Cheadle: When Martha Rose noticed her weight creeping up, she knew she had to do something. At 16 stone, she found out she was pre-diabetic, and it was affecting her chances of getting pregnant.
This 36-year-old mum from Stockport was so worried that she looked into weight loss injections and even got on a waiting list. But while she waited, she decided to take charge and joined a local Slimming World group.
The results were incredible! Martha lost an amazing 5 stone 5 pounds, bringing her down to 10 stone 6 pounds. It was a total game-changer for her, both physically and mentally.
“I used to feel so confident, but I lost that part of myself,” she shared. “Being six stone overweight really took a toll on my mental health.”
She avoided photos with her kids and dreaded mirrors. Martha realized she needed to make big changes to be a happy, healthy role model for her children.
“I was desperate to lose weight and was on the waitlist for those pricey injections. By the time they contacted me, I had already lost so much weight that I wasn’t even a candidate anymore!”
Martha credits her success to following Slimming World’s Extra Easy Plan, which lets you eat unlimited lean meats, veggies, and fruits while keeping an eye on higher-calorie foods.
Her husband even joined her on this journey and lost three stone himself! Martha believes a big part of her success was changing her mindset. “This isn’t just a diet; it’s a lifestyle change,” she said.
She had tried Slimming World many times before but never stuck with it because she saw it as a race. “This time, I focused on making real changes instead of just losing a few pounds,” she explained.
Even now, she sometimes struggles with maintaining her weight, but she reminds herself that it’s a lifelong journey. “I just try to be kind to myself,” she added.
Now, Martha feels amazing. She no longer shies away from photos or her reflection. “I can fit into a size 12 again! I feel happy and healthy,” she said. “I’m back to being the woman my husband fell in love with 10 years ago.”
Her recent health screenings showed everything is normal, and she’s proud of her achievements. “I’m at my lowest weight in 11 years, and I never thought I could do it!”
