New slimmingworld merch ❤️

Today’s the day, Paisley! 🎉

Tonight at 7pm, our brand new Slimming World group opens its doors for the very first time at St Mirins Parish Hall, Incle Street — and I cannot wait.

Over the past week I’ve been talking about who this group is for.

It’s for you if you used to come to Slimming World and drifted away. No explanations needed. No catching up required. You just walk in.

It’s for you if you’re on weight loss medication and wondering whether Slimming World still has a place in your journey. It does. Completely and without any judgement whatsoever.

It’s for you if you’ve never tried Slimming World before and you’re just a wee bit curious. Come and see what all the fuss is about. 😄

And just to sweeten the deal — every new member tonight at 7pm gets a FREE Slimming World recipe book, chosen from a list of 21 titles. Plus there’s currently a free joining offer running through Closer and Woman’s Weekly magazines too.

I’m Douglas. I’m your consultant. But I’m also a Slimming World member who’s lost over half my body weight and got my health back in the process. This group means everything to me — and I’d love for it to mean something to you too.

Tonight. 7pm. St Mirins Parish Hall, Incle Street, Paisley.

See you there. 💚

Buddies!

I’m going to tell you what actually happens when you walk through the door at Slimming World. I think there are a few assumptions made out there that are worth clearing up.

Nobody stands you up in front of the room! Nobody makes you say how much you weigh out loud! I can’t imagine anything worse! 😱

You come in, you get weighed privately, just between you and me first time, then our amazing ‘weigh’ social team members after that. That’s it. Whatever the number is, it stays private.

Then you stay for group. And this is the bit that surprises people most — it’s not a lecture. It’s a conversation. Real people, talking honestly about real life. The wins, the wobbles, the week that went sideways because of a birthday or a bad day at work. The stuff that actually happens.

There’s laughter. There’s the odd moment where someone says something that makes you think — “that’s exactly how I feel”. There are ideas, recipes, strategies that actually work in the real world. Real food learning.

And there’s no judgement. Not about where you’re starting from, not about how you’re choosing to lose weight, not about how long you’ve been away. My background in Psychotherapy/Counselling makes sure of that!

I know walking in for the first time — or coming back after a while — mibbe takes courage. I know because I’ve done both. You have nothing to fear - the best decision I ever made 🙏

Our brand new session starts this Wednesday, 3rd June at 7pm. St Mirins Parish Hall, Paisley. Come and see for yourself. 💚

Happy Sunday Paisley ❤️

No, this isn’t AI!

Yes there really is over 13st / 85kg difference between these versions of me.

Come hear from me but also my amazing members who have lost 1, 2, up to 6, 7, 8 and 9st.

Take that first step to the rest of your life, to a safe place with people on the same journey as you ✌🏻

I’ve just finished parkrun this morning and I was thinking on the way round…

ONE MONTH of weight loss medication costs roughly the same as a full YEAR of Slimming World membership.

If medication is the path someone’s chosen, of course I respect that completely, and as I’ve said before, we’re here to support you alongside it.

But I think it’s worth saying out loud, especially for people who are weighing up, (no pun intended 😂) their options or wondering whether they can afford to get support right now.

For the cost of a single month’s GLP-1 medication, you could have a full year of weekly group sessions. A year of Food Optimising — a genuinely flexible, enjoyable way of eating that works around real life. A year of building habits that don’t disappear when you decide to stop the medication. A year of walking into a room full of people who get it, because they’re on the same journey. A year of the SW app, the blog, the friendship, the empathy, the understanding.

Whatever your starting point — medication, no medication, or both together — there’s a place for you here, and it costs a lot less than you might think.

Come and find us. Every Wednesday at 7pm, St Mirins Parish Hall. 💚
