Pamela’s success story can inspire weight loss journey
A slimming champion who shed over three stones is set to use her success to help others and carve out a new career for herself.
Pamela Murray who has changed her life by losing three- and- a- half stones is using her success to become a Slimming World consultant in Ayr.
Pamela has always struggled with her weight from her teens, tried all types of diets along the way but always returned to her old habit of snacking on crisps and take - aways and really not eating healthily at all.
Pamela said that when she was diagnosed with diabetes in 2005, the same year her father passed away from the same disease, she realised it was time to do something about her health.
Pamela said: “In 2012 a close family member of mine had a stroke aged 45 and he alerted me that I needed to change my lifestyle as I now had a four- year- old daughter to consider.”
This proved to be the turning point for Pamela and she joined her local Slimming World class that week.
Pamela says that in 14 months she had lost threeanda- half stones and reached her target.
She had swapped crisps and take- aways for fruit and takeaways.
She is now healthier and happier than ever.
“Obesity is becoming such a huge issue across the UK,” said Pamela.
“When I joined Slimming World six years ago, I never dreamed that one day I would be helping others to lose weight, but now I just cant wait to get started.
“After losing weight and completing my training its a privilege for me to help and support my members to achieve their own weight loss goals and get to that target they dream of.
“If it wasn’t for the support of the group and my consultant I would have struggled and having been there and lost weight I do understand the challenges that we can all face when on our journey.
“Along with my group I will be there to support each and every one of my members to achieve their target.
“I still learn new things and ideas from other members every week.”
After achieving a happier, healthier, and more confident outlook, Pamela has now trained as a Slimming World consultant and is waiting to welcome loads of lovely members.
People can go along to Pamela’s Slimming World group at the Railway Club 20 James Street, Ayr on Tuesday, April 3 at 5.30pm and 7.30pm.
