I joined a class 2 years ago but had to stop going on medical grounds, but to be honest I dont think I would have carried on going as it wasn't 'my cup of tea'! So, when, after a surgery & I had put on even more weight I decided to do it from home I lost 38 pounds, with the help on Minimins of course! Anywasy, Im back again after putting on 2 stone after yet another surgery & again am doing it from home......my point is, if you have the motivation, are truely focused & have support from family, friends, peers, minimins etc you will lose the weight......& also remember to enjoy Slimming World!
