A woman lost half her body weight on a plan which she says saved her life.
Chris Hayward tipped the scales at 21 stone and 3.5lbs at her heaviest, the Liverpool Echo reports. She wore a dress size 28 to 30.
The 65-year-old would snack on around three packets of crisps a day and eat two pre-packaged sandwiches for lunch. She only realised the real impact the weight was having on her health after having some routine blood tests.
