Weight loss transformed my shape - and my outlook!

AT 32, Natalie Tipler is proof that determination, support and a positive mindset can transform not just a body, but also a life.

After the birth of her second child, the office manager and mum of two found herself five stone heavier and struggling with low self-esteem.

She said: "After my first baby, I didn't feel like myself for about 18 months. I avoided being in photos, didn't like how I looked, and lost confidence in how to dress. My mental health really took a hit."

Determined not to repeat that experience, Natalie, from Ruddington, took action early.
