I personally recommend the diet plans
Nutrition Team ‘Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words can never hurt me’. Anne knows that this old phrase is far from the truth. After her GP informed her that she was in the obese category and it was little wonder that she was experiencing medical problems she knew the time had come to do something about her weight. In just 4 months Anne lost 3 stone and dropped from a size 20 to a size 18.
She tells us her story…
What weight and clothes size were you before you joined us?
I was 12 stone 3 lbs and a size 20 on top. Now I am 9 stone 3 lbs and fit into a size 10 top. I lost loads of inches on my waist as well.
What made you decide to join us?
I had a medical problem last January and when I saw the consultant he told me I was obese and asked me how I could be surprised that my health was suffering. He said the problem was not going to alter unless I lost weight. I have another appointment in February and I will go back and shake the man’s hand.
Was your weight causing you any problems?
I hated clothes shopping and I was really self conscious about my size. Now I feel bubbly and better about myself.
What difference has losing weight made to you?
Our daughter is getting married next year and I am looking forward to it now, I am even happy to pose for photos. Before I was dreading it, in case I spoilt them for her.
Tell us about your diet before you joined us?
I used to eat on the run as we lead a very busy lifestyle. I only ate once a day and wondered why I wasn’t losing any weight. But with this I have learnt to eat properly and at the right times. I have suffered with IBS for the best part of 20 years and I can honestly say learning to eat properly has improved my symptoms so much.
How do you feel about your weight loss?
I look and feel totally different and I have so much more confidence in myself. I don’t snack on junk food anymore and I am really enjoying a new lifestyle.
How have your family and friends reacted to your weight loss?
I have complete a 5k run for the pilgrims hospice charity raising approx £350 and all my family are so proud of me.
Are you confident about maintaining your weight loss?
Definitely, as long as I stick to the advice and support I receive you can’t go wrong.
Have you any tips you would like to give other dieters?
I personally recommend this diet to anyone wanting to lose weight. Whether it is a few stone or a few pounds because it teaches you to eat more healthily. It is so easy to follow and you get plenty of support.
