Slimming World Passage West

08/06/2018

So I recently have moved on to Slimming World Consultancy in a permanent capacity. It is going fantastic and I am now the proud Consultant in Mahon on Tuesday evenings 5.30 and 7.30 in Cork Camoige Club.

I am also in Carrigtwohill Community Centre now on a Wednesday morning 9.30 and 11.30 a.m.

I am currently in Passage West on a Wednesday evening at 5.30 and 7.30 pm
(Loving working by the Hourbour - beautiful place).

And last but not least....the Group I started off with in January....Glounthaune Community Centre on a Thursday evening at 5.30 and 7.30 pm. I have successfully brought this group to Flagship Status which is where Slimming World would like all their classes to be at this level of service with fantastic weight losses.
We are rocking it!

I have met so many fantastic, inspiring and well driven people who are on a journey of a lifetime with me! It is an honour to be leading you all on your weight loss journey. The results speak for themselves! Amazing members and an amazing food plan that will change your life!

If any of my groups would suit you and you would like to rejoin or become a new member, please come along and experience our groups. You will not regret it....we are changing our future...together!

Please share if possible. Thanks, Trish xx

It was such a pleasure to celebrate all of our couples of the year last week in group!👫👬👬

The tasters were amazing and has given me ideas all week on what to eat! 🍴

All of couples both nominees and winners were fabulous to share so openly with us and were incredibly inspiring!🎆

I just wanted to share some pictures of the festivities! 🎉
The couples pictured have lost over 15stone between them! 😱

With the weather we are supposed to get this weekend, this will go down nicely! 😎🌞🍨🍦

It's Friday, it's sunny and this knickerbocker glory is getting us giddy for the weekend! Enjoy layers of fresh fruit, ice-cream and chocolate sauce - yum! http://ow.ly/hg9530jzIEe

Picked up the new pork skewers to try for lunch today!🍢 I must say I really like them, they’re totally different to anything I’d make myself and now I have the recipe I’ll definitely give them a go myself! 👍🏻 I love trying the range for recipes I’d never try myself or just for times when I’m really stuck! 💫

Friday night is fakeaway night!
We love a good burger in this house and Friday night would have always been a night I would have relied on take away! 🍔🍟
But now there’s no need!

I can honestly say the burgers and chips I make myself are so much nicer than anything I’ve ordered in and it helps me on my weight loss journey so it’s a win win! 🎉👍🏼

I would have always said before that I’m too busy to be making this stuff myself but now I’m actually doing it I can see how quick and easy it can be!

Pop along to any of my groups in Passage or Carrigaline to hear more about Food Optimising and how it could help you get that summer body you’d like, while still eating burgers and chips at the weekend! 😱

How amazing is this?!😱
Sometimes looking at the weekly results mightn't feel like you're getting where you want to go, but when you take a step back and see how far you've come it's amazing! 💪

What are your non scale victories? 👗👪🏃

"Now I’m running up the hills with the girls, getting in the slides without worrying I’ll get stuck, going on the swings, long walks to the beach, laughing, living and happy!" We were blown away by this picture shared by Michelle (michellesswjourney87 on Instagram) - comparing an old dress to a new one. Wow! Got a similar non-scale goal you're aspiring to?

10/04/2018

New meats and meals added to the Slimming World range in Iceland! 🎉

I can't wait to try the pork skewers! Perfect for what will hopefully be bbq season over the next few months! 😂🙏

Have you got to try any of these yet?

This is so badly needed in Passage and I’m so disappointed that this has happened!

I will be drafting up the relevant letter and will have it in group next week for anyone who wants to sign it with me and donations towards the €50 fee are welcome!

It’s an outrage it’s been put off but hopefully we can all come together and get it back on track! 🤞🏻🤞🏻

I had been holding off this morning on putting up a bad news update about Aldi until I had spoken directly to An Bord Pleanála. I now have and can sadly confirm that the Aldi planning application was appealed by a third party on 3rd April. The Board is sending out notification of the appeal to Cork County Council today. When the County Council receives it, likely tomorrow or Monday, we will be able to see the nature of the appeal and why it has been taken.

There is so much goodwill in Passage West for the success of this planning application. We can let the Board know how badly this store is wanted by making a written observation on the appeal. The window of opportunity to do this is from now until 30th April. In making an observation there are some basic guidelines:

- Put your address and the date at the top of the page
- Head the observation with the Board's planning reference:
ABP-301328-18 Aldi, Passage West, Co. Cork
- Explain why you feel the store should get planning permission
- Sign the observation letter
- Enclose the relevant fee of €50. If it is a cheque, make it payable to An Bord Pleanála.

€50 is a lot of money, so if a few people want to come together and lodge a single observation with all their names signed at the bottom, that's fine. You can share the cost of the €50. Just make sure you put one address for correspondence at the top of the page.

Even Aldi hasn't been officially notified about this yet. I had in fact corresponded with them only yesterday. They had previously hoped that the store would be open by May. Now the Board is due to take a decision on the appeal by 7th August 🙁

Get your Easter weekend off to a delicious start (and stay on track with your weight loss!) with hot cross bun-inspired baked oats. http://ow.ly/NuFc30jcaZ2

So this can be breakfast every single day with Slimming World and you can still lose weight! 😱

Nuts isn’t it? How tired are you of being starved on a diet?👎🏻

A breakfast sandwich is one of my favorites so seeing that it didn’t have to be off the menu when I joined Slimming World along with being able to eat pasta, rice and potatoes in unlimited amounts was a dealbreaker for me!🍝🍚🥔

If this is the kind of food you love to eat and want to lose weight I know this is the lifestyle for you!

Pop along to the PACE centre in Passage on Wednesdays at 5:30pm, 7:30pm or Thursdays at 9:30am or Carrigaline GAA hall Saturdays at 9:30am to find out more about the plan that lets you eat burgers, chips and breakfasts of champs and still lose weight!🍔🍟🥪

And if you pick up Woman magazine you’ll only have to pay €9 night one! 🎉

I promise it’s not too good to be true and you won’t regret joining!✨

28/03/2018

Our amazing groups in Passage tonight lost a total of 55lbs! 💪🏻
Which is the equivalent of 239 blueberry muffins! 😂

Don’t worry if you didn’t make it tonight!
We’ll be there again tomorrow morning at 9:30am! 🎉

I know with the kids being on holidays and being out of routine can make Food Optimising seem harder but come along and take a seat in group with a cuppa and we’ll make a plan so that the Easter bunny doesn’t scupper all your hard work! 🐰

Feel free to bring the kids along too if there’s no babysitters about!

Staying on plan when the kids are off school and you're in the house all day or spending hours in play zones and parks can make food optimising seem very difficult! 😈

But LifelineOnline has you covered! 😇
Giving it a read and making it to group this week will have you feeling ready to take on anything! 💪

Are you worried that the Easter break will derail your weight loss? Keep on track – while keeping the children occupied – with the kid-friendly recipes and holiday ideas in the latest feature on LifelineOnline and Slimming World Online. http://ow.ly/dBHS30j73AY

This week in group we had the pleasure of crowning our Greatest Losers 2018!! 🎉👑

We unfortunately only got two pictures but we had three winners and between them all, they had lost nearly 14 stone!! 😱

It was so amazing to hear in their own words what made them join, their top tips and what kept them going when times got tough!

The common theme running through what they said was the importance of being prepared and making the time to stay to group!

So you've heard it from these amazing women who have changed their lives, we are ready and waiting to help you change yours now too!

Between the three sessions in Passage this week a massive 108lbs were lost this week! So why not come along and add to those fantastic losses?

Been thinking of losing weight now the summer holidays are in sight?

Last years bikinis making you break out in a cold sweat?😅
Feeling like summer is just always going to be a time of discomfort and feeling self conscious?
I know those feelings because every summer always was my least favorite season! 👎🏻

But now I’ve found Slimming World and food optimizing!😁
And it’s not even as scary as it sounds, just eating healthy,making better choices and enjoying meals like the creamy carbonara pasta pictured below GUILT FREE!!🎉🎉

I tell no lies! 😍
Come along to Slimming World Passage Wednesday evenings and Thursday mornings or Carrigaline Saturday mornings and make this the summer of you!! 😎☀️👙

We're just about to head to print but here's a preview of tomorrow's front page, don't forget to pick up your copy of the Cork Independent tomorrow morning-we promise there's very little mention of snow!

How amazing is this?!?!

Aldi getting planning permission in Passage West is going to make Food Optimising even easier and cheaper for all you gorgeous members and potential members!!

So so excited! 😍🎉

Whooppee!!! Aldi has been granted planning permission by Cork County Council for our local store.

Although to be fair to them, they've been beavering away for the past few weeks on preparing the store internally.

If there is an appeal to An Bord Pleanala, it will delay matters so here's hoping it's full steam ahead 👍

02/03/2018

Unfortunately due to the weather and how badly it has affected Carrigaline, it won't be safe for you guys or myself to get to group tomorrow in the Carrigaline GAA Hall! 😭

They have kindly offered to let us use the hall Sunday morning instead though!🎉

So weather permitting, I will be in the GAA hall on the Crosshaven road from 10:30am and will leave weigh open until 11:30 to facilitate all my lovely Carrigaline members and my equally as lovely Passage members who mightn't have been able to make it on Wednesday!
It goes without saying any visiting members are so so welcome too! ☕️🙋🏻
Keep an eye on this page for any updates and please like and share this post so anyone who needs to know, does! 👍🏻

All you need on a night like tonight!

Hope you are all warm, cosy and safe at home!

With world book day approaching why not pick up a good book!
I know just the one! 😂😂

28/02/2018

Due to the weather I'll be leaving the PACE Centre at 5:30pm to try and avoid frozen roads for anyone who was thinking of coming after then!

Tomorrow mornings group won't be going ahead due to the red weather alert so make sure you stay inside and stay safe!!

Hoping carrigaline will go ahead on Saturday at 9:30am in Carrigaline GAA Hall so will keep ye updated!

Make sure to like and share this to everyone is in the know about the groups and don't make any uneccessary journeys as they say! 😂

28/02/2018

Hi folks,

Just a quick post to say there'll be an open pay and weigh in the PACE Centre today from 3pm - 6:15pm!

I know your weightloss is important to you but please please keep safe! Your safety is 109% more important!

I'll still be in Carrigaline Saturday morning all going well so there will be another chance to weigh in if today doesn't suit!

I'll have the kettle on for a hot cuppa for those of you who do make it in and I look forward to seeing you!

You can reach me on 085 115 8382 if needs be 😀
