Runner ditched six stones and now loves being able to shop anywhere - even Victoria's Secret

A woman who has lost 6st 6lbs says she loves being able to shop anywhere - including Victoria's Secret. Martinette Tindall says she felt "amazing" when she was finally able to walk into the lingerie store and buy items straight off the rack.

For years it had been a case of buying what fit rather than shopping for clothes she loved. And it was not just her wardrobe which being overweight left her struggling with.

The 44-year-old from Wapping, East London, said everyday life such as travelling on public transport left her feeling uncomfortable. She would even avoid sitting next to people on the tube because she was too big to fit into one seat comfortably.
