A couple from Nottingham say they have experienced a new lease of life after losing 27 stone between them.
Helen and Kieron Buxton, decided to join Derbyshire based weight loss organisation 'Slimming World' on Valentine's Day 2020, following a 12-week referral from Kieron’s GP.
Since losing 19.5 stones Mr Buxton, who is 50-years-old, has reversed his type 2 diabetes and no longer needs medication for the condition.
In an interview Mr Buxton said: “I’d been overweight for much of my life, to the point where I didn’t really acknowledge it anymore.
"Being inactive, wearing 5XL shirts and asking for seatbelt extenders was just normal life for me. I was even used to the abuse that would get thrown at me in the street.
Wow, that is impressive... they look a lot healthier. In fact, they almost look like different people now
!
Congrats to them - and I hope they can maintain it
