Speaking about her remarkable weight loss achievement, Liz said: “I was very unhappy within myself. I was withdrawn and didn’t want to socialise. I felt invisible. I couldn’t do any exercise due to pain in my joints due to the weight and taking lots of meds. I really felt at rock bottom when my endocrinologist said all my symptoms were due to being “morbidly obese”.

“Something had to change and I realised only I could do that. It gave me the motivation. A lady at my pharmacy mentioned a slimming world group at the end of my road so off a very nervous me went.

“My first group was amazing. Everyone made me feel so welcome and nobody judged me, I loved hearing everyone’s weight losses and stories of what they had done when they struggled.

“In My first week I lost an incredible 10.5lbs. I loved food optimising eating amazing meals that I’ve always eaten just with a slight twist or swap. I’ve never eaten so much since food optimising, I’m never hungry. I used to skip breakfast and even lunch sometimes. Now I can’t wait for meal times.

Losing weight has completely changed my life. My confidence is though the roof and I can now play with my grandsons. I’m taking on new challenges that only 16 months ago I wouldn’t of even thought of. I feel I can do anything now and my family are loving the new happier, energetic and confidant me.

Liz’s Slimming World group will be held at West St Leonards Community Centre every Monday at 5.30pm and 7.30pm from Monday January 8.
