Hi, 👋
I'm Karen, your local Slimming World Consultant in Northgate, Crawley! ❤️
My Slimming World journey began back in 2017 when I was feeling vulnerable, unhappy with my weight and fed up with having to travel out of town or shop online just to find clothes that made me look and feel good. At 17 stone, I knew something needed to change. 🙄
I successfully lost 2½ stone, 😁 but then Covid hit. 🤨 Like so many people, I struggled through lockdown, lost my motivation and eventually regained all the weight I'd worked so hard to lose.
In January 2023, weighing 17 stone 6lb, I decided to give myself another chance. This time, my motivation was much deeper than simply wanting to look better. 👩👗
My mum was needing more care, and because of my weight, I was finding it difficult to help her with everyday tasks. I was also taking several medications and facing concerns about diabetes and cholesterol, just like my mum. I realised that if I didn't make changes, my own health could follow a similar path. 💉💊🩺
On 7th January 2023, I walked back through the doors of a Slimming World group, determined to make this time different.
I stayed to group every single week, embraced Food Optimising, listened, learned, shared my struggles and celebrated my successes.
Just 51 weeks later, in December 2023, I'd lost an incredible 4 stone 13lb and reached my target weight! 🎯
But my biggest achievement wasn't just the number on the scales. It was regaining my confidence, improving my wellbeing and discovering that I was capable of so much more than I'd believed. 💪🤼♀️🏊♂️
My journey inspired me to become a Slimming World Consultant because I wanted to help others experience that same feeling.
I understand how difficult it can be to walk through those doors for the first time. I know what it's like to lose motivation, regain weight, feel disappointed and wonder whether you'll ever succeed.
But I'm living proof that you can start again, believe in yourself and achieve something amazing. 🥰
Today, I run a friendly, welcoming and supportive group in Northgate, Crawley, where there's no judgement, no humiliation and absolutely no need to feel embarrassed.
Whether you have a few pounds or several stones to lose, I'll be there to support, encourage and celebrate you every step of the way.😘
If I can do it, so can you! ❤️
