A mother of five from Caernarfon, Lisa Williams, has made an incredible transformation by shedding nine stone after facing a health scare during her last pregnancy. Lisa, 35, had long struggled with her weight but reaching a point where she was diagnosed with diabetes and had to inject insulin twice a day was a turning point for her. Feeling terrified by the diagnosis, she knew she had to make a change for her health.
It was on her way home from a doctor’s appointment when Lisa spotted a Slimming World poster that caught her attention. She decided to join the local group and that decision marked the beginning of her weight loss journey. Joining Slimming World, with the support of Consultant Ffion and the group members, enabled Lisa to make significant dietary changes and adopt a healthier lifestyle.

Learning about the Slimming World Food Optimising plan, she discovered a way to manage her diabetes while still enjoying delicious and satisfying meals. The camaraderie and shared experiences in the group provided her with inspiration and motivation to stay committed to her weight loss goals.
With dedication and support from Slimming World, Lisa successfully shed nine stone, going from a size 28 to 14.
