Can menopause make losing weight feel harder? ♥️

It’s something that comes up in group, and it’s not as simple as telling someone to just “try harder”.

Perimenopause and menopause can bring changes to sleep, energy, mood and our bodies, and all of those things can affect the habits we’re trying to build.

That’s why we have specific support available for members going through this stage of life ♥️

Slimming World’s guidance looks at healthy eating, activity and weight management during menopause, alongside the support you’ll get from me and your group.

And I thought this was really encouraging 👀

In a Slimming World survey of 2,472 members going through perimenopause or who had already experienced menopause, 79% said they’d successfully lost weight with Slimming World👏

Your journey might look different to somebody else’s.

That doesn’t mean you can’t succeed or that you just need to “try harder”.

Sometimes we need to understand what’s going on, work out what might help and find an approach that works for you ♥️

If this is something you’re navigating, please talk to me.

There are no silly questions 😊♥️

🍎 BACK TO SCHOOL… AND MAYBE BACK TO YOU? 🍎

September always feels like a fresh start, doesn’t it? The uniforms are ready, the routines are returning and summer is coming to an end… but while everyone else is heading back to school, could this be your time to come back to Slimming World? ❤️

Maybe the summer holidays have knocked you out of your routine. Maybe you’ve been telling yourself “I’ll start again when the kids go back.” Or perhaps you’ve never joined before but you’ve been thinking about it for a while.

✨ This could be your sign. ✨
You don’t need to wait until Monday.
You don’t need to wait until you’ve “lost a few pounds first”
And you certainly don’t need to feel embarrassed about walking through those doors.
At my groups you’ll find a warm welcome, absolutely no judgement, plenty of support and a room full of people who understand that real life happens ❤️
Whether you’re brand new, returning after a little break, or simply ready to put yourself back on your priority list, I’d absolutely love to welcome you.
New school year. New routines. Fresh start for YOU 🎒🍎
📍 Richard Price Centre, Llangeinor
🗓 Tuesdays at 5:30pm
📍 The Halo Leisure, Ogmore Vale
🗓 Saturdays at 8:30am
Come along and start your September with us. 🥰

✨ TRANSFORMATION TUESDAY ✨

Same woman. Same heart. Same story. ❤️
Just two very different chapters.

If I could stand beside the woman I used to be, hold her hand & tell her something, I think I'd simply say…

“You have absolutely no idea what you're capable of yet.” 🥹

The woman on the left was me before I began my Slimming World journey. I was struggling physically & emotionally, hiding so much behind a smile & putting everyone else before myself.

I didn't believe I could change.
I didn't believe I could lose the weight.
And I certainly couldn't have imagined the life that was waiting for me.

Then my daughter came along & something changed. ❤️ I finally had my reason to fight for myself & my future.

I joined Slimming World & one decision at a time, my whole life began to change.

Eventually, I lost 14½ stone.

But what I gained will always mean more than what I lost.

I gained confidence.
I gained freedom.
I gained belief in myself.
I gained a completely different relationship with food.
I gained a life I once couldn't imagine living.

And somewhere along the way, the woman who once needed so much support became a Slimming World Consultant herself, helping other people discover what they're capable of too. 🥹❤️

My journey hasn't been perfect. I've had gains. I've lost my way at times. I've struggled, restarted & had to remind myself of my own advice more times than I can count.

But that's why this picture means so much to me.

Present me doesn't look at past me with embarrassment or shame.

I'm proud of her.

Because she was the one brave enough to start ❤️

So if you're looking at someone else's transformation today thinking “I could never do that…” please remember:

Neither did I.

Until I did ❤️

And if I could reach back and take her hand for real, I'd tell her…

“Keep going, lovely. We're going to be OK. And you're going to be so bloody proud of where this takes us.” 🥹✨

We're so proud that Slimming World has been named the UK's most trusted weight loss programme for the second year running* ❤️🙌 For me, trust isn't only about an award though, it's about knowing you're joining a place where you'll be welcomed, supported and never judged.

Weight loss journeys can feel overwhelming sometimes. I love that Slimming World focuses on helping people make realistic changes that fit around real life, while being supported by people who genuinely care ❤️.

✨ Face-to-Face Friday ✨

Looking back at where I started compared to where I am now still feels surreal.

I walked through those Slimming World doors, hoping to lose weight. I never imagined I'd lose 14½ stone, reach my target, and go on to become a Slimming World Consultant.

My journey has been about so much more than the number on the scales. It's been about finding confidence, believing in myself again, making lifelong friendships, and discovering that I was capable of far more than I ever thought.

That's why I'll always champion face-to-face groups. There's something so special about walking into a room where you're never judged, always supported, and celebrated every step of the way. ❤️

If you're thinking about starting or even starting again, let this be your reminder that you don't have to do it alone. One step through those doors could change your life—just like it changed mine.

I can't wait to help even more people write their own success stories. 💕

Throwback Thursday 💫

Looking back at this photo reminds me just how far I've come.

Lately, I've been struggling with my journey. Over the last few months, I've gained some weight & for a while, I lost my groove... my sparkle. It's been hard & I'd be lying if I said it hasn't affected my confidence.

But then I look back at photos like this & remember where it all started.

At my heaviest, I felt ashamed, embarrassed, disgusted & deeply unhappy. Food was my comfort & I hid everything behind a smile, laughter, and always putting everyone else before myself. I didn't care about my health, my future, or even myself.

Then, one day, something changed.

The birth of my daughter gave me a reason to fight. She became my purpose & I finally realised that I deserved a better life, too.

Over time, I lost 14½ stone. More importantly, I found confidence, happiness & became the person I'd always dreamed of being—someone I honestly never believed I could become.

But journeys aren't straight lines. They aren't perfect.

Over the last 10 months, I've gained just over a stone & at times, it felt like I was losing myself again. The difference now is that I know this isn't the end of my story. It's just another bump in the road.

I've been at rock bottom before & I know what it feels like to believe you'll never change.

But I also know what it's like to prove yourself wrong.

So this isn't me looking back wishing I was there again. This is me reminding myself of what I'm capable of.

The sparkle is back. The fire is back. This chapter is only just beginning ❤️✨

If you're struggling right now, please don't give up on yourself. Progress isn't about being perfect—it's about refusing to quit.

Never stop believing in yourself. You are capable of so much more than you think ❤️
