Are you ready to lose weight change your life in 2025?
For many, the idea of joining a Slimming World group can be daunting, and Matthew was no exception. Like so many others, he felt embarrassed about his weight and unsure about where to start.
Matthew, from Great Barr, had tried calorie counting, but found it too restrictive and unsustainable. He joined a gym, only to realise that no amount of exercise could offset the choices he was making in the kitchen. On top of that, he assumed slimming groups weren’t for men and dreaded the thought of stepping on the scales in front of others.
However, Matthew’s first weigh-in was a turning point. He discovered a welcoming, friendly atmosphere where everyone shared the same goal: to support each other and make positive changes. The experience shattered his preconceptions, and he immediately felt at ease.
Matthew found losing weight surprisingly straightforward with Slimming World’s approach. It wasn’t about going hungry or cutting out favourite foods. Instead, it focused on making informed choices. Nothing was off-limits - not even Matthew’s weekly Chinese takeaway. Despite enjoying his favourite meals, he lost an incredible three stone and achieved his target weight. Today, he feels fitter, healthier, and more confident than ever and is now supporting local member running his own Slimming World Group in Great Barr!
Matthew’s story is proof that Slimming World works for everyone, regardless of their starting point. His inspiring journey shows that taking that first step can lead to life-changing results.
Matthew’s Slimming World group meets every Wednesday at 7pm at St. Bernard's Parish Church in Great Barr. Your first session is a warm and welcoming introduction to the plan, where you’ll learn how it works, set your personal goals, and meet a supportive group of people who understand the journey you’re about to begin. To learn more or to book your first session, contact him at 07359 705015.
Matthew is now a Slimming World consultant, helping local members achieve their own weight loss goals. The group’s first-week weight loss record is an incredible 13.5 lbs in just 7 days! This amazing achievement was possible thanks to the flexibility of the Slimming World plan, which allows members to enjoy satisfying meals while making smarter choices. By following the plan’s simple guidance and staying motivated within our supportive group, this member proved that impressive results are within reach for everyone.
