“With two young children, I wanted to get fitter for them so I could
cycle and swim with them. The Slimpod has been amazing: I don’t know how
it works, I only know it does. It’s so simple.
“One of the first differences I noticed was that when I
was out visiting clients I no longer felt the urge to stop on the way
for a snack. And I don’t feel the need to have a drink or a snack when
I’m watching late-night TV at home. I just drink water instead.
“ I love real ale, but over the past few weeks I’ve
definitely been drinking less. And my evening meal has been a struggle
to finish, in fact most nights I’m leaving some on my plate, even
curries.
“My progress has been incredible. My weight was static
at 15 stone for a year then since starting the Slimpod I’ve lost
three-quarters of a stone in seven weeks. The first place I noticed the
difference was in my face. All of a sudden I lost my ‘hamster cheeks.’
“Then my trousers felt a little bit looser. I used to be a 32/34
waist but recently this went up to a 36. Now I can get back into a 34
waist and it’s feeling more comfortable every day. I didn't lose a lot
of weight at first, but after about five weeks people suddenly started
to comment that I'd lost weight. That felt really good!
‘The Slimpod really gives you a boost and as you make
progress it encourages you to do more to speed up your weight loss. I’ve
even been out on my bike a couple of times after not having got on it
for several years. “
