A WOMAN from Rickmansworth has dropped six dress sizes after vowing to lose weight to prevent her daughter from getting bullied.
Mrs Rachel Caterer of Park Road, Rickmansworth, shed a hefty six stone in just over a year because she didn't want her ten-year-old daughter bullied for having a large mother.
"The decision to lose weight came after her daughter, Chelsea, came home from school and wouldn't eat for a day and a half,' Mrs Caterer said.
"I found out afterwards someone had called her big.
"She's not but it made me very conscious that I didn't want her bullied because she's got a fat mother.
"For me that was it, I had a reason to lose weight for someone other than myself.
"I wanted to teach her to eat healthily and exercise," she said.
