A SLIMMER from Mayland has been named as the ‘greatest loser’ of the year.
The Mayland Slimming World group has named member Sue Eyers as the ‘Greatest Loser’ after shedding four stone and seven pounds in just over a year.
Sue joined the group in September 2021 and has now gone from a dress size 22 to a 12.
In her first week at the group she lost 6.5 pounds and was blown away.
She is now able to enjoy outings with her grandson in the park and has got back into horse riding.
She said: “When I first joined the group I never dreamt that I would be in the position I am now. Losing weight has made such a big difference to my life.
“My health has improved, I have more energy, I’m happier and I feel more comfortable in my own skin.
“I started to put on weight when my work life took over and I didn’t make time for me.
“When I first joined Slimming World I struggled to walk to the end of my road. Now I love keeping up with my grandson in the park and at soft play.
“My family and friends are all amazed by how much I can eat and lose weight.
"I still eat all my favourite meals, like cooked breakfasts and chicken tikka masala with rice.
“I just prepare and cook them differently now and they taste so much better."
She added: “I know it can feel like a big step joining Slimming World because you don’t know what to expect.
"But, right from the first moment I walked into my group I was made to feel at ease, and the support I’ve received has been amazing.
“I look forward to going each week to catch up with all of my new friends – I just love it.”
The Mayland Slimming World groups are held every Tuesday at 3.30pm, 5.30pm and 7pm, and on Wednesdays at 9.30am at St Barnabas' Family Centre.
