To see incredible weight loss just look in the Mirror!



My Slimpod has helped me lose six stone
the healthy way, says Darin McCloud







What the Daily Mirror wrote about Darin's Slimpod weight loss

Exactly a year ago, Darin McCloud was overweight – and simply desperate to lose it, too. So desperate, in fact, he vowed to pile on the pounds after being told he wasn’t fat enough for a free gastric bypass.


After battling with his local health authority, the 21st diabetic decided the only option left was to gorge himself on junk food and get so fat the NHS would be forced to help.


But fast forward 12 months and Darin is a shadow of the man he once was.

He’s lost six stone and now weighs just 14st 13lb. He is even training for the London Marathon and hopes he will soon be off his diabetes medication.

 

Darin puts his amazing weight loss down to sensible eating, in particular “retuning” his brain to think differently about food rather than just launching himself into fad diets.

At his heaviest and lowest emotionally, Darin then came across www.ThinkingSlimmer.com,  which offers podcast recordings to help people stop obsessing about food through “unconscious persuasion”. They listen to a recording for 10 minutes a day.


Before his discovery, Darin says he could feel his body shutting down. “At first the weight came off slowly, a few pounds here and there. After my first night listening to the Slimpod I left half my dinner – unheard of for me.


“By the end of the first week I stopped drinking Coke. Next, the ­biscuits, sweets, pies and pasties were out and I started eating fruit.

     


“Before, food was my fallback if I was upset or stressed but now I see it as fuel for my body."

 In the year Darin has been using Slimpod recordings, the change in his appearance – he has dropped from a 48in to 34in waist – is ­dramatic. But he is more impressed with what it’s done for his fitness.


 “At the start of this I couldn’t walk up the stairs without being out of breath and sweaty,” he says. “Now if I’m stressed or angry I go for a run instead of eating."

I WAS on the radio this morning reviewing the papers for LBC and as luck would have it, one of the news items was this continuing debate on whether certain items of food and drink should be taxed because of their high fat or sugar content. My view is that this 'Fat Tax' is unworkable and impractica...
