Alice has lost over 85lbs - How veganism, therapy and stopping drinking has helped!

EP54: Alice has lost over 85lbs - How veganism, therapy and stopping drinking has helped!  I am really excited to introduce our latest weight loss warrior Alice, a full time student from Cheshire, UK.  Alice has lost an incredible amount of weight following the Slimming World plan and shares her amazing journey with me.  I learn how being bullied as a child for being overweight contributed to very low self esteem & resulting in an unhealthy relationship with food. I often learn how binge eating and emotional eating stem from childhood trauma such as bullying and this was no different for Alice. It was amazing to hear how Alice started therapy to help improve her mindset and mental health to empower her as part of this inspiring weight loss success story. She shares some great advice to anyone who has maybe considered getting support but has concerns. Alice is also a vegan and we discuss how the rise of processed vegan meals and foods creates a new challenge with managing weight. To be honest I had quite a narrow minded view that vegan eating was very restrictive but having spent time looking at the amazing meals Alice makes and shares on her Instagram, I've realised this is not the case. Make sure you take a look >> Follow Alice - @slimmingally Throughout her journey Alice has proved to herself that she has all the willpower and determination to acheive her goals, and gives some amazing advice about why smaller goals are so powerful.  Thanks to Alison for being our latest Weight Loss Warrior!  Learn more about your ad choices.
