Moorends Meeting

Shirley joined Slimlines in April 2006 and reached her goal weight in September. Shirley could not supply a before photograph as she would not let anyone take photos of her when she was bigger. Shirley says, ‘I was feeling really low and depressed. I had recently lost my husband and was over eating on chocolate, biscuits and literally anything, but as anyone knows, it's a vicious circle! The more you overeat the more depressed you become. I knew I had to do something about it and saw an advert in the local newspaper for Lyn Mulligan's Slimlines. I had known Lyn from going to her when she had worked for someone else and I felt confident that with her I would get the weight off.
The first week I lost 3lb and from then on in I lost weight every week, even though some weeks it was only a 1lb, but at Slimlines Lyn always says ‘aim for a 1lb a week then you'll never be disappointed. At Slimlines one of the rules are that you have to stay to the meetings. No one ever has a problem with this, as Lyn is so funny but really really motivational and as the weeks went by I was feeling better and better, ready to become part of the real world again. My family were really impressed with my weight loss, that my grandaughter decided to join and has lost over a stone in 4 weeks!
I am now more active, have more energy, but most of all, I feel ready to get my life back again. Thank you Lyn and all at Slimlines. Shirley lost 35lbs in 24 weeks. Was a size 20 now a size 14 .
Shirley's tip - Get rid of all you big clothes. Remember your free day you can have your chocs and stuff then.
