A nurse lost 14st after her weight left her "hobbling home" from gruelling 13 hour shifts.

Rosie Whitney, 30, struggled with binge eating and weighed 27st 12lbs and was a size 28 at her heaviest.

She was in placement as a student nurse when she realised she needed to make a change.

After years of yo-yo dieting, Rosie decided to fly to Turkey for a gastric bypass - costing £4,200.

Following the surgery Rosie lost most of the weight in a year and has now lost 14st 10lbs and is a happy and healthy 13st 3lbs and a size 12.
