Judith Cook is set to share her confidence boosting slimming secrets

Judith Cook joined her local Slimming World group in Preston 7 years ago and dropped from 11st 5lb to 9st 5. and found a whole load of new activities including a skydive last year with her 89 year old father.

Now, she has trained as a Consultant for Slimming World, the UK and Ireland’s largest group-based weight loss organisation, at their national training academy in Derbyshire. Members at the group are getting ready to welcome Judith as their new Consultant when she takes over the group on 13th November 2025.

She says: “When I first joined Slimming World as a very nervous member, I never dreamed that I would end up doing a skydive never mind helping other people to lose weight but now I just can’t wait to get started. After losing 2st and completing my training, it’s a privilege for me to be able to pass on the experience, insight and understanding that helped me, so that I can give my members the support they need to get to target.

“Support is really the most important thing. It all starts with feeling that you’re not alone. I couldn’t have lost 2 stone without the weekly help, encouragement and understanding of my own Consultant and group. As someone who has lost weight myself, I know the challenges people can face, which is why, along with the group, I will be there to support every one of my members all the way to their chosen target weight. Setting targets, sharing recipes and other ideas, and working together as a group to overcome challenges and celebrate success is so important to a successful journey. That’s why, at my Slimming World group, there’ll be tons of support, encouragement, fun and laughter.

“Before joining Slimming World, I’d tried so many different ways to lose weight, but I’d always get tired of restricting what I ate. I thought I was destined to struggle with my weight for the rest of my life, but when I came to Slimming World it was different. I never felt like I was on a diet. The health eating plan encourages you to eat lots of tasty, filling foods like pasta, rice, potatoes and lean meat and fish, you’re never hungry and so you don’t feel like you’re missing out.

“Slimming World isn’t just about changing what you eat. Becoming more active is important too. Our Body Magic physical activity support programme helps members build activity into their daily routine at their own pace. Everything counts from walking to gardening to washing the car. I love country walks and running.”

Judith’s Slimming World group will be held at Our Lady and St Edwards Fulwood every Thursday at 7:30 am and 9:00am from 13th November 2025. For more information or to join Judith’s group either pop along on 13th November 2025 or call her on 07913663494 .
