Myth Busting,
So many think carbohydrates are bad for us, but they aren’t. They contain many nutrients that we need for every day function of the cells, and brain; helps with gut regulation and heart health; also releasing serotonin to aid our mood which is why I always say carbs give us a hug!

And are not calorific-
4 calories per gram carbs,
4 calories per gram protein
7 calories per gram alcohol
9 calories per gram fat.

Hope that has given you some answers!

Slimming World is a balanced way of eating.
If interested,
We meet every Tuesday

My husband would say potatoes!

All are tasty, satisfying and cheap, AND free !!
You can eat as much to be comfortably full.
Oh yes, I’m in!!

🩷🙏💪🏻🥳❤️. My journey started when a friend and I said we were finally going to do something about our weight! The following day we turned up in Puckeridge at a very warm and friendly group one August Tuesday, and never looked back.
I found the plan easy to follow and as someone who liked food and a good plate full, food optimising was perfect!!
Typically after 2 weigh-ins you receive your 1/2stone award, and I did, losing 8lbs! I successfully achieved 2 stone and Club10 ( 10%of your starting weight lost) by 10 weeks. I was flying. I loved the company with other members, and the competition to be Slimmer of the Week and take home a basket of free food to cook with that week.
I lost 4 stone 12.5lbs in total, and one friend walked straight past me as she failed to recognise me!
After that my consultant left and encouraged me to take her place , which I did, 12.5years ago.
And I still love it.

If you are thinking of joining, pop along to the Community Centre, any Tuesday at7pm, you’d be very welcome, or drop me a message if you have any questions.

✨ Slimming World success story ✨

“Joining Slimming World was one of the best decisions I made. I was originally referred by my doctor and also wanted to support my husband on his journey — but it soon became my own amazing journey too. 💚

My biggest tip for new members would be: if you can, always stay for the group chat after weigh-in. You learn so much from others and it gives you extra support and motivation. Remember, don’t get disheartened by a gain — even target members have them some weeks!

My exercise has always been walking — walking my dogs and walking to and from school — and it’s something I’ve always enjoyed.

My food choices have completely changed. Gone are the days of huge bowls of cereal, crisps, chocolate, chips and pies. Now I enjoy balanced meals like a weighed bowl of cereal with yoghurt and fruit, Slimming World lunches, plenty of vegetables and delicious Slimming World dinners. 🍓🥗

My favourite Food Optimising meal has to be Mushroom Stroganoff — it’s delicious!

The thing I love most about being a member is the feeling of belonging to an extended family. Everyone is so friendly, supportive and helpful. 💕

Something I can do now that I couldn’t before? Walk past fast food restaurants without wanting anything — and that’s a feeling I’m really proud of!

If you’re thinking about joining Slimming World, remember: small changes, amazing support and believing in yourself can make such a difference. 🌟
