A woman lost three stone in just eight weeks after deciding she had to change her lifestyle. Jess Cooke went from constant snacking to a strict fitness regime and controlled diet to shift the weight in just two months.
Jess, from Liverpool, said she started eating too much while studying for her exams due to the stress. Despite having always been healthy and fit, Jess let her eating habits slip away from her in school, the Liverpool Echo reports.

"I would just snack all the time, I had something in front of my face constantly."
