Heather's Story
Former music teacher Heather Dawson was delighted when her daughter announced her engagement, but panicked about her 13st figure. She lost half a stone for the wedding, but hated being photographed in her size 18 ‘Mother of the Bride’ dress. After joining Rosemary Conley Online she shed 2½ stone.
Heather, 62, puts her initial weight gain down to comfort eating: ’I fell into the habit of cream cakes at break times and snacks in the evening.’ Embarking on a new, more physically active career as a park ranger only increased her appetite – and her weight! Her loose-fitting uniform concealed her increasing pounds, but she rarely made the effort to dress up as she could no longer fit into her other clothes.
Rosemary Conley Online was the perfect choice for Heather: ‘I liked that I could access the site whenever I wanted to, and follow the exercises in private when it suited me.’ She swapped her bacon-sandwich breakfasts for healthy cereals, her lunchtime butter-and-mayonnaise-laden sandwiches for rice cakes with low-fat cheese, reduced her portion sizes at dinner and snacked on fruit instead of cake.
Now a trim 10½ stone, Heather says: ‘It’s wonderful to go clothes shopping and not feel embarrassed.’
