Sam's happy to keep on losing with football club

MAN v FAT helped Sam Sheppard to lose weight.

Sam Sheppard, 25, found himself struggling after moving to Wakefield and then came across an advert for MAN v FAT Football Wakefield on social media.

He said: "I'd gone from playing football multiple times a week to not at all. It negatively impacted my weight and mental wellbeing.

"When I came across the adverts, I took the leap to join and have never looked back!"
