A former take away addict who used to spend an eye watering £3k a year on fast food dropped a whopping eight stone after a stranger's hurtful comments motivated her to shed some pounds. Makeda Roberts, 27, finally took the plunge with her weight loss journey in January 2021 after a cruel man referred to her as a "fat b***h".
The brutal comment resulted in Makeda joining a Slimming World class and starting home workouts, the Manchester Evening News reports. Almost two years later and without ever stepping foot in a gym, the 27-year-old is nearly unrecognisable after she went from a size 22 to a size 10.
Makeda who used to splash out around £50 on her favourite takeaway three times a week had to make the decision to completely cut out fried chicken and chips to prioritise her health and commit to her goals. The customer service associate, from South London, says she is now grateful for the harsh comment, as it inspired her to turn her life around after she admits she struggled with her weight her entire life.
