The interview

What was your life like before working with the Powter Weight Loss Academy?

Before working with the Academy, I had been on and off a diet for 50 years. I'm 58 years old, and my mother put me on my first diet when I was eight. I was 30 to 35 pounds overweight, hating myself, not able to fit into my clothes, my blood pressure was up, and my joints were aching.

How did you feel about yourself before starting the program?

I can honestly describe it as I just felt so unsettled. I had achieved in other areas of my life—I had a great marriage and kids and a good career—but I couldn't get a handle on this. I had tried every diet out there: shakes, Slimming World, Weight Watchers, Keto, and Atkins.

What was your experience with previous dieting attempts?

They work in a calorie deficit and you feel happy, but your relationship with food is uneasy and uncomfortable. As soon as you go back to eating the way you used to, the weight all goes back on because you never really look at what's underneath.

How did you find Jennifer Powter and what struck you about her?

I found the Weight Loss Academy on Facebook when one of her feeds came up. I was struck by how sensible and normal she was. It just was a plan; it's not a diet, it's a plan that can fit into your life and you can make work around you.

What made you decide to say yes to the program?

Jen and her team just talk so much sense. They understand the struggles that we have with life and our bodies. The program is so much more than just food; it involves being curious about the reasons why you got into that position and why we revert to old habits when stressed.

Did you have any hesitations before joining?

The thing that made me hesitate was that it is expensive and it is a commitment. How I now look at it is it's really the best money I ever spent. I actually think every penny of it was worth it.

What were your actual weight loss results?

I lost all my weight with Jen within six months. I was at 170 pounds, and over the six months, I got down to 140 pounds, which was my goal weight. I lost 30 pounds, my blood pressure had come down, and my joints stopped aching.

How has your mindset changed regarding food and maintenance?

I realized I don't have to do crazy things or starve myself; I can eat three times a day and never feel hungry. I feel that Jen has given me tools to go on holiday or to a party and maintain my weight, which I've never managed to do before.
