Exclamation Any writers/journalists catchy headline needed

I'm currently writing an editorial to get in the paper because due to the success of my Slimming World Group i'm having to move to a bigger venue to accomodate the size of my class ( its gone from having 15 to 75-80 members in 1 session).

It needs a very catchy headline, to get people to read it and i'm stuck.

It needs my name in it ( Sarah ) OR something to do with Slimming/Slimmers

Answers on a postcard.....

Sarah

Yeah, same thought process as me then, a play on the fact that the club are getting bigger and the people getting smaller etc.

But I couldnt really think of anything punchy enough either

thanks for the input, still undecided, there are a few good suggestions

Chip - theyve lost 55 stone in 9 weeks between them, so theyve definitely got slimmer,

God why is it so hard, there are millions of words to choose from

'Trying to get slim, and we're full to the brim'. 'For us to get smaller, we need to get bigger'. 'Slimmers worried they are not big enough'.

Crikey, thats a pretty shocking statistic, but at the same time, not surprising.

Its a very true statistic, we are aiming to have 1 class for every 5000 of the population, which reaches out to just 1% of the number of overweight people, when infact the actual percentage of overweight people is a lot higher.
