Slimmer wants to help others change their lives
A slimmer who improved her life by losing over a stone is now helping other people change their lives and achieve their weight loss dreams too.
Kayleigh Wilson, from Neilston, joined her local Slimming World group in Barrhead and dropped from 11st 7lbs to 10st 6lbs. Determined to help support other people like her, Kayleigh has now trained as a consultant for Slimming World.
Members at the group are getting ready to welcome Kayleigh as their new consultant when she takes over the group later this month.
The latest government figures reveal that around one in four adults are obese and it is estimated that, by 2034, this will increase to one in three, and Kayleigh says her new role has never been more important.
She said:“Obesity is becoming such a huge issue across the UK. 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.
QAfter losing weight and completing my training, it’s a privilege for me to be able to pass on the experience, insight and understanding that helped me, so that I can give my members the support they need to get to target.
“Support is really the most important thing. It all starts with feeling that you’re not alone. I couldn’t have lost weight without the weekly help, encouragement and understanding of my own consultant and group.
“As someone who has lost weight myself I know the challenges people can face, which is why, along with the group, I will be there to support every one of my members all the way to their chosen target weight.”
Kayleigh says she can’t wait for the new challenges running her own business will bring, adding:“I feel like I’ve got a brand new career and I can’t wait for my new group to run now!” Kayleigh’s will be held at St Thomas Church Hall every Tuesday at 5.30pm.
