EP70 - Wanting to be a healthy, happy mum - Claire's Weight Loss Success Story When Claire said she had been worried about being an embarrassment to her son, I could hear the worry in her voice at the prospect of it being true if she hadn't of decided to change her life. My special guest today found herself rationalising her declining health and weight gain after having a beautiful baby just before lockdown. Take-aways became a regular habit, needing clothes 2 sizes bigger and worsening Asthma meant that Claire had started on a path that was leading her to life of low self confidence and poor health. Like many of my guests, Claire reached a point where she was concerned for her future and fed up with being overweight. It was impacting her self esteem and ability to do the normal daily activities a young mum would need to be doing. After phoning her mum for support. Claire discovered Slimming World and attended her first session. "Being in the group just felt like a nice, big, warm hug." Claire told me, smiling into the microphone as she remembered that first day. From there she went on to lose an incredible 3 stone and reclaimed her heath and self confidence. Claire shares other areas in which her life has improved including a new found love for fitness. I hear about "Clubbercise" which includes glow sticks, amazing music and dancing your way to a healthier body. Another major success in Claire's journey has been her decision to help others and become a Slimming World Consultant. In our conversation I hear about the process of Claire taking this step, encouraged by her Consultant Jane because she felt Claire would be a great leader to help others.
