My slimdown stats...

and even my 30th birthday, and I was amazed

at how much my confidence grew with every

success on the scales. I’d always put on a front

at social occasions and felt self-conscious that

people might judge my big appetite. Now I felt

secure about eating in front of people – loving

my food was helping me slim! I started walking

George to and from school and, as my energy

increased, I even built my way up to running

a 5K Race for Life for charity!

Eleven months after making

our pact, I reached my target

weight. We booked our dream

getaway and, in March 2017,

I stepped onto the Brooklyn Bridge

in New York, with a very proud

Tim clasping my hand. Since

happy, confident, full of energy

and with a new job as a Slimming

World Consultant – and I can’t

wait to see what I can do next.
