A woman who lost 11 stone after two weight loss surgeries says she has 'skinny privilege' now she is smaller - and strangers treat her differently.
Issy Montgomery, 24, had always been “big” but found herself piling on the weight during lockdown and was soon tipping the scales at 24st 11lbs and bursting out of a size 32.
She had always struggled with yo-yo dieting and couldn’t find anything that worked for her when it came to keeping the weight off.
Issy changed up her diet and looked into weight loss surgery and had a gastric sleeve in September 2022 on the NHS.
