Mum-of-six reveals 10 STONE weight loss despite rare condition that stops her exercising
A MUM-of-six has revealed her incredible 10 STONE weight loss - despite suffering from a rare condition that stops her exercising.
Lisanne Dale, 39, who has a form of spinal stenosis, tipped the scales at 21 stone at her heaviest.
But within just eight months she managed to slim down to a healthy size 12, weighing 11 stone.
The stay-at-home mum, from Wakefield, Yorks, ditched takeaways and biscuit snacks - replacing them with homemade healthy cooking.
She says she has now learnt how to have a "good relationship" with food after beating a sugar addiction and bulimic eating disorder.
Lisanne piled on the pounds after being diagnosed with a rare type of spinal stenosis in 2011 called cauda equina syndrome, which prevents her from exercising.
She continued: "Food used to rule me but now I have learnt how to control my diet and always pick the healthy option.
“I cook everything at home from scratch, if I fancy a pizza, I will make one myself or if I would like a kebab, I make a healthy one.
“Whereas before I was known for buying a pizza, large kebab and chips to myself but the thought of putting all that into my body makes me feel sick.
“It is hard for me to believe I once couldn’t go a day without a pack or two of biscuits because I can’t even remember the last time, I had one.”
After losing two stone on her own, she joined Slimming World in March 2019 and now flaunts her size 12 frame with confidence.
Lisanne, who is mum to Lauren, 22, Brandon, 19, Milly, 14, Felix, 13, Riley, two, and one-year-old Noah says her weight loss makes looking after her youngest much easier.
She added: “I am now so much happier with my body and my children are super proud of me which makes it even more worth it.
“I do have a lot of excess skin which is all over my body and hope to get this removed in the future.”
