In this uplifting and deeply inspiring episode, Sandra Roycroft-Davis sits down with Julie, a nurse living with fibromyalgia, who shares how she broke free from 40 years of yo-yo dieting, emotional eating, and chronic pain. Julie's story is one of quiet strength, self-compassion, and the life-changing impact of the Slimpod programme. From struggling with energy, binge eating out of boredom, and sugar cravings… to dropping two dress sizes and feeling stronger, calmer, and more in control — this is the kind of transformation that brings real hope.
