*Results may vary. This is not a guarantee.

Customer Sarah began her incredible New You Plan journey in March. Feeling unhappy with her weight and armed with a recommendation from a friend to try the Plan, she has lost an incredible 2st 11lbs in just 10 weeks! Dropping from a size 18 to a size 12-14, Sarah has lost a total of 45 inches, 8 of which were from her waist and 7 from her hips. In her interview, Sarah shares the heartfelt reasons she began the plan and her tips for success!

Sarah, tell us when you started the plan? What was it that finally led you to getting started?

I started the plan on the 23rd March this year with a view to initially doing it for 10 weeks, finishing on the 1st of June. I have been re-feeding since then, which I had planned to do before our holiday. I initially started as I was at a very low point. I was so unhappy with my weight when the new year started and I was desperate. I had tried so many diets in the past and felt I didn’t know what to do. My father had been ill and towards the end of January, he began deteriorating rapidly. He wasn’t speaking much but he expressed concern at my weight gain for my sake and my children. It was his last piece of fatherly advice to me to turn things around. He sadly passed away a week later. I took to eating more with the grief and felt even more miserable because of it. 6 weeks later I met up with my lifelong friend and she told me about The New You Plan. She herself has lost 2 stone and kept it off. Armed with that and my dad’s words of wisdom I placed my order and I haven’t looked back.

What were you hoping to achieve from The New You Plan?

My aim when I started was to initially lose a few stone before my holiday and then continue again afterwards until I was a healthy weight. Since I’ve seen just how easy the plan is and how weight loss is achievable, my aim has since changed. On September 24th this year I will be married for 10 years and I want to be able to fit back into my dress. It is a size 8/10, but I am only 1 stone and a half away from my wedding weight and for the first time in all those years it finally looks possible.

How has The New You Plan has changed your life?

My life has changed so much since that day I took the leap. I have more energy and confidence. I feel amazing and I can keep up with the kids. I can’t show my dad what I have done, but I know he would be super proud of what I have achieved.

Is there a particular of piece of clothing that you’ve been dying to wear?

My aim was to be able to get comfortably into a bikini for our family holiday and I achieved that. We have just returned from a week’s holiday in Turkey and I felt amazing compared to where I was 10 weeks ago.

Tell us, what New You Plan meals and snacks can you not live without?

My favourite meals by far are the Vegetable Chilli, Cottage Pie turned into Rosties (click here for recipe) and the Luxurious Chocolate Truffa Bar.

Have you tried any of our Water Flavourings? Which is your favourite?

I absolutely love the Orange Zest Water Flavouring, which is even more delicious mixed with a Pineapple Fat Burner. Amazing!

Do you have any tips for staying on track? How did you stop yourself blipping?

My tips for success would be to take start photos and find that picture that you absolutely never want to see again and use it to stay on track! When you feel like giving up get that out and give yourself a talking to. The snacks are great for keeping you going when you need a treat! My favourite are the Cream and Onion Crisps. Finally, remember to keep sipping your water!

We hear all the time about the amount of energy our customers have on the plan. Has this had an impact on your exercise?

I have so much more energy than when I started this plan. I didn’t do much exercise other than toning and using the power plate machine whilst on plan. I have since started home exercise DVDs and plan to start swimming next week now that I’m back from holiday.

Tell us about your re-feed journey. How are you keeping that weight off?

As re-feed was looming I became increasingly nervous about eating again but I quickly found there was no need to. My portion size is so much smaller now and my tastes have changed. I don’t crave the unhealthy snacks that I used to. I opt for healthy options automatically. At the moment I am calorie counting using an app on my phone to help. I plan to go back on the plan in a few weeks for that final weight loss. After that I will use a combination of calorie counting and possibly the 5:2 approach. I use Bars and Shakes in my normal diet now on occasion as I miss them if I don’t have them.

Advice quote

I’m sure there are loads of people reading who just haven’t taken that leap of faith yet. What advice would you give anyone considering starting their New You journey?

My advice to anyone thinking about trying New You would simply be DO IT – you won’t look back! I initially brought a 2 Week Bundle as I didn’t believe I would have the willpower to stick it out. Within 3 days of starting I ordered another month’s supply. I amazed myself and family and friends at my willpower especially starting 1 week before Easter! Believe in yourself and see what you can achieve. You are never alone! Once the compliments start flooding in (and they will), you realise it’s a journey you can complete!
