Winner of the Slendertone Add Tone Challenge, Andrea couldn't be happier

'I feel amazing after taking up the six-week Slendertone challenge, so winning is just the icing on the cake. It was unexpected and I still can't believe it. Meeting the other finalists, they all looked amazing, so it's incredible to be chosen as the winner.

'I took part because I needed to tone up a little. I didn't feel as though I needed to lose much weight but, like many women, I wasn't very confident or happy with my body. I always found something to complain about. So I felt this was the perfect opportunity to finally do something about it.

'It's incredible the effect Slendertone has had on me, both physically and emotionally. I lead a healthier lifestyle now. I lost a bit of weight and even dropped a dress size. My natural curves are more defined and my stomach is flatter and toned, thanks to Slendertone.

'My clothes fit better and I'm not trying to hide or cover up any more. It's given me a huge confidence boost, too. I would recommend Slendertone to anyone wanting to tone up or lose weight.'
