Coming today and being a SlimPort star has just made me so happy. It made me really confident. When I got the phone call from Sandra, I just couldn't believe it. I am having the best time ever. I've been spoiled, I've been made over, I look amazing, I feel amazing, and I can't wait for the rest of the day.
It's absolutely amazing. It really is amazing. I'm very, very grateful to have been invited along.
Well, today I've been at Debenhams in Oxford Street being styled because I'm one of the SimPod stars of 2012. It's been a wonderful experience, something I've never done before, but to have somebody else picking out outfits and doing my hair and makeup, putting me in clothes I would never choose for myself, it's been really, really wonderful. I've met some great people who are also SimPod stars, and I'm looking forward to doing this again some other time.
I can't believe I've been picked to be a SlimPod star. It's all been a bit overwhelming because I'm not used to having all this attention and being told I've done well. It was an absolutely brilliant experience and I hope to continue with the SlimPods and with the support of Thinking Slimmer and Sandra and the fellow SlimPods Club people.
Sure, it's stuff that I've been doing for a while actually since I've been listening to the SlimPods. I make sure that I make time to exercise, I make sure that I make time to look after myself. Have my hair done, make sure I've got time to put on my makeup and feel good.
