Woman loses half her body weight by making one simple change

Single mum and café worker Siobhan Thornton was feeling down about her weight after giving birth to her daughter and splitting with her partner - but an cheap and cheerful addition to her diet changed things.

She was struggling to get into a size 22 (after previously being around a size 16) and was close to being diabetic. Thornton was around 17 stone after welcoming her daughter into the world, she also lived on junk food.

But a little change to her dialy diet reportedly helped her turn that around.

Thornton started drinking at least two cups of green tea every day – and says that it's help her lose more than eight stone.

She toldThe Mirror:

I used to avoid looking at myself - now my confidence is through the roof and I've halved my BMI.

I am certain that I lost the first three stone through drinking green tea alone.

My metabolism just went through the roof and I hadn't done much else.

Thornton says she wasn’t even doing any more exercise than normal to help boost her weightloss. She adds that green tea is “so underrated” – not to mention relatively affordable.

Now, Thornton is still drinking her green tea, weight around 9 stone, and goes to the gym three times a week.

She looks and feels a lot better about herself, and has also reinstalled Tindr.
