A super slimmer has opened up about how she felt forced into shedding 20 stone after being pelted with food in the street.
Harriet Peacock said she was taunted and even shoved over by fat-shaming strangers as her weight progressively spiralled out of control. The online tutor has now shed more than half of her body weight dropping from 33st 3lbs to just 13st 3lbs and dropping from a dress size 34 to a 16.
The 46-year-old said: “Being very overweight had a huge impact on my mental health. The fat-shaming I would endure was soul-destroying. One time a group of men pushed me over and to add to the humiliation, I couldn’t get back up.
