Sheffield Mother Who Lost Six Stone Says Weight-Loss Jabs Leave Her Bitter

Group accountability shaped a three-year transformation built on daily habits.

Overview

  • Bethany Wragg, 41, slimmed from 16st 4lbs and a size 24 to 10st and a size 10 through Slimming World and regular cycling over three years.
  • She rejoined her local Slimming World group in January 2022 for a fifth try and credits weekly weigh-ins for the discipline to stay on track.
  • She recalls a playground comment about her being “fat” and needing a belt extender on a theme park ride as moments that pushed her to change.
  • Wragg says she feels bitter seeing rapid results from widely advertised injections since summer 2024 and reports being asked if she used them.
  • Her household now plans healthier meals and keeps active with 10‑mile weekend bike rides and local cycling several times a week.
