Past Slimming

At 18 years old and weighing in 16stone 4 pounds I decided I was going to make a change. November 2008 I had just started university in a new country and was feeling self conscious being so overweight. I regretfully didnt go out during any of the freshers nights, being the only one left in when all my flatmates had gone out partying. I was paranoid and lacked fashion taste - not a good combination in an overweight teenager. One weekend I decided enough was enough and joined WeightWatchers! I met some fabulous friends, a lovely lady I refer to as my "Granny Mary" amongst many others. The leader was fantastic and after 7 months I'd lost 4 stone. I managed to keep my weight off to go on holiday with my friends, only to return to university the next year and hook one of my best friends as a boyfriend! Both enjoying food, we ate well...ate alot! I gave up on WeighWatchers and slowly began to burst out of my jeans.

I've now been going out with my boyfriend for a year and a half I am over a stone heavier than my lowest weight achieved through WW.



At approx 17stone in the August 2008 (before I started University)
