Bride-to-Be Loses 4st 7.5lbs & Wins £1,000: Naomi’s Inspiring Transformation
Naomi, a recent winner of The New You Plan’s Transformation Challenge, shares her inspiring journey of losing 4 stone 7.5lbs in just 17 weeks. In this interview with Nicola from customer services, Naomi discusses her motivations, experiences, and the positive impact of her weight loss. Her story serves as an inspiration for others looking to transform their lives and potentially win in this year’s £52K Transformation Story Challenge.
From Discomfort to Determination: Naomi’s Weight Loss Journey
Nicola: What led you to start the plan?
Naomi: I wasn’t feeling very good about myself. I gained a lot of weight with my last pregnancy with my son and was just very uncomfortable being in my own skin. I’ve tried other diet companies in the past with no luck, but never The New You Plan. It was only by chance looking online that I saw you, looked at all the reviews, and thought, “Oh, this looks different. This looks good.” So I decided to give it a go and 17 weeks later, I’m over 4.5st lighter.
Nicola: How did you find your first week on the plan?
Naomi: I didn’t struggle at all. To be honest, I haven’t struggled at all throughout the whole plan. It’s been surprisingly easy to follow and it fits into my routine with my boys that I didn’t even think about it.
Nicola: How has losing the weight affected how you feel about yourself?
Naomi: I feel so much more confident now. Now that I can actually see the weight loss, I just feel so much better. I think, “Oh, now I actually look good for once.” Fitting back into the clothes I had from years ago feels amazing, and my confidence and self-esteem have just shot up now.
Embracing a New Lifestyle: Lessons and Favourites
Nicola: What has being on the plan taught you?
Naomi: I definitely have found that I don’t use food for comfort now. I’ve had to find other ways to deal with stress rather than turning to food, which was my instinct before the plan. Now I think, “No, I’m not doing that. I’m doing well. I need to find other coping mechanisms.”
Nicola: Do you have any favourite meals or snacks?
Naomi: I always have one of the pots every single day. I absolutely love all of them apart from the bolognese. The curry one especially is my favourite. And the bars, all the bars are fantastic.
Nicola: What’s been your favourite non-scale victory?
Naomi: My engagement ring – I had to have it downsized by two sizes. My lovely fiancé proposed before I started, and after about one month on plan, I noticed it was just sliding off. So, I recently had to have it downsized by two sizes.
A Future Filled with Confidence: Naomi’s Next Chapter
Nicola: What are you looking forward to about reaching your goal?
Naomi: I’m getting married next year, so knowing that I get to fit into, hopefully, my dream dress is something I’m really looking forward to. I feel good now, but I know I’ll feel even better once I reach my goal. And I know I’ll get there.
Nicola: Have you started looking at any dresses?
Naomi: Yes, I went a couple of weeks ago, and the style suited me, which I was happy about. But then I also think, once I get nearer to my goal, I could try more figure-hugging styles. I might not even like them, but it would be nice to know that I can try them on and not feel like, “Oh, no. This is horrendous.”
Nicola: Have you received any compliments that have really meant a lot to you?
Naomi: A lot of the mums at baby and toddler groups I go to with my boys have noticed. Even today, someone said, “Wow, you’ve shrunk.” And I can fit in my other half’s jumpers now! So I was wearing his, and he was like, “That’s not yours.” I went, “No, it’s not, but I could fit in it, so it’s mine now.”
Nicola: What advice would you give to yourself when you first started?
Naomi: Don’t be so hard on yourself if you have a blip because you’re human. My mentality this time was, “I can have that, and then I can get back on plan, and it’s fine.” It was a bit of a game-changer with the mindset. You can still enjoy yourself within reason, but you’ve got the plan there to help you to get back on track again.
