HUDDERSFIE­LD CONSULTANT­S CELEBRATE IN STYLE WITH CHATTY MAN ALAN CARR

-

A group of Slimming World Consultant­s from Huddersfie­ld celebrated their groups’ successes by meeting chat show host and comedian, Alan Carr.

Alan, a well-loved TV personalit­y, co-hosted the annual Slimming World Awards with the organisati­on’s founder and chair Margaret Miles-Bramwell OBE. Margaret opened her first group in 1969 and over the last 50 years Slimming World has become the nation’s favourite way to lose weight*, supporting almost one million slimmers.

The team, who run Slimming World groups in Huddersfie­ld, were delighted to get a chance to meet Alan. Julie Sharples said it was the perfect end to a fantastic year for the Huddersfie­ld Slimming World groups. “The members at our group make me burst with pride, not only have they seen big changes on the scales, many have improved their health and completely changed their lives too.

“For many people, taking that first step into a Slimming World group takes a huge amount of courage. But they’re always certain of a warm welcome and introducti­on to our fabulously flexible eating plan which means you’re never hungry while you’re losing weight. And when you join a group and stay each week members support each other with motivation, tips and ideas, cheering each other on and boosting each other to face any challenges. "Watching people grow in confidence each week and take on things that they didn’t think possible before losing weight absolutely amazes me. I feel proud of the small part I play in supporting people to achieve their dreams and to celebrate alongside them when they do, so we were honoured to represent the Huddersfie­ld groups at the Slimming World Awards. Alan was left in awe of the difference Slimming World makes to people’s lives too.”

Joanne Kain continues: “Last year was our 50th year, which was full of celebratio­ns and successes. We’ve supported more people than ever to achieve their dreams and we’re so excited about what 2020 has in store.”

“For anyone who may be thinking of taking that step to lose weight and improve their health this New Year I truly believe that joining a local Slimming World group is the best way for people to learn new habits and make long-term healthy changes. At the Huddersfie­ld groups they’ll discover a whole world of support to help them achieve their dreams and stay slim for life - with lots of fun along the way too!”
