🖤💜 Same Halloween spirit, but what a difference a year makes! 💜🖤
Meet the fabulous Emily, one of my lovely Gresley members, who’s lost an incredible 3 stone 9lbs since January! 🎉
Emily clearly has a talent for dressing up as cheerful characters 😂, but behind these fabulous photos is a truly inspiring story.
And rather than me tell you about it, I’ll let Emily share her journey in her own words. ❤️👇
“I came to slimming world because after years of being unhappy with how I looked and felt, I finally decided to do something about it. I also wish to start a family, and was told by the doctors that I wouldn’t be able to have IVF if I needed it because of my weight.
This spurred me in to come back to Slimming World as I had done it before a few years ago and it worked for me then, but over the years the weight piled back on. This time I have found it just as easy to follow, but I do enjoy having three healthy extras, as that widens the choice of meal options for me.
I enjoy coming to the groups because I like to talk to people who are going through a similar journey to me. The support everyone gives each other is beautiful.
I’m not quite where I want to be yet, but I am delighted to have lost 3 stone, 9 pounds so far since January 2026, and have gone from a size 20/22 to 12/14. My goal loss is 5 stone which I’m hoping to get by January 2027 before I go on holiday!
The pictures are from Halloween last year and Halloween this year (clearly I enjoy dressing up as very happy characters!).”
