A lack of love for herself was the cause of so many issues in the dark days of her life
Trisha Lewis: We can be so hard on ourselves over a bag of chips or a glass of wine

'I’ve more self-acceptance than I ever had in my life by being me.'

Trisha Lewis has come a very long way from the dark days of 2017 when she rang the Samaritans looking for help to battle her demons. Back then, she worked as a chef, weighed 26 stone, and was in despair after cancelling her plans for gastric-band surgery.

Today, she has 208,000 followers on the hit Instagram page known as Trisha’s Transformation. She has written two best-selling books: Trisha’s Transformation: Beat the Bulge and Still Indulge and the recently released Trisha’s 21-Day-Reset. She is a motivational speaker, a brand ambassador for supermarket chain Aldi, and is working with Dove on its Self-Esteem Project which aims to foster positive body image among young people.
