"I’m Laura, I’m 36, from Clitheroe and I never thought I’d be dealing with joint pain at my age.
When I look back, I can see when it all started. At university, I put on a lot of weight. My diet was terrible, I drank most nights, and I hardly moved unless I had to. At the time, I didn’t think much about it. Everyone around me was doing the same.
After I graduated, I went straight into a 9 to 5. The drinking slowed down, but the habits stayed. Long days at work meant I didn’t have the energy to cook properly, so I grabbed whatever was quick. I told myself I didn’t have time to exercise. I would wake up, work, come home, eat, watch TV, and repeat.
Over the years, the weight piled on. Slowly at first, then faster. My knees started aching when I climbed stairs. I would get out of breath walking up hills. I was 36 but felt twice my age.
One morning at work, I realised I was avoiding going to the kitchen on the top floor because it meant taking the stairs. It hit me how far things had gone. I was living in a body that felt like it was giving up on me, and I had done it to myself.
I had tried diets before, but I never stuck to them. I needed something that would actually change the way I thought about food and exercise. That was when I found the Extreme Weight Loss Complete Transformation package from Clear Minds.
I’ll be honest, I found it difficult at first. I didn’t think it was working. I gave up a couple of times, telling myself it was just another thing I’d fail at. But then I noticed something. The urge to snack all the time was fading. I was walking past the biscuit tin without even thinking about it. That gave me the push I needed to give the sessions another proper go, and this time I did them consistently.
After a couple of weeks of sticking with it, I realised I was eating less without feeling like I was forcing it. The cravings weren't as strong. I was making better choices without the usual internal battle.
The biggest change was in my mindset. I stopped seeing exercise as a chore and started looking for ways to move more. I began taking the stairs at work, walking on my lunch break, and doing short workouts at home. My knees started hurting less, my energy came back, and the weight began to come off steadily.
Now, I feel like I’ve got my life back. I can take the stairs without thinking twice. I go out with friends without worrying about keeping up. I feel younger, healthier, and more confident than I have in years.
It wasn’t just about losing weight. It was about breaking the habits I had carried since university and finally feeling in control of my health."
