A mum-of-three lost 10 stone after her son asked if she was pregnant. Weighing 21 stone, Gemma Davies, from Llanelli, South Wales, was so shocked by her then 10-year old son’s words, that she signed up to a local slimming group to battle the bulge. Embarrassed by her size 24 figure, the married 29 year old ditched her junk food stash of crisps, sweets and chocolate, and in just a year, dropped a whopping 10 stone. Now weighing 11 stone and a size ten, Gemma says: ‘I couldn’t believe it when my son Matthew asked if I was having another baby.’
