Rachel Emmett has lost a life-changing seven-and-a-half stone since April last year after joining her local Slimming World group, which is run by Consultant Sue Balaban at Bridlington Rugby club on Queensgate.

Rachel explained: “My reason for losing weight was that one day I would like to start a family and hopefully losing weight will be beneficial. I’m happier, healthier and much more confident now… I have even joined a gym.”

Rachel’s incredible weight loss inspires others…

“I’ve made so many friends at the group and I honestly don’t think I could have done it without their support, motivation and encouragement and with lots of advice and help from my consultant Sue.

“People think to lose weight you have to go hungry – it’s not like that at all with Slimming World though – I love food and it’s never once felt like I was on a diet.”

Sue, who runs the Slimming World group, said: “I feel so privileged to have played a part in Rachel’s transformation. She has come so far over the last year and her determination and motivation is amazing and I couldn’t be more proud of everything she has achieved – she is a real inspiration to the whole group.”
