A mum who lost a remarkable 14 stone has been left feeling "crushed" as her body now resembles a "90-year-old woman" due to 25lbs of loose skin. Kristina Murphy, 34, previously weighed 26st 7lb and wore a US size 30 at her heaviest, after a lifelong struggle with binge eating, the Mirror reports.
She realised how "out of hand" her health had gotten and the mum-of-two vowed to make the necessary changes to live a healthier life for herself and her children. She began her transformation in January 2021, implementing new diet and exercise changes such as portion control and working out before undergoing gastric bypass surgery in April that year.
Kristina, from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, US, managed to lose more than half her body weight, and now tips the scales at 12st 7lbs - but she is still suffering with body dysmorphia and a lack of confidence. Her huge weight loss came with a price and has left her with an estimated 20-25lb worth of sagging loose skin around her stomach.
