A Dudley paramedic is celebrating after losing the equivalent of a whole other person in weight.

Lee Farley has lost an impressive 10-stone since starting his Slimming World journey just over two years ago, using Slimming World vouchers sourced through a Trust Health and Wellbeing incentive.

Back in July 2023, Lee made it to the finals of Slimming World’s Man of the Year competition after losing 8-stone and has gone on to reach his brand new target. Lee said:

“When I made it to the finals and had lost 8-stone, I was very much bombarded with questions and queries from my colleagues about how I’d done it, and sign posted them to the Slimming World vouchers from the Health and Wellbeing Being Team. 

"I feel great; I’m so much healthier, fitter and I’m able to do regular excise which is good for the mind and body. After years of yo-yo dieting I never thought I would get anywhere near my current weight.”

Trust Health and Wellbeing Manager, Manjeet Malhi added: “Lee is such an inspiration, he has worked extraordinarily hard and not given up and we are all so proud of him.

“Since Lee’s award nomination last year, we’ve had more than 60 members of staff utilise a Slimming World voucher, proving how he is a huge inspiration to many of us.”
