St James Slimming World Exeter

This is my new page for all up to date information

What is stopping you from joining or returning to our lovely group.
Come and join us at St James Church hall on Mount pleasant Rd each Wed at 5.30pm.
We have an amazing offer for any returning members

I’m getting lots of messages from past members wanting to come back to our Slimming World group but who are worried for one reason or another, so let me put your mind at ease because I'm sure you're not alone.

You might be saying to yourself:

💥‘No way, I haven't been to group for ages. I couldn't go back now.’
💥'I've put weight back on, I can’t go back.’
💥'I've joined so many times now, I'm worried about what everyone will think.’
💥’I'm so embarrassed to go back now’.

These feelings are what keep us from achieving our dreams, they keep us away from group and away from all the support we need to succeed.

So please be reassured that in our Slimming World Groups, you will be welcomed back with warmth, care and respect.
No matter how the past couple of weeks, months or years have been for you, we're only ever looking forward to a positive future.

If you’re ready to give your weight loss dreams another shot, pick yourself up, dust yourself down and prove to yourself (as nobody else really matters and we're honestly our own worst critic) what you're truly made of for summer, take that decision right now!
Let this be the summer you become the slimmer, happier you 💖

Sometimes the starting is the most difficult part!

🤔I know exactly how difficult it can be

🤔I know that no matter how hard you’ve tried in the past, nothing has ever worked

🤔I know that you feel trapped

🤔I know that you’d love to look in the mirror and love the person looking back at you

🕺🏻I also know that the first step is the hardest to make

🕺🏻I also know that this truly works! Im just one of many many people that can stand there as living proof

🕺🏻I also know that you have to want something so bad, it sets you free

🕺🏻I also know that reaching a point of looking in the mirror and actually feeling great most days. Is one of the most amazing feelings in the world

I know all of this because I’ve been in both places! I’ve been to depths of despair and self hatred, but can also look back with the most enormous amount of pride ever, that I have achieved exactly what I set out to do.

And so can you….

Come and join our friendly group on a Wednesday evening at 5.30pm

Join us on Wed at 5.30pm at St James Church Hall.
We have an amazing friendly group who support and help each other to achieve fantastic results

😍 TASTE SENSATION 😍
It’s hard to believe that a big bowl of penne or spaghetti can be Free on Slimming World – yet it’s true, pasta is one of the Free Foods that our members can enjoy to their hearts’ content, without any need to weigh, measure or count.
This delicious vegetarian dish is so easy, too. You could serve it with a big salad or your favourite veg for a tasty weeknight dinner (with leftovers for the next day’s lunch, if there are any!). We’ve jazzed up our baked feta pasta recipe with onion, garlic, thyme and fresh basil, but if you have the key ingredients of feta cheese, tomatoes and pasta, then you’re good to go…

🙌 Hands up if you’d love to have someone in your life who always has your best interests at heart, accepts you for who you are, and supports you to reach your full potential? Well, you don’t need a fairy godmother to conjure up that magic person – it’s you 🧚! Nobody talks to you more than you talk to yourself – so what you say matters. But sadly, on top of criticising ourselves for mistakes, many of us also attack ourselves for who we are, calling ourselves names or saying that we’re ‘hopeless’. As well as undermining our mood and self-esteem, this self-criticism can undermine our motivation to lose weight, and make us more likely to seek comfort in food. 👎
So, if there is one gift truly worth giving yourself right now, it’s to treat yourself with kindness and compassion. ❤ It’s a gift that keeps giving – boosting happiness, reducing stress levels, and supercharging your weight loss in the process. And it’s a gift you’ll find in my group. ✅ Self-compassion has been at the heart of Slimming World’s unique approach to weight loss right from the very beginning, over 50 years ago! In my group you’ll also discover that planning and preparing your favourite Food Optimising meals for yourself, then taking the time to really taste and enjoy them, isn’t an indulgence – it’s a wonderful way to practise self-compassion in your life and a really good way to treat yourself with kindness.
If you’re ready to start your journey towards self-kindness, come and join on of my friendly groups
