I want to introduce you to two of my gorgeous members x sisters Marlene Askew and Val. Marlene has kindly written a little bit about her journey. Both sisters are smashing their journey, we are so proud of them in group. Pippa keeps us company every week and loves nothing more than a scritch behind the ears 🥰
"Joining SlimmingWorld was one of the best decisions I made along with my sister valerie and my granddaughter Georgena to encourage and support me. I thought being blind would make it extremely difficult for me to achieve any goals on my journey. How wrong can you be? Tina my consultant is a fantastic support along with all the group to which I attend. Everyone has their own story, their own journey, but their encouragement is amazing. Tina draws the best from everyone in that group, the good times the bad times and she always has a encouraging word or solution to help you on your journey. When I am feeling really hungry, I take a potato and make the SW chips in the air fryer they are a lifesaver to make me refrain from picking. I obviously get plenty of exercise walking everywhere with my Guide dog Pippa so don’t necessarily worry about joining gyms. Reaching my interim weight loss of 1.5 stones in such a short time is amazing and I could not have done that without the support of my family and group members. Thank you to everyone for the encouragement and confidence in getting there. It’s amazing what I have achieved in the kitchen, I experiment more than I have ever done, making the famous tomato soup quite regularly. SW meals are a big asset when you cannot be bothered cooking. Hopefully by next February I will be feeling like a new person on my 80th birthday, who have thought it?. The most exceptional change for me is not having to medication for reflux."
