Not easy for a bloke to say but after I signed up I joined one of your support sessions. I reckon I was feeling a bit sorry for myself but I didn’t know it then – you saw through me, like straight away, weren’t putting up with any of my shit. I was gonna cancel but, I dunno, you like hit a nerve so I joined the next one. You lot made me feel real welcome and Mel you’ve really stuck by me. I guess I needed that kick up the arse but I reckon if I stick at it […]

I had weight loss surgery in 2019 and lost nearly 9 stone, but during and after Covid my weight went back up and I felt like it had all been for nothing. Last year I started taking the injection and thankfully it’s coming back down again. But I was really worried because it is so much harder this time round. The drugs help but I hear such horror stories about what happens when you stop them that it scares me, I can’t afford to be on them for much longer. I’ve searched everywhere for help. I must belong to every […]

What a cracking webinar babe, wish I’d found out about you years ago.

I have only recently found out about KIO – A friend of mind sent me a link to your podcast – it was the one with the surgeon – I learned so much that I became a member. Your approach is so refreshing. Knowing that you have been through the same as me but still kept your weight off has inspired me to do what you did. I love the podcasts by the way and I look forward to joining the next course. Thank you

Mel, I told my husband and kids what you said to me the other day and to cut a long story short they no longer tell me that I’m boring when we go out for a meal because I take too long to eat it and they have also stopped complaining that I refuse to make food that I made before my operation if it means that I can’t eat it as well. (well most of the time!)
Sophie, Harrogate
What a wise lady you are. I lost 7 stone after my bypass and yet I couldn’t see it and I still felt fat and ugly and ungainly. You opened my eyes to the language I use about myself and also about the danger of unrealistic goals. I am still losing weight, but I am also so much more content and happy within myself. Priceless
Katya, Maidstone
Your webinar about how to eat was so good. I didn’t realise how much I take for granted or am just unaware of. I really learned a lot and now I can’t stop telling everyone that they are not eating properly ha ha
Pete, Chelmsford
You do make me laugh Mel, some of your videos are hilarious. Nothing is off limits with you. You literally say it as it is
Suraiya, Luton
Thank you so much Mel, it was my cousin Ayesa that put me in touch with you because I couldn’t make up my mind about whether or not to have surgery even though I weighed 19 stone and have been thinking about it and driving her mad, for about 3 years. I’d even spoken to my GP who had referred me to Luton & Dunstable. But I still couldn’t decide. Reaching out to you really really helped me. The mist cleared and through your website I’ve learned that the rules for weight loss are basically the same whether you have […]
Christine, Bromley
Mel, as you know I had my surgery in 2022 but by the end of 2024 my weight was creeping back up and my mood was sinking. You helped me get back on track and now I’ve re lost the weight I’d gained plus a further 6 pounds. I feel great thank you so much for your continued support and for KIO it’s such an enlightening platform
