In 1969, Margaret Miles was a hard-up 21 year old with a young daughter and a weight problem. Pregnant at 15, thrown out by her adoptive parents and married at 16, she\u2019d abandoned her dream of going to medical school, instead taking on a string of dead-end jobs and struggling to make ends meet. Restless, frustrated and determined to create a better life for herself and her family, Margaret took the bold decision to start her own business in an area she\u2019d come to know a lot about \u2013 slimming.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Working at her kitchen table in Derbyshire, she created a revolutionary programme which would turn the world of dieting on its head \u2013 a liberating new approach to weight loss offering freedom from hunger and humiliation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
And so Slimming World was born. From humble beginnings it went on to become a household name, and today it\u2019s the UK\u2019s favourite way to lose weight*.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In Wild Women Do (and they don\u2019t regret it!) <\/em>Margaret shares her inspiring, heart-warming \u2013 and sometimes heartbreaking \u2013 story of life, love and Slimming World, taking us through the highs and lows of building a business on little more than belief, dogged determination and a genuine desire to change lives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Wild Women Do (and they don\u2019t regret it!) <\/em>is available on: <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Amazon in Kindle Edition<\/a> If you\u2019re a Slimming World member, you can buy your copy from your Consultant.
