WOMAN LOSES 11ST AFTER BREAKING TOILET SEAT
A 23st woman who was left humiliated after breaking a TOILET SEAT has lost an incredible 11st. The embarrassing bathroom mishap shocked 30-year-old Gemma McKelvey into ditching her unhealthy lifestyle for good. The pretty brunette from Hertford now weighs a svelte 12st 10lbs and wears a size 14 - a shadow of her 23st 10lb former self. Gemma, who works as a communications and campaigns officer for Hertfordshire County Council, says: “I’d been unhappy with my weight for years, and I remember feeling fat as young as thirteen.
