Heidi's Story "I had always been a size 12 in my late teens and was certainly not as toned as I’d like to be but I’d never really had an issue with my weight, I ate in moderation and walked the dog. From 2010 to 2012 some things happened with my health and work which meant that the stress took it’s toll and I tipped the scales at 13st 13 - I had previously never been heavier than 11st! I was desperate to lose the weight but I would lose a few lb, only to put them back on plus more. By April 2012 I got engaged and was eager to book my wedding. I had one problem... I was still a size 16. Thinking I was at last chance saloon having tried gyms, slim fast and other fad diets. I got in touch with Helen who started me the first week of May. No calorie counting just healthy eating, in my first week I lost 2lb and the week after another 2lb and it didn't go back on :D After my first 4 weeks I’d lost 8lb and was hungry for more from May to November I’d gone from 13st 13 to 9st 10 and clothes size 18/16 to a 10! When I joined I never thought I’d see the day I was 10st 10 again. The HS studio is fantastic it’s like a little family we all know each other by name and you know if you miss one of your regular classes you’re missed so that is another incentive to keep going. I now lose/maintain weight but feel like I’m eating loads. I have no regrets and cannot preach enough if you’re that person who gets there summer shorts out and feels upset and down in the dumps when they don't fit - do something about it you really wont regret it!" |
