Dundee women win some and lose some

Women who completed a 12-week weight-loss challenge in Dundee gathered at Spice restaurant in the west end to celebrate their achievements.

The challenge, run by Shona Wales at Dundee West Church on Perth Road, is based on a concept popular in America.

It is the first weight-loss programme of its kind in Dundee.

Participants pay £35 to register for the challenge and at the end of the 12 weeks the three people who lose the biggest percentage of their original body weight win money.

Ms Wales said, “Between them all, the group managed to lose a combined total of 13 stones and 240 inches.”

The prize winners were Joan Knight of Dundee, who lost 9.8% of her body weight and came in third with £96, while second was Lillian Culloch of Letham, who lost 11.9% and won £144.

Dundee woman Ann Low won the £240 star prize after shedding 14.7%.

This was the third challenge run by Ms Wales and a new session will begin on Monday, April 26.
