Are you an average sized person – feeling slightly overweight, out of condition, clothes shrinking? That was how Ann felt and she was also facing major life changes both at work and in her personal life. She’d been fat at 40, flabby at 50, but determined to be slim at 60!
“My daughter already lost 5 stone with Slimming World and was telling me she could eat everything in my cupboards because it was free!’ joked Ann. ‘To prove that what she was saying was true she took me to group. I was amazed at how friendly, welcoming and accepting the members were, but the most surprising thing was that I could set my own target and decide how quickly I would like to achieve it.’
Ann discovered that there was no limit to the range of foods on the plan – nothing is forbidden! Her favourite spicy foods, traditional family meals and even foods normally associated with takeaways can all be enjoyed by the whole family – no need for special ‘diet’ foods on this plan.
Small changes in the way the food is prepared add up to big differences in weight loss. Steak and chips, chicken curry, stews and full English breakfasts are not what you usually consider to be diet food, but Slimming World allows for all these.
These small changes meant a steady 1 – 2 lb a week weight loss resulting in Ann leaving the average size 16 behind (together with most of her behind!) to reveal a much slimmer and healthier size 10 figure. Feeling fitter has also led to a whole new enthusiasm for life including taking up rowing as a Body Magic element of her plan, becoming a Slimming World Consultant and, most importantly, having the energy to fully engage with her new grand-daughter.
Ann opens the doors of her new group at the Navy Club on 8th October and is looking forward to welcoming both new and returning members. Join her and discover for yourself why this plan works!
