A mum-of-one has spent £32,500 on excess skin removal after she lost 11 stone following cruel comments about her size from men she had dated.
Kate Richmond, 46, who was 26 stone at her heaviest and now weighs 15 stone, underwent a remarkable transformation after embracing a fitness programme and taking up weightlifting.
But the ex-dentist, who now owns a medical aesthetics company, felt she needed to 'treat herself' with surgery to remove half a stone of skin - after shedding over a third of her body weight.
