A super-slimming couple have shed a whopping 27 stone between them after vowing to get healthy on Valentine's Day. Kieron Buxton, 50, and wife Helen, 51, decided to get into shape after suffering health problems and even received abuse in the street.
The couple, who have been married for 16 years, gorged on fried breakfasts, biscuits, takeaways and beer and wine. Mental health charity worker Kieron tipped the scales at almost 30 stone and was so big he couldn’t even put his own shoes and socks on.
He and Helen, who weighed almost 18-and-a-half stone, decided to get healthy after Kieron was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes. The couple joined Slimming World on February 14, 2020, just weeks before lockdown and in just two years they shed an incredible 27 stone.
