I used to be able to lose weight easily when I was younger – however the older I got, the harder it became. My weight kept creeping up and up and I was feeling depleted and defeated of all willpower. I wanted to lose weight but felt I didn’t have the strength to stick with to a diet. My son was getting married in 8 months and I had been trying to lose weight on my own. I would start a diet almost every day with such good intentions but by that night, I would be eating junk food, my confidence and willpower were at zero.

I saw my Consultant Theresa’s weight loss story on TV and immediately googled The 1:1 Diet. I was feeling desperate, and thought if it worked for her, surely it could work for me. I was willing to give it a go – but to be totally honest, even when I signed up to The 1:1 Diet, I was still feeling half-hearted and didn’t think I would last a week.

I was 58 when I commenced The 1:1 Diet, it was the best thing I have done for myself. I found the food really delicious with plenty of food options. Not only did I last the week, but I was also able to stay with it. I found my willpower and confidence returning, as my weight slowly reduced, I was able to achieve my goal weight with the outstanding support from my Consultant. I was amazed that what seemed impossible became possible.
