Joan Clarke joined her local Slimming World group seven years ago. “I’d tried so many different ways to lose weight in the past, but I’d always get tired of restricting what I ate," she said. "When I came to Slimming World it was different. I never felt like I was on a diet. The eating plan encourages you to eat lots of tasty, filling foods like pasta, rice, potatoes and lean meat and fish, you’re never hungry and so you don’t feel like you’re missing out."
She has now trained as a consultant for Slimming World. “When I first joined as a member, I never dreamed that I would end up helping others to lose weight but having completed 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," she added.
“Support is the most important thing. It all starts with feeling that you’re not alone. 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. At my Slimming World group, there’ll be tons of support, encouragement and fun.”
Joan Clarke’s new Slimming World group will be relaunching at 9.30am, 5.30pm, and 7pm on Monday September 23 in the Raheen Woods Hotel, Athenry.
