Altogether the members of the Clifden Slimming World group are now 1,951lb lighter than they were at the beginning of 2016. The members, who attend the group every week, follow Slimming World’s food optimising eating plan created by the organisation’s team of expert nutritionists, which encourages them to fill up on satisfying foods such as pasta, rice, potatoes, lean meat and fish, pulses, and fruit and veg.

Filling up on lots of satisfying foods means you are never hungry, so you never feel as though you are on a diet. People think losing weight means going to the gym and counting calories, and depriving yourself of food. It is about making healthier choices about food and becoming a bit more active.
