A woman who spent her 2022 Spanish holiday feeling uncomfortable and depressed about her body embarked on a fitness journey and is now four stone lighter. Shelley O'Connor is a mum-of-one who gave birth to her daughter Mollie in 2020.
She put on weight during lockdown which left her feeling ‘lost and unhappy’. Shelley, aged 31, said: “I basically had a really dire holiday. I was so self-conscious and I have a little girl who’s only two years old.
“I ruined the holiday because I was so in my own head about my body and I wasn’t physically fit enough to keep up with her. It was just a really bad holiday.”
