Our gorgeous Tracy Risling St Mary's Woman of the Year 9.30 am group
In her own words from her heart ❤️
" In September 2024 my life changed ,I was diagnosed with Diabetes ,it wasn't the diagnosis, it was the painful memories of my mum who sadly lost her life with complications .
I joined Slimming World, i felt it was time to take control and change my life for good ,I joined with a purpose and a different mindset .
My first week I lost 8lbs ,the more weight I lost the more I felt motivated and week by week the weight came off .Since starting my journey I have lost 7 and half Stone .
My relationship with food has completely changed , Slimming World has given me confidence and a plan I can stick to long term.
Meal planning has become a big game changer with my family life . My joints don't ache, I'm not living with back pain,I have lots more energy and I dont need a walking stick anymore .
My non sale victory is that I can actually fit in the bath now .
It's not been an easy road ,there have been challenges and setbacks and days when I wanted to give up , but the small steps have been worth it .
If this story inspires you ,remember no matter how impossible it seems every journey starts with the first step .
Be kind to yourself and always ask for help, never under estimate what you can achieve .
Everyone in the group is very supportive including Arlene, i know I couldn’t do it without you all.
May 2026 I no longer have Diabetes
