A couple who would splurge on £50 takeaways every night with a bottle of red wine have lost an incredible seven stone between them - and say the transformation has saved their marriage.
Mark and Sarah Smith, who both work for the same financial company, were stuck in an endless cycle of coming home from the office and being too tired to cook. Instead, they would reach for the delivery apps and wash down the fast food with a bottle of wine - which saw them quickly pile on the pounds.
However, when 39-year-old Mark had a health scare with his heart, the couple knew it was time to make a change and ditch their unhealthy lifestyle once and for all, the Manchester Evening News reports.
