Teen becomes role model after losing 13 stone

A TEENAGE slimming champion said yesterday his life had changed 100% since losing more than half his body weight.

Daniel Sadler, 18, from Barry, South Glamorgan, lost 13st 1lb in a year and a half, beating other 15- to 21-year-old hopefuls from around the country to be crowned by competition organisers Slimming World.

Mr Sadler earned £2,000 (€1,400) for his feat, which he began in December 2005 when he joined the organisation at nearly 26st.
