“Pembrokeshire leisure centre came to work with their Boditrax scanner and we were able to put ourselves forward for scans which would tell you all sorts of information about your body, more than I really wanted to know. I knew I was overweight being a menopausal woman in my 50s and was not wanting this confirmed and didn't book in! However Casey, one of the staff who came, chatted to me and gave me advice about diet and with no pressure I decided very reluctantly to have the scan. It confirmed I was overweight however it also gave some good news, it shows my bone density which I was worried about (I'm osteopenic) but it was good, my visceral fat was in a good place despite being overweight and there was a lot more to take in. I wasn't overly interested but became a complete convert and over the following two days thought 'I can use this to do something'. I subsequently lost over a stone in weight over the next 10 weeks! I felt so much better and I continue on my journey. So don't be disheartened and go for it. Nobody judges you, you are just told the facts and what you do with them is up to you.”
