Sophie Worsley was spurred on to lose weight after seeing a picture of herself that her mum took. The 22-year-old had been unhappy with her weight for some time, but seeing a snap of herself gave her the motivation she needed.
She said: “I didn’t recognise myself anymore. I thought, ‘I need to do something about it’, and that was the start of the journey.”
The GP receptionist joined a local weight loss support group in Greater Manchester called Beeweighed, where she was put on a calorie-counting plan. As well as this, she also went to Zumba classes twice a week.
