People seem surprised when I tell them that I go to a Super Slim class. "You don't need to go to a slimming club," they usually say, but I knew I did!

I wasn't really interested in losing weight when I started but a friend asked me to go along with her and as I dropped from one dress size to another I became more and more enthusiastic. I feel so much better and have more energy.

The reason I continue to go to Super Slim is to get support and encouragement from our Group Leader Jackie (who never lets me down) or the other members of the class. This is vital in keeping me going when sometimes determination and will power flag.

The other person to whom I owe my success is my dear long suffering hubby who has to accompany me on several long distance walks or hill climbs each week, although he grudgingly admits that he feels fitter too.
