Wayne's impressive drive to lose weight

Wayne Cooke, who attends the Weightwatchers group in Gomersal, started out weighing 26 stone 10lb.

He now weighs in at 15 stone 12.5lb – a remarkable drop of 10 stone 11.5lb.

Mr Cooke said: “I was referred to Weightwatchers through my doctor when I was 28 stones 3lb. I had high blood pressure at that point.

“I’m a lorry driver so it’s not easy eating well on the road all week, but with determination it did become easier.

“Jill Butterworth, who is my coach is amazing, I can’t thank her enough for all she has done.”
