Woman sheds 14st and splashes £12k on surgery – you won’t believe what she looks like now
Lyndsey Hoover can now slip into a slinky size six dress but on her wedding day five years ago she struggled to squeeze into her size 30 gown.
The 23-year-old ditched her 4,000-calorie-a-day diet after her addiction to cheeseburgers and Diet Coke meant her weight creep up to 23st.
Now the young mum-of-one looks unrecognisable after dramatically shedding 14st and forking out £12k to get her dream body.
Speaking about her life-long battle with her size, Lyndsey said: "I had always been overweight but on my 21st birthday I felt like my life was over.
"I had always imagined I would be out celebrating with friends but I had nothing to celebrate.
"I couldn't go to any shows as I couldn't fit in the seats and I couldn't eat out in nice restaurants as I was too big to fit in the booths.
"Being a size 30 I could only shop in two clothes stores and I was the very biggest size on the rail.
"A major turning point was when I was travelling home from a family holiday to Las Vegas when I couldn't buckle my seat belt on the airplane, I was mortified and knew I had to make drastic changes to my life."
The Texan beauty realised her weight wasn’t just leaving her severely depressed but it was having a serious effect on her health too.
She said: "I was pre-diabetic and suffered with severe back pain so I met with a doctor who referred me for a gastric bypass in June 2014.
