Plastic Wrap To Lose Weight

The children’s slide at the soft play centre was not for adults, but when Adele Johnson’s five-year-old son Pete begged her to join him on it she couldn’t say no.

She got down, bottom squeezed tight by the slide, but when Pete excitedly begged her to go again, she finally accepted her weight was a problem.

“It was a big slide so the fact I had come close to breaking it made me take a step back and realise I needed to take action.”

“I’m an emotional eater and it got worse once Pete started at school as I would just eat because I had nothing else to do, ” says Adele, 37.

While Pete ate healthy fresh food , stay-at-home mum Adele would snack on chocolate biscuits and crisps, and fill herself up with big plates of pasta. In the evenings she would gorge on takeaways .

After nearly breaking the slide Adele knew she had to shed the pounds for her son. “He was so upset as I refused to go on the slide again, ” she says.

At size 22, 5ft 3ins Adele was too self-conscious to go to the gym. So in August last year she splashed out £450 on a treadmill for her living room.

It was during one of these workouts that she saw a reality TV programme where women were going to beauty salons and paying for expensive “inch-loss wraps”.

“It was one of the programmes where the women are rich and money is no object, and they would go to beauty salons where they were wrapped in clingfilm for an hour and would lose an inch off their waists and thighs.

“I knew it was crazy but I wanted to give it a go and see if it would help me sweat more out, and there was no harm in that.”

Adele bulk-bought clingfilm from the supermarket and started wrapping it around her belly before workouts, hoping it would increase the fat reduction on her stomach area.

“That was my target area as my son had always innocently joked about my ‘jelly baby belly’ – because my tummy was so flabby it wriggled, ” says Adele. “He’d also call me a sausage roll.

“I started wrapping at least 10 layers around my middle and then walking on the treadmill for an hour at a time.

“I definitely sweated more and that kept me motivated to keep going – it was like I could feel the fat melting off.”

“It was great to be able to burn off extra calories doing everyday things and with people around me being none the wiser, ” she laughs.

Adele also revamped her diet and started eating healthier to compliment her new regime – which had been so successful she managed to shed more than five stone in eight months.

“I started getting on the treadmill when I was bored instead of eating rubbish and I felt so much better for it.

“I never really drank water at all before, but because I was sweating so much I felt quite dehydrated so I needed to make sure that I was taking enough on.

And when Pete was able to reach his arms around her waist for a hug she finally felt excited about the prospect of going back down the slide with him.

“He was delighted he could give me a proper hug and that was when I realised how far I had come, ” she says.

When Pete’s sixth birthday arrived in March, Adele threw a party for him at the soft play area where her weight-loss journey began.

“In the eight months since nearly breaking the slide I had lost five stone and made it down to a size 14, ” she says.

“It felt amazing to get back on the slide and just enjoy it without worrying I was going to bring it all down around me.

“Pete was dressed as Captain Marvel for the party. He was so excited that I was going down the slide with him.

“As the weight had been coming off I had been starting to be able to do more and more activities with him and this was the final thing ticked off the list.

“I feel like a new woman and I’m so happy to be able to be the fun mum my son has longed for.”

Adele is continuing with her clingfilm workouts, although she’s now eased off to walking six to eight kilometres five times a week instead of the 12km sessions she had been doing.

On average, she uses up a roll of clingfilm a day. And she says the cost is a snip compared to the expense of having regular professional inch-loss wraps that can cost hundreds of pounds.

Adele says: “My plan was never to be skinny, and I’ll be happy when I get to size 12, but I want to take it slowly as I think that’s the best way to keep the weight off long-term.
