WOMAN WHO LOST 9ST SPENT £11K TO GET PERFECT BODY

A woman has spent over £11k to get the perfect body after a 9st weight loss left her with excess skin. After a four year battle to shift the pounds, Amy Coleman, 28, who once weighed 20st 4lbs, was left with a thick fold of loose sagging skin around her stomach. Amy spent £2,500 of her savings, as well as £5,000 of her family's money, to remove the excess skin and achieve her dream body.
