A LLANDYSUL woman has lost an amazing 9 stones with Slimming World which she says has ‘transformed’ her life. Tracy Jones, a busy mum, joined the Llandysul group in May 2015 and achieved he 9 stones loss by January this year.
Tracy said: “I was feeling sad and had no confidence or self-esteem when I was at my heaviest after my children were born. I had absolutely no energy to run around after my two boys. I decided enough was enough and then a Slimming World leaflet came through my door.
“So I went along and nervously dragged myself through the doors. That day was the start of a better a life for me and my children. I shouldn’t have worried, I was made to feel so welcome, everyone was kind and friendly and made me feel at ease.
“I have tried every diet in the past and didn’t quite believe that just by changing the way I eat to a healthier diet. I started to see the pounds falling of me every week.
“And my family were eating healthily too. I don’t feel like I’m on a diet as I can eat lots and don’t miss out on treats. I’m a big portion girl and on Slimming World I can have as much free food as I want, honestly. Family favourites are curry, spaghetti bolognese and Slimming World chips.
“Since losing my weight I feel so different and people hardly recognise me. I love clothes shopping again and don’t get down because nothing fits me. The best thing is that I have fantastic energy and even play football with my boys without getting hopelessly out of breath. I’m a proper mum again, one that my boys can be proud of.
“I owe a lot to my new friends and really couldn’t have done without the love, help and support of my consultant, Elaine and also the Llandysul Slimming World group I have made lots of friends who encourage me every week. She has always had faith in me build my confidence and self-belief. My family and friends have given me heaps of support. This is it now, the new, slim, happy healthy me is here for life. It’s not a diet but a lifestyle.”
Elaine, her consultant, added: “Tracy is a very good role model in the group and she helps and encourages others. We meet every Tuesday evening at The Cricket Club in Llandysul 7:30pm.”
