Woman launches Slimming World group in Bourne after losing two stone

A slimmer who lost two stone is using her success to help others change their lives by launching her own group.

Wendy Canham joined Slimming World online before transferring to her local group in Spalding.

There, she learned how to follow a healthy eating plan without giving up her favourite meals and how to build an active routine at her own pace.

She said the group’s programme has helped her become more active than ever – even running a half marathon in Copenhagen.

After training as a Slimming World consultant, she is now preparing to launch her own group at The Derby and Joan Hall, in South Street, Bourne.

Wendy said: “When I first joined Slimming World as a member, I never dreamed that I would end up helping other people to lose weight but now I just can’t wait to get started.

“Support is really the most important thing. It all starts with feeling that you’re not alone.

“I couldn’t have lost two stone without the weekly help, encouragement and understanding of my own consultant and group.

“Before joining Slimming World, I’d tried so many different ways to lose weight, but I’d always get tired of restricting what I ate.

“I thought I was destined to struggle with my weight for the rest of my life, but when I came to Slimming World it was different. I never felt like I was on a diet.”

Wendy’s Slimming World group will kick off on Monday, November 10 at 7pm and run every Monday.
