ADVICE FROM MARION: EAT MORE – WEIGH LESS

My name is Marion and I have lived in Clifton since 1952. I was a bonny baby, chubby toddler, becoming a well-rounded teenager and finally an overweight woman. I had tried every quick-fix diet on the market only to end up putting even more weight on. A holiday snap shot was the turning point for me, I didn’t recognise just how much my weight had become out of control. It resulted in me feeling unhappy, as well as unattractive, and in turn very tired and sluggish.
Encouraged by my sister, I joined a Slimming World group. Although not knowing what to expect, I needn’t have worried as I was made very welcome by the consultant and other members. I was helped and guided to understand a healthy way of eating. There are no forbidden foods, and despite having a weakness for ice cream, biscuits and the odd glass of wine, I lost 7lbs in my first week. I felt fantastic.
How could it be possible to be able to eat so much and still lose weight? Well, you really can with Slimming World. I went on to lose a further 40lbs and have been at my target weight for four years. I have been a consultant for three years now and the pleasure and buzz I get from helping members lose those extra pounds and reach their target is indescribable.
I am really excited to be opening a new group here in Clifton, at the local swimming baths on Southchurch Drive, from Saturday 17th July at 10am. It really is extra easy. Come along and start your personal journey of success. I will be there to meet each and everyone of you and help you all to achieve your dreams. Marion can be contacted on 0115 974 5177.
