A man who piled on the pounds while caring for his dying husband has lost 4st by eating 'yellow sticker' discount foods - saving himself hundreds of pounds. Dean Simpson-Humphreys, 46, became a full-time carer to husband Gary, when he was diagnosed with a tumour on his spinal cord.
Initially, hospital visits on top of his full-time job took their toll on Dean, and he coped with his new schedule by turning to fast food. He'd have takeaway for breakfast and dinner - with a lunch from the hospital canteen, and ballooned to 18st.
But when he realised he had to care for himself and Gary, he joined Slimming World in 2018, and lost 4st, and now weighs 13st 12lbs. Dean lost weight by picking up food once a week from the bargain 'yellow ticket' sections at his local supermarket.
