‘Losing 13 stone helped me get pregnant with miracle baby’

A Dublin woman says her life has “completely changed” for the better after losing half of her total body weight.

Charity manager Carla Piera cut down her weight from 23 stone to just 10 stone after joining Irish weight loss programme Body Slims. She had previously struggled with binge eating and bulimia in earlier years and decided in 2019 to seek professional support for disordered eating.

She says that the weight loss has also had a positive on her mental wellbeing as well as her physical health. She welcomed her son into the world back in January and believes she would not have conceived without the lifestyle change.
