Slimmer drops six dress sizes
Sharon Godrich Dixon joined the Tuesday morning Slimming world group in November 2022 to lose 5 stone to date and dropped six dress sizes.
Her turning point was the moment she was trying to get up a step stool and couldn’t get her other leg up on it.

She said that walking through the door of her first Slimming World meeting was one of the hardest things she had ever had to do:
"I was nervous and worried that if this doesn’t work what next,” she said, “I was miserable the way I was living at the time.”
Sharon took on the Slimming Worlds Food Optimising plan, and said she was taken by the amount of food available to her.

Now Sharon has reached 5stone weight loss and she is now on the waiting list for the hip replacement she needs, improved her high blood pressure, helped with her mental health and her sleep apnea has also improved.
Karen Fereday, consultant for the Horncastle group, said that Sharon has done “amazingly well”.
