Willingdon Slimming World Consultant celebrates helping members lose more than 53st
A weight loss expert from Willingdon is celebrating 4 months of running the Willingdon Slimming World group, where she already helped 40 members of the local community lose more than 53st and build lasting healthy habits. Zoe Jessop, who started the weight loss group in 3rd January 2026, Zoe says: “Running my group the past 4 months has been a wonderful whirlwind of welcoming new members, settling into our supportive weekly group sessions and seeing some fabulous weight loss results too, crowning our 1st target member and celebrating countless awards” she added “Now I want to go bigger and better for the rest of 2026 and help even more members achieve their goals on and off the scales!”
Zoe lost 5st 4lbs with Slimming World herself before becoming a self-employed Consultant. She maintained her weight loss for almost a year so far and says she set to keep it that way. “My life reach a point I simply couldn’t ignore. My heath was suffering, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, daily tablets, constant fear and then I lost my mum suddenly, The heartbreak changed everything. I needed to take control of my life, my heath, and my future in her honour. And here is the real truth, this was my 100th time joining Slimming World .... and my last. On 4th September 2024 i walked through the Slimming World doors again, nervous, emotional, doubting my self. But i made one promise, I chose a class I could attend every single week, and from that moment on, I’ve never looked back. In just one year I lost 5 stones 4llb, but the transformation inside me was even bigger, my confidence returned, my spark cam back, my world opened up again. The biggest victory of all, no more high blood pressure, no more high cholesterol and no more medication. My body healed because I finally gave it the chance. Zoe’s weight loss journey inspired her to become a part time Slimming World Consultant to help others achieve their weight loss goals. She says: “It’s so special running my own Slimming World group and supporting my members with their weight losses. It hasn’t always been easy as losing weight isn’t easy and supporting people to change long-standing habits to achieve their goals is a challenge at times – but it’s always been worth it. Seeing them week by week reach each milestone is incredible. I truly believe I have the best, most rewarding, role in the world. Zoe welcomes anyone wanting to lose weight to her group, including anyone taking weight loss injections, for support to build healthy habits and keep the weight off long term.
