A mum of two who was unable to keep up with her children and lost sleep over her body size and health has ditched half her weight in a year. Jules Turnock, 48, says she was going to sleep and waking up worried about her 23stone weight, and decided to join Slimming World.
She now weighs 11st 4lbs. Jules said: "In summer 2020, I realised that I was going to sleep – and then waking up – worrying about my weight. It was absolutely exhausting and I knew I needed to do something about it.
"It had reached the point where there was no part of my life that was unaffected. My confidence was shattered and I hated how I looked. I’d have happily become a total recluse. My body hurt and I struggled to keep up with my two young daughters, Amy and Jessica, so I was missing out on family life."
