Damian Murphy-Clarke never expected that walking into his local Slimming World group would completely transform his life — or the lives of his family. After losing seven stone, Damian has not only gained a healthier body but a new purpose: helping others reach their own weight loss goals.
It all began as a shared family mission. Damian, his husband Graham, and his mother-in-law Correena decided it was time for change. With a family holiday approaching, they aimed to lose a few stone and feel more confident in their clothes. What started as a short-term goal quickly evolved into a long-lasting lifestyle change.
“We joined Slimming World as a family,” Damian said. “We went every week, stayed for group sessions, and found strength in the support of our Consultant and each other.”
By the time their holiday arrived, the family had already achieved impressive results. But their journey didn’t stop there.
“We were proud of what we’d done for the trip,” Damian explained, “but we soon realised it wasn’t just about looking good for one event. It was about long-term health.” For Damian, that motivation was deeply personal.
As a father to four children — including two sons with additional needs, one of whom has complex, lifelong medical conditions — Damian knew he needed to be in his best health to support his family now and in the future.
Now, inspired by his own transformation, Damian is turning his success into a career by helping others change their lives, just as he did.
