Woman, 24, loses six stone and kicks her £11,000-a-year burger and pizza habit

A woman has lost a third of her body-weight by ditching her £11,000 a year burger habit.

Poppy Stainsby used to spend £30 a day on fast food and take-away pizza.

The 24-year-old tipped the scales at 18st and was a size 20, the Daily Star reported.

Poppy used to have McDonald’s breakfasts, KFC lunches and Dominoes dinners, but has now scrapped the greasy food.

Now she has ditched the £10,950-a-year habit and lost a serious amount of weight in the process.

She weighs 12st and is a size ten.

The office clerk, from Kings Lynn, Norfolk, said: “I’ve transformed my lifestyle.

"I cook myself nice meals like salmon and rice, and exercise.

“I used to get sore feet and get out of breath from just going shopping.

"Now I go on long walks and bike rides.”

Poppy decided to start losing weight in January when she began to suffer back pain.

Thanks to working at home during the lockdown, she was able to squeeze in two workouts and an evening walk each day.

Instead of commuting Poppy did high-intensity workouts and taught herself to cook from recipe books.

She has now swapped her daily fast food for healthy meals like chicken and green beans.

Poppy often goes for a five mile walk around her local area.

Poppy used to have McDonald's breakfasts as well as KFC lunches and Dominoes dinners.

Now she has completely scrapped the greasy food.

Poppy said: “I actually cook now.

“I would have a takeaway everyday and food was my comfort but now I’m eating the good stuff - like loads of fruit and veg.

“I feel like the best version of myself.”
