🎉MEET MY MEMBERS🎉
Meet my AMAZING Target 🎯 member Debbie from our Huntly group.
Local Mum Debbie smashed into her personal Target a few weeks ago!
But has been waiting for THAT JUST PERFECT "NOW PHOTO"
And I couldn't agree more it was worth waiting for!!
You look a million dollars Debbie!!
A completely different person & the smile on your face says it all!! Over 3½stone lighter 🙌
Massive well done 👏 I couldn't be prouder of you 💕
Here in her own words, Debbie has some words on her own weight loss journey:
"Sometimes all it takes is one photo to make you realise you no longer like the way you look.
Sometimes it’s the shortness of breath from walking up a flight of stairs you used to be able to run up.
Sometimes it’s the aches and pains in your joints after being on your feet all day.
For me, it was all of those things combined that gave me the push I needed to walk back through the Slimming World doors in January this year.
Walking back wasn’t easy. I was nervous, embarrassed, and full of “what ifs.” But looking back now, it was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made.
This journey hasn’t been about being perfect. It’s been about making small, sustainable changes, celebrating every milestone, learning from the weeks that didn’t go to plan, and not giving up on myself.
Back in January, I was wearing a UK size 18–20. Today, I’m comfortably fitting into size 12 clothing, and that still feels surreal. Weirdly, I don’t always see the weight loss when I look in the mirror, but I definitely see it in the photos that are taken of me now and in the drop in clothing sizes I’m buying. Those moments remind me just how far I’ve come.
My running has improved more than I ever imagined, those sore, niggly joints that used to slow me down are now so much more manageable, and as for those stairs? I’m back to sprinting up them again!
Since January, I’ve lost an incredible 3st 9lbs and now at my own personal target weight something I honestly never thought I’d be saying at the start of the year.
But if there’s one thing this journey has taught me, it’s that the biggest victories aren’t always measured by the scales. They’re measured in the confidence you’ve found again, the energy you have to enjoy life, the clothes you never thought you’d wear, and the little everyday moments that suddenly don’t feel like a struggle anymore.
I’m so grateful for the support from my Slimming World group and everyone who’s cheered me on along the way."
If you’re thinking about starting, or even coming back like I did, this is your sign. You don’t have to wait for Monday, next month, or the “perfect time.” The hardest step is walking through those doors—but it could be the step that changes everything.
Here’s to continuing the journey, one week at a time. ❤️
