My Weight Loss Story

You can be FitnSlim!

I had been a yoyo dieter all my life and had got to the stage where, though I believed I was eating healthily, I was actually starving myself fat and every year I seemed to gain another stone rather than lose it!  I had also developed chronic IBS (Irritable Bowel Syndrome) and was in pain with a bloated stomach every day.  I was also having more and more allergic reactions to different foods.

I had tried almost every diet programme out there and would lose but would quickly regain everything I lost and more!  So I had got into the no breakfast, as small a lunch as possible and then eat most of my calories in the evening routine.

Almost 5 years ago, I started using the Herbalife products myself and was really pleased when I lost my first stone in 6 weeks!  I went on to lose just over 4½ stone and go down 4 dress sizes and now not only feel great but am in control of my weight for the first time in my life. I no longer suffer with IBS and have very few allergies.

My husband Geoff never looked as though he needed to lose weight but he lost 2 stone when he went on the products to support me and definitely toned up!    What’s also been great is that we both have so much more energy as well.

Three years ago, I had an accident and had to go into hospital for an operation.  The hospital insisted I had an ECG before I had the operation and the result was that I was told I was “super fit” for my age! An incredible change in just two years.

We live in the beautiful market town of Bury St Edmunds.  We were told that moving to East Anglia would be “the death of ambition” but have found this to be completely untrue.   The area is vibrant, growing and offers us a great work life balance with stunning countryside and beautiful vistas.

Geoff’s affection for East Anglia is linked to his love of nature, in particular birdwatching (thankfully not a twitcher – just the odd nervous tic!).

My hobby takes the form of my very individual, spooky 16.1 hand Lippizaner gelding, Winston, who everyone tells me is the most “unhorselike” horse they’ve ever met and he definitely thinks too much.   But I love him to pieces and wouldn’t change him as I wouldn’t know how to deal with a “normal” horse!  He is certainly very appreciative that I’ve lost weight!!

Finally, thank you for taking the time to know more about us – we look forward to meeting you and finding out about you and how we can help you achieve your personal wellness goal, whether that’s weight loss or weight gain, sports performance or just trimming and shaping up a bit!
