Shirley lost five stone in 18 months with Weigh Lighter
“I lost 5 stone in 18 months with Weigh Lighter and I feel fantastic!” says Shirley Gordon from Newtown Road, Wexford. “I have done something really good for my health and wellbeing, and I can now move much better, am no longer sluggish, and have lots of energy to run around and play with my children.”
“At my heaviest I was fedup, drained and unhappy. I was constantly tired and was even out of breath after walking.”
Shirley lost her weight with Frances Whelan at the weekly Weigh Lighter Class at St. Joseph’s Club Community Centre, Wexford.
Shirley explains, “I joined Weigh Lighter because of all the positive things I was hearing about the programme, and about what a great motivator Frances was. If I had a bad week Frances was fantastic at picking me up and motivating me to carry on. It was just what I need to succeed.”
Class Leader and founder of Weigh Lighter, Frances Whelan has over 25 years experience with helping people lose weight. She is renowned for her passion for helping members, her understanding nature, and exceptional ability to motivate members’ week on week . Frances is now leading all weekly classes across the County.
Frances says, “I believe receiving personal encouragement and support along the way is vital to success when trying to lose weight the right way. While providing this support to members there is a unique balance to be struck, between being sensitive and understanding, and then pushing and motivating them because you know that’s what they need... after 25 years of experience, that’s my speciality!”
Shirley says, “Now 5 stone lighter, I have a new found confidence. It is wonderful to receive so many compliments from friends and family, and I look and feel great in whatever I wear. Before I lost my weight I didn’t even have the confidence to go out for a walk with my children, whereas now I do and wear things I would never have dreamed of when I was at my heaviest!”
