Desire to lose weight leads mum-of-three down garden path

WITH three youngsters under three, full-time mum Emma Smith found a novel way of exercising - running up and down her garden path.

The 33-year-old was determined to lose weight, and after joining Slimming World she shed an incredible five-and-a-half stone in eight months.

The Stockton mum realised she needed to move more to help with her weight and said: “I used to get the girls to bed and then run up and down the garden path.”

As her weight started to drop, Emma became more energised - she even recently completed the Race for Life.
