When Janet Curry, 38, was told she was ‘too big to date’ by a man she met on the dating website Plenty of Fish, she didn’t let it stop her from looking for love. After going through a divorce and battling a painful abdominal disorder, the professional makeup artist and mum-of-one knew that she could handle anything.

She has now dropped 11.5st and an astonishing NINE dress sizes to slim down to a perfect size-12. Plus she’s bagged a hunky fella to boot.
