I had been very overweight for about twenty years. I had tried every diet you can possibly imagine, the soup, banana and milk diets, even a "no food at all" diet. (but that one lasted about an hour.) Of course I've been to all the different slimming clubs, but I won't mention the names of
these as that would be swearing!

I work at a newsagents along with several other girls. One of them had spotted a poster in a shop window and askedif any of us might be interested in going to Super Slim. I have to say, that I had never heard of them before, so I thought I might as well give it a whirl. After all, I was now thirty nine and rapidly heading to be fat and forty!

Class night came and I have to say, I was feeling very nervous about weighing in front of a class full of people. But of course, there was no need. Janet, the clerk, welcomed me and gave me a form to fill in and then came the big moment - the scales! But again, I had no need to worry as Marilyn, our Group Leader, was very discreet and reassured me that the diet would work.

As time went on, I did lose lots of weight, but then my friends started to give up one by one, but I was determined to carry on. I had made lots of new friends at the club and we all encouraged each other. I found, as I had a few problems at home, it seemed to get harder to lose weight.
However, I did manage to keep off what I had already lost and just kept going to class until I sorted myself out.

I was then able to achieve target just before Christmas and just after my fortieth birthday. I have now been at target for quite a while and I am able to control my weight by eating healthily and controlling my cheats, all thanks to Marilyn and Super Slim.
