A former 15 stone regular Greggs customer who ditched her every day pastry lunch has now transformed into a personal trainer and bodybuilder after she successfully shed six stone. Staceylee Richards, 38 who had a tough relationship with food growing up used to pop into her local store during her lunch break at work every day but she finally overcame her unhealthy eating habits after she joined a gym with a friend and started taking part in weight training.
The reformed bodybuilder who used to struggle with fad diets which would only show her results for a short period of time learned how to control her comfort eating habits and finally lost a whopping six stone after the covid pandemic lockdown in 2020. Last weekend she announced that she had officially won her first bodybuilding competition, the Mirror reports.
Staceylee said: “I was addicted to food and I would think about it constantly. It was my comfort for when I had ups and downs as food always made me feel better until later on when the guilt would hit. Working in the banking office was hard as there was temptation everywhere; if it was someone's birthday, there would be a cake, or at long meetings we'd have biscuits and coffee.
