Melanie has lost weight and feels reel good

Melanie has made her life so much easier by losing two stone, she’s determined to keep it off for good.

Melanie joined Slimming World when her friend and colleague became a consultant back in May. Mel knew she needed to make some changes but doing it alone never really worked for her, Mel is going through the menopause and suffered with plantar fasciitis so knew losing weight may feel tricky but would be worth it.

Mel says I was feeling frustrated that my heel pain was making simple things like walking and getting out and about difficult as it’s weight bearing and I thought losing weight during menopause would be impossible .

Mel is ecstatic to find losing weight has made her plantar fasciitis disappear and is making menopause that bit easier.
