❤️ MY STORY… AND WHY I STILL LOVE WHAT I DO ❤️
Back in 1997, I joined Slimming World with one goal in mind… to lose 2 stone in 20 weeks for my brother’s wedding.
I did it! And WOW, did I feel amazing! 🥰
Little did I know that decision would change my life in more ways than one.
I’d always loved being around people and helping others, having previously worked in catering and retail, so becoming a Slimming World Consultant felt like the perfect fit.
And here I am, almost 30 years later, still doing something I absolutely LOVE! ❤️
But what is it that keeps me going?
Quite simply… YOU! My members. ❤️
Watching the changes in people is the most incredible privilege. It’s not just about the number on the scales. It’s seeing improvements in health, confidence, mobility, dress sizes and, sometimes, simply seeing someone’s smile get bigger.
What an honour to play even a small part in helping so many people achieve things they perhaps never thought possible.
I’m incredibly proud of every single person who has walked through my doors over the years and put their faith and trust in me, whether they specifically chose me or simply chose one of our groups.
And then there’s GROUP… because that’s where the magic really happens! ✨
It’s what makes Slimming World so special.
We celebrate the highs and support each other through the lows. We laugh… oh boy, do we laugh! 😂 We’ve shared tears too, because losing weight can be an incredibly emotional journey.
But the empathy, understanding and friendship you find in group are like nothing else.
We GET IT. We understand because we’re all on our own journeys.
Some weeks the path feels easy, other weeks it can feel like we’re walking uphill in wellies! But nobody is judged. Not by me and not by fellow members.
We encourage, support, motivate and celebrate one another. Friendships are made, confidence grows and lives really can change.
I’m still on my own journey too. I don’t stand at the front pretending to have all the answers. I understand the struggles, the wobbles and the determination it takes to keep going.
So, if you’ve been thinking about joining us, coming back after a break, or simply finding your spark again… there’s a warm welcome waiting. ❤️
You don’t have to be at your heaviest, have everything figured out or wait until Monday.
Just come as you are.
Nearly 30 years on, I still feel incredibly lucky to do what I do.
Thank you to every member, past and present, for being part of my journey too.
Group really is where the magic happens! ✨
