JEAN- IUS DIET: 24ST MUM LOSES 12ST THANKS TO JEANS DIET
A mum-of-three lost half of her body weight after her daughter was teased by playground bullies for having a 'fat mum'. Emma Dunne, 32, weighed a whopping 24 stone when her 10-year-old daughter, Stephanie, complained that children at school were making cruel comments about her size. “She came home and said, ‘Mummy, everyone at school says you’re fat’,” said Emma, of Gorey, Co Wexford, Ireland. “I was absolutely gutted and felt like I had let her down. I wanted to be a mum she could be proud of – not someone who just hid away.” The busy waitress and single mum to Stephanie, Siobhan, seven, and Seamus, six, was so big her kids could not fully wrap their arms around her to give her a hug.
