It was great to join Jess and local Slimming World members at the Remembrance Hall in Badsey this morning.
Slimming World is the UK’s largest lifestyle-based weight management programme, and it was good to talk to Jess and members about their own weight-loss and healthy lifestyle journeys and also discuss the recent rise in the uptake of weight loss drugs and the role they should play in the health and well-being agenda.
It was also fascinating to learn about the variety of food options available under the programme.
Around two-thirds (64%) of adults in England are living with obesity or are overweight.
In Wychavon the numbers are the highest in Worcestershire so I am keen to support any and all efforts to promote healthier and happier lifestyles in our community.
Thank you to Jess and everyone I met today.
