A mum lost 10st so she could take her kids to Disneyland and fit on the rides - and says her transformation is so extreme even a work colleague didn't recognise her. Natasha Burt, 36, said she had always struggled with her weight, but ballooned to 21st 9lbs and a size 24 over the pandemic.
The mum-of-two booked herself in for a £2.7k mini gastric bypass in Turkey in July 2021 and says it's "the best thing I've ever done in my life." She has since dropped to a slender 10st 13lbs and a size 12, and is back swimming and running 5k.
Natasha was able to take her children Lilly, 11, and Parker, four, to Disneyland for the first time in December 2022. Before now, she was scared of being turned around for being too big to fit on a ride.
