Nurse Mary Roche Lost Over 4st

Nurse Mary Roche had a wake-up call when she saw a photograph of herself back in November 2012. “It was a shock alright, but it didn’t really tell me anything new. I hated looking after patients knowing I was, honestly, obese.” Mary did lots of research online, and chose Unislim because of its friendlieness and support. “There was also a six week offer, so I promised myself to give it my all during those first six weeks.” Mary joined Unislim in Douglas Co.Cork. Mary lost a stone with leader Ber’s encouragement and guidance. “I was hooked and now I wouldn’t miss my Tuesday morning class fo anything. ” Mary had learned alot from Unislim. “I’ve discovered how important it is to stay hydrated all the time, and I’ve become very aware of cooking my meals and bringing my own food into the hospital. My father, whom I live with, has also benefited from these meals, and he says he’s seeing a whole new me.” Exercise is also important to Mary who walks daily, even at the end of a long night shift. “I’ll do a 20 minute fast walk, and make the most of the time. And I want to start dance classes. Getting to my target weight is such an achievement, and I cannot wait to start shopping for new clothes.”
