A civil servant who works partly from home, Lisa had yoyo dieted all her life. She lost some weight, only to put it back on, again and again.
“Christmas 2022 I hit a wall. My weight was starting to affect my life. I wasn’t going out, didn’t have anything to wear and didn’t want people to see me. My auntie had lost a lot of weight by going to Slimtone and, what’s more, she’d kept it off. I decided I’d better take myself in hand!
Although I was working full time, I had some flexibility and decided to make space to have an hour for myself and go along to the Slimtone class. I had very little expectation, so there was nothing to lose. After all, if I don’t stick with it, it doesn’t matter.
How wrong could I be…
I’ve never looked back. It has been really wonderful. I’ve lost just over 4 stone in 12 months – that’s about 1 pound per week, which is great. As well as losing the weight, I go to class and have met some great people and made real friends.
On holiday this summer with my two children, I got involved in everything, even scuba diving. That’s something I wouldn’t have done before – I was always that Mum sitting on the side lines, just watching!
In work I’ve got more confidence too. I stand up in front of people and make presentations – it’s made a big difference.
Slimtone just doesn’t feel like a diet.
I know I can sustain it long term and it’s so much easier than counting calories. It just fits into my life. The Spicy Parsnip Soup has always been a favourite, although I also really like the Cream of Broccoli soup that’s in the new Slimtone Soup Book. Another favourite is the Corned Beef Quiche – so easy and something all the family love.
Going to class has changed the way I think too. I know I don’t have to be perfect 100% of the time. The trick is to be consistent. I love going out and I’m no longer scared of social events and meeting people. I can do it all!
Give it a go!
If you’re fed up and want to lose weight, I’d urge you to just give it a go. Go along to a Slimtone class once and you’ll definitely go back! It’s not just about the Lifestyle Plan, it’s the amazing support you get from everyone. I love it and I’m proof that it works!
