Online Lives: Maggie Ward

Read a story of success!

Maggie Ward, 48, lives in Yorkshire with husband Bob, 56. They each have two grown-up children.

“I was browsing womanand home.com when I came across the Diet Club electronic food diary. I’d heard about it, so I thought I’d give it a go.

I’ve had a lifelong battle with my weight. I’ve tried most diets and while some of them worked for a short time, I would always put the weight back on.

I got married last September and it was this that gave me the incentive to lose weight. I was 12st 21bs and my target weight for the wedding was 10st. I’d bought a size 12 dress, so I didn’t have much choice but to go for it!

Each day, I made a note of everything I had eaten in the food diary. It then automatically worked out how many calories I was eating and what I needed to cut out to get to my target weight.

I managed to get down to 10st 2lbs by my wedding day. I had lots of positive comments and felt great. The icing on the cake? The weight has stayed off!”
