Listen to your body,
let go of the guilt
For years, I felt trapped in a cycle of dieting, disappointment, and frustration
Listen to Ronnie's episode
For years, I felt trapped in a cycle of dieting, disappointment, and frustration. I had tried every diet imaginable—each time with the same result. A few pounds would come off, but before I knew it, they’d be back, bringing a few extra with them. It was exhausting, disheartening, and frankly, I felt like a lost cause.
At my heaviest, I was also battling diabetes, and the weight wasn’t just a number on the scale—it was affecting my health in a very real way. But despite knowing this, I couldn’t seem to make lasting changes. The dieting mindset had its claws in me, and I didn’t know how to break free.
Then, I found Slimpod.
"At first, I was skeptical. Could simply listening to something really change my relationship with food? I had spent years fighting my body—what difference could this possibly make? But deep down, I knew I had nothing to lose, so I gave it a go."
The Turning Point
What I didn’t expect was that it took time. In fact, it was 18 months before my body even started to let go of the weight. That sounds like a long time, doesn’t it? And I won’t lie—it was frustrating. But something inside me told me to keep going. I had seen so many success stories in the Slimpod Facebook group, and I thought, “If it’s working for them, why not me?”
I stopped thinking of food in terms of “good” and “bad.” I stopped stressing about every bite I took. Instead, I started listening—really listening—to my body. What did I actually want to eat? What made me feel good? What left me feeling sluggish and unwell?
And then, almost like magic, things began to shift.
The Transformation: Letting Go of Control to Gain It
The first thing I noticed wasn’t the weight loss—it was the way I felt about food. The constant battle, the guilt, the obsession—it started to fade. I wasn’t using willpower to resist cravings. Instead, I just didn’t want the same foods anymore.
I remember one day, standing in line for coffee, eyeing the blueberry muffins I used to love. But something inside me said, “You don’t really want that.” And for the first time in my life, I didn’t have to fight myself. I just walked away without a second thought.
Slowly but surely, the weight started to come off. Three stone later, I feel like a completely different person—not just physically, but mentally. And the best part? I’m free.
Freedom from Dieting, Freedom from Diabetes
The biggest victory for me wasn’t the weight—it was my health. In September 2023, I was officially taken off my diabetes medication, it’s just totally down to changing my eating habits and losing the weight. I hadn’t been on a strict diet, I hadn’t been counting calories or depriving myself—I had simply changed the way I thought about food.
I would advise anybody with any sort of diabetes to give it a try because it works.
Now, when I go to the chemist and they ask if I’m on any medication, I can say, “No.” That, for me, is everything.
My Message To You
If you’re where I was—feeling hopeless, stuck, and out of control—I want you to know there is another way. Slimpod isn’t a diet. It’s not about restriction or willpower. It’s about rewiring your brain so that food no longer has power over you.
It took me 18 months before I saw physical changes, but looking back, my transformation started the moment I decided to let go of dieting, trust the process and relax. It was only once I relaxed, that I felt like I was taking control. I was in control of what I put in my mouth, of what I wanted to eat, and what I wanted my life to be like
If you’re waiting for a sign, this is it. Keep going. Be patient. Trust yourself.
Listen to your body,
let go of the guilt

From Struggle to Freedom: My Slimpod Journey

At first, I was skeptical. Could simply listening to something really change my relationship with food? I had spent years fighting my body—what difference could this possibly make? But deep down, I knew I had nothing to lose, so I gave it a go.
The Waiting Game: Learning to Trust the Process
What I didn’t expect was that it took time. In fact, it was 18 months before my body even started to let go of the weight. That sounds like a long time, doesn’t it?

Living Life on My Terms
These days, food isn’t my enemy. It’s not a source of stress or control—it’s just food. If I want a treat, I have it, and I move on. If I don’t, I don’t. My body tells me what I need, and I trust it.
Exercise has become a part of my life, too. I never thought I’d be someone who willingly went to the gym, but here I am, going twice a week and loving it! I even go with my daughter, something that brings us closer together.
