As well as her arthritis, four years ago Gill was also told she had diabetes, but she is now in remission.
After quitting work and moving to a bungalow in Kirton, Gill checked her weight at home and found she weighed 23-and-a-half-stone.
Returning to Slimming World, Gill said: “I never thought I’d stick at it.” But she found the weight gradually began to come off.

“I’m wearing leggings for the first time in my life.”
A special mention should be given to Sarah Lote, consultant for Wyberton Slimming World.
Gill said: “Sarah has been a real help and everyone has been very supportive.”
Gill intends to continue with her healthier diet and said: “I never want to go back to where I was.”
She said: “I am so happy, I wish I’d done it years ago. It has changed my life.”
