After forty years of yo-yo dieting I found success with Super Slim. I didn’t want to be fat and forty. I suddenly decided enough was enough. I joined Super Slim in July 2000 weighing in at 17st 6lbs. I was in a real rut, my weight was escalating by a few pounds every week, I felt ill, I kept having health problems, nothing major but I never felt 100%. What with no exercise, no job, I never wanted to go out anywhere. I am a full time carer for my husband, Graham, who suffers with an incurable neurological disease,. He was diagnosed with this disease a few months after our son, James was born, nearly nineteen years ago. Since then I have played at dieting. When Graham has been bad I eat and when he’s a bit better I diet. I hated myself and my size.

As soon as I came to Super Slim I knew I would succeed this time. Margaret was really supportive and all the members are encouraging to each other. Losing weight has changed my life. From hardly ever going out I have started going to aerobics and line dancing, I have gained confidence and made new friends. I still have a treat once a week on Tuesday night after the weigh in. It keeps me going, I shall still keep attending Super Slim as I enjoy being Margaret’s Clerk. The knowledge that I have succeeded with my diet has given me a much more positive outlook on everything else. I feel sure that with a little help from Margaret and Super Slim I will maintain my weight at target for ever
