JoLynne’s Story

Published On : 14th October, 2025

I am a 62-year-old, married for 25 years, and very active. I have recently retired and am looking forward to the next chapter of my life. Before starting my weight loss journey, I was feeling sluggish and very despondent. I had tried numerous diets, which were always hard work, and I would gain the weight back as soon as I stopped.

The Challenge – Before I Started

I really like my food and felt restricted on diets. I’d tried calorie counting, Slimming World, Weight Watchers, and various other diet plans. I chose HealthHubUK after speaking to the pharmacist, who was kind and understanding. She empathised with how I was feeling, especially given my age and sex.

The Solution – My Experience with HealthHubUK

Getting started was easy, and the monthly consultations were great, they focused on my wellbeing, wellness, and mindfulness. The pharmacist was always available by phone or email if I needed her. The monthly check-ins were friendly, and nothing was ever too much trouble. After an initial consultation, I would definitely recommend the process. It was easy to follow, and I was able to eat what I wanted, although my portions were, and still are, a lot smaller. I followed the pharmacist’s recommendations and am totally satisfied and delighted with the results.

The Results – My Progress

I have lost around 2 stone in twelve months and have been at my target weight for over six months. My weight fluctuates by a few pounds, but it hasn’t stopped me from eating what and when I want. I now go to the gym weekly, up to four times a week. I feel much more confident and happy when looking in a mirror. Occasionally, I felt a little nauseous, and sometimes had very loose bowel movements depending on what I ate, but on the whole, I have had no adverse reactions on the program.

Reflection – Looking Back

Being so much happier within myself, I would recommend the program to others. You need to stay focused on the program to get the right results. Following the pharmacist’s recommendations really helps—for example, I was advised to fast between 8 pm and 11 am. If I gain a few pounds now that I’m at my target weight, fasting soon helps me lose them. I would definitely recommend HealthHubUK’s service to others, you’ve been amazing.

Testimonial

The weight loss journey I have been on has been amazing. Thank you to Nazma, the pharmacist, who has given me so much support. I would recommend the program to anyone who wants to lose a lot of weight or just a couple of stone like me. Give it a go, you will be amazed at the results.
