Woman wins beauty pageant after losing weight when ex called her ‘fat’

Jen Atkin, 26, from Grimsby in the UK, weighed around 112kg, but she shed nearly half her body weight after her devastating ordeal.

“In the week, I would eat huge portions of pasta or pizza then a family-size chocolate bar,” she said. The couple planned to marry in the years that followed, but because Jen reached 112kg, her ex-fiance decided to end their relationship. She realised how far she had come after being selected as one of the 10 finalists in her first pageant, Miss Genting Sheffield in 2017.“It was such a shock. Three years ago I would never ever expected to be winning Miss GB,” she said after being named the 75th Miss Great Britain.

Revenge? Why it take her husband leaving her for her to get off her arse. Ridiculous. And if he isn't attracted to her because she's fat that's his choice.

She owes him

I decided to go the other way... It's hard being admired just for your body.... Took me 35 yrs.... But issue resolved

Did he came back crawling?

Well perhaps her ex did her a favour, no one ain’t gonna lose weight eating junk everyday whilst feeling sorry for themselves.

Fat Shaming works. Anyone can do it. All that's needed is discipline and motivation.

I wish her the best and new life, and hope she will find love in her life. Just ignore the silly people on social media.

so fat shaming works then? He may have saved her life. Good on her

Fat shaming 101! She had no hope at 112kgs, essentially a loser in life! But since she lost half her weight things are AWESOME!!

You do realise that by sharing this article, you're complicit in fat shaming? You're celebrating someone going from fat to thin. When are you going to celebrate someone going from thin to fat?
