A 24-year-old woman who grew to 18stone after spending £30 a day on fast food and takeaways has lost nearly six stone after deciding to turn her life around in lockdown.
Poppy Stainsby, 24, was spending £10,950 a year on fast food and pizza, which left her struggling to fit size 20 clothes.
Poppy told the Star: “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.”
