"I was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes three years ago, due to me being well overweight. I also suffered a heart attack a few years ago. When I visited my heart consultant I was advised that I may need open heart surgery if I didn't lose at least a stone in 2 months.

“Nine weeks after joining Slimming World I reached my Club 10 target, losing 10% of my start weight. My blood sugar levels have stabilised and most importantly I haven't had to use any heart sprays for over two months, when I was using them at least three times a day before. I am no longer in the high risk category of having a heart attack. I feel as though Slimming World has been instrumental in giving me back my life.” From Jon Walls, Brighton and Hove

10 great reasons for joining Club10

Club10 can help:

1. Lower blood pressure, reduce your risk of heart disease and stroke; lower your need for medication. Carole-Anne Mansell lowered her blood pressure to a healthy level whilst attending her Slimming World group.

“After about 30 years on medication, my blood pressure has come down and my doctor has taken me off the tablets I was taking.  I am going to be monitored but I’m so thrilled!”

2. Reduce the risk of developing type 2 diabetes. If you have diabetes weight loss could improve your diabetes control and reduce the need for medication. Dee Wood lost a fab 3 stones, and her diabetes is now under control.

“I was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes 6 years ago - I visited my diabetes clinic for a follow up appointment last week. My average blood test had dropped to within the ‘excellent range’. My GP told me that if I carried on doing the things I was, I could easily come off the medication all together."

3. Lower blood cholesterol levels which are associated with increased risk from heart disease. Linda Sibborn was able to reduce her blood pressure and cholesterol to a healthy level thanks to her weight loss.

“I was told that if I lost 10% of my body weight my cholesterol level would reduce - I took this information with a 'pinch of salt' thinking that this was part of a sales pitch - how wrong I was. On achieving my Club 10 I had my cholesterol checked. I’m under a consultant because of my high cholesterol levels - at one time it was above 8 but with daily medication the level dropped slowly to 5.6. When I got my latest test results back I couldn't believe it - 4.2! I’ve now been discharged from my consultant!”

4. Reduce strain on the joints and improve back and joint pain. Thanks to

losing weight with Slimming World, Sian Wembridge has got her bounce back!

“When I was 12st 13lbs heavier I had high blood pressure, thrombophlebitis in both legs and every joint in my body hurt when I moved. As I began to lose weight I started to increase my activity - I was unable to do much before, even walking to the end of the street used to kill me. All my health problems cleared up after losing weight and now my husband calls me Zebedee – every time I sit down I bounce back up again! Need I say more? Food Optimising is my miracle!”

5. Your lungs function better and reduce breathlessness. Simon Rainbird found that he was frequently out of breath before losing weight with Slimming World.

“My life has improved so much since losing weight - the list is endless. Health-wise I get no aches and pains in my joints, I no longer suffer with breathing difficulties and I can walk up a flight of stairs without needing to sit down at the top.”

6. Improve mood and self-esteem. Attending Slimming World groups helped Sam Jarvis to flourish, and she’s now a lot more confident than she used to be.

“I’ve currently lost 2st 1lb and I’m loving every minute of it. My confidence and self esteem has soared and I feel amazing. I’m a happy, confident and healthier person – I’m becoming someone I’ve always dreamed of becoming!”

7. Improve asthma and reduce the need for medication. John King improved his asthma through an incredible weight loss of 16 stones 9lbs.

“Before I joined Slimming World my day-to-day-life was extremely difficult. Just going out into the garden left me breathless and going out and meeting people was difficult because I constantly had to sit down or lean on something to take my weight.

“Now my life is completely different! I can go to family functions, go shopping or dancing with my wife, Joyce, who has been a saint. I can also undertake exercise such as cycling and walking the dog on the heath behind my house. Slimming World has not only given me my health back, it’s given me a life.”

8. Become more mobile, making it easier to be more active. Barrie Walters lost an incredible 6 stones with Slimming World and totally transformed his body and health!

“Before I lost weight I did no exercise at all. Now I run 6-8 miles 3 or 4 times a week, I cycle 25 miles 2 or 3 times a week and I walk my dog 4 miles every day. I’m training for a half marathon in March 2006 and eventually I’d love to compete in triathlons. Six stones lighter I have so much more energy than ever before!”

9. Improve fertility and menstrual problems. After losing weight with Slimming World, Gary Saunders and his wife improved their fertility.

“My wife and I joined Slimming World as part of our attempt to improve our health and our chances of having a baby. We’d been trying to conceive for 4 years with no success. My wife had all the usual checks, a blood test and a scan to make sure everything was working fine. I was checked out too and was found to have low fertility.  Since joining Slimming World we’ve lost three stones in weight between us. All this healthy eating has improved and increased both our fertility and now, the best news of all is my wife is pregnant!”

10. Reduce the risk of certain obesity-related cancers such as cancers of the breast, uterus, cervix, ovaries and gall bladder.
