Weight loss success stories

Andrea BoldBody weighed around 234lbs at her heaviest and was extremely unhappy after getting divorced and laid off from work. The 37-year-old has battled lupus, hypothyroidism, and polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), which, alongside the birth of her second son, affected her weight.
Things got so bad for the single mum that she would make her two sons, now aged 12 and 17, stand in front of her in pictures. She also didn't attend a friend's birthday because she was "ashamed" of how she looks.
Wanting to change her appearance, Andrea changed her diet and fitness routines and lost an astonishing 100lbs.
