I'm 56 years old and an IT manager by profession. In my spare time I enjoy browsing the web to enlarge my mind, walking to keep fit and a certain amount of Genealogy.

In 2012 after a check up at the doctors I was told I needed to lose three stone. This sounded impossible at the time but a couple of ladies at work were attending Slimming World so I thought I would try it. I was a bit nervous first time but they were so friendly I took to it quickly and loved it. In seven months I had lost all of my excess weight and was able to run properly at last. I am now a fanatic, but not a consultant because I don't drive, and its the best thing that ever happened to me. As I mentioned I've been a target member since Dec 2012 and fully intend to stay that way.
