Ryan Quinn lost over 10st and is named Slimming World's Mr Sleek 2022

Music teacher Ryan Quinn, 32, from Northern Ireland had struggled with his weight since he was a teenager. He says “I always used to make the excuse that I was too busy to cook or think about eating healthily, but lockdown actually meant I ran out of excuses. I had more free time than ever, yet from March to September 2020, I gained two stone. I really couldn’t blame that on being too busy!” Ryan was encouraged to join Slimming World by a friend who wanted to lose weight for her wedding. He says: “My friend Amanda decided to join Slimming World and asked me to come along too, so for the first time ever I actually agreed – and I haven’t looked back since. Slimming World was nothing like I’d ever tried before. In the past I’d tried the egg diet, the cabbage soup diet… they all left me feeling deprived and didn’t teach me anything about food. Slimming World was totally different.” Ryan lost an incredible 10 stone. He says: “Fortunately I didn’t really struggle with my health before I lost weight, I just always felt huge. I’m a music teacher and take part in musical performances and I often got quite out of breath. I remember barely fitting in an orchestra pit." Soon after joining Slimming World, Ryan’s group in Sion Mills switched to an online service as the country entered lockdown. He says: “I missed group but the online sessions were still really valuable and much of my weight loss took place in lockdown. I found the other members really supportive, and it was so motivating to be surrounded by people on a similar journey.” Ryan soon got to grips with Slimming World’s Food Optimising eating plan, which enables slimmers to lose weight without hunger or restriction. The plan encourages members to fill up on a wide variety of healthy everyday foods – like lean meat, potatoes, pasta, fruit and vegetables. He says: “The best thing about Slimming World is the freedom to choose. I’d tried diets where everything is massively restricted, and they just don’t work. I made some really simple swaps, like changing oil for low-calorie cooking spray – and it made such a big difference. I soon found that my food actually tasted better because it was fresh and home-made. I loved how I could tailor the plan to suit my own likes and dislikes – I never really felt restricted and that definitely contributed to my success. My Consultant, Sinead, was incredible too. She had a really great reputation in the area, and it soon became clear why, she is just the most caring and motivating person. I really couldn’t have done it without her. Because she has lost weight herself, she knows how it feels to have ups and downs along the way and always seems to know the right thing to say. The group setting really helped me to understand my triggers and find strategies to overcome any situations that were potentially tricky for me. That kind of support really is invaluable to me.” Now just over a year later, Ryan has been named Slimming World’s Mr Sleek 2022, a competition to acknowledge members who have become happier and more confident since losing weight and one area of life in which Ryan feels much more confident is his love life. He says: “When I was bigger, I didn’t even attempt online dating because I just didn’t have the confidence. Now I feel much better about myself, and I think that shows. I’ve recently started dating my boyfriend, Kieran, and things are going really well. It’s something I didn’t really allow myself to think about when I was overweight.” Ryan’s weight-loss journey has also paved the way for him to become much more active – and he’s now a keen walker. Slimming World encourages its members to incorporate activity into their daily lives with its Body Magic programme, which helps beginners create sustainable, life-long changes – and encourages members who are already active to take it to a whole new level. He says: “Before losing weight even the simplest tasks would leave me out of breath. Now I love to get out in the countryside and go for a good walk. I find it’s really beneficial for both my body and my mind. I find work a lot easier too – I think nothing of being on my feet all day. It might sound cliché but losing weight really has been life changing for me. Looking back, a lot of my worries were all connected to my weight. My friend Amanda, who I joined Slimming World with, got married recently and we both felt incredible on the day. She’d lost 3½ stone and looked beautiful. In the past, a wedding invite would have been reason for me to worry about what to wear, or dread bumping into someone I hadn’t seen in a while in case they noticed I’d gained weight. Now I can genuinely look forward to living my life. The future feels so bright now, and I can’t wait to see what’s in store.” To find out more about losing weight with Slimming World go to https://www.slimmingworld.co.uk/
