- But first, I want to share
the ultimate revenge body story.
This is amazing and she's living
all of our best lives.
After a woman was dumped by her ex fiance,
she started living her best life.
She changed her lifestyle,
lost more than half her weight.
That's right.
That's what I said.
Half of her weight. Okay.
And went on to be crowned Miss Great Britain 2020.
I love this woman.
She is totally my spirit animal at this point and hero.
So let's bring Jen in here.
What's up Jen?
- Hi.
- Well you are stunning.
That's the word I should say.
I mean just stunningly beautiful.
Can you kind of take us back
to the break up and like what happened?
- So I was with my ex for 4 years
and we had a house together.
We were getting married
and we were really comfortable together.
Weight never bothered us.
I piled and piled on the weight
because I was so comfortable and happy
and then on my 22nd birthday,
he left and went to be with another woman.
- Oh
- And, it was, I know, it was absolutely devastating
for me at the time.
And I just ate and drank
and just ate my feelings really
and I stood on the scales and I was over 250 pounds
and I was like,
Oh I need to change.
Something needs to change.
(dog squealing)
- Sorry that was my dog Henry he agreed with you.
- So what changes did you make to get to the..
coz that's, I mean I've seen the side by side pictures,
that's big change.
So what changes did you do?
- So I actually lost over 110 pounds
and I mean this took a lot of hard work
and a lot of determination
but I started banking, I started walking
and being really active.
I just fell in love with the gym
and I started to teach myself how to cook
by just watching YouTube and eating a lot healthier
and it made me feel so good
not just on the outside
but I felt amazing on the inside too
and I started volunteering at a homeless shelter
which was incredible
and from there I actually got scouted
for my first ever pageant.
- That had to feel pretty incredible.
Like having so much loss
emotionally and mentally and it kind of draining you
and you're working up to that moment
and then having that win at a pageant.
That had to have been
I mean Miss Great Britain that's incredible.
- Yeah. Oh my goodness,
I still can't even believe it now
cause I'm still that person.
Like I still have those same personality
as I did have 5 years ago
and still have all the same friends
and keep grounded which is amazing
and it's just really made be believe that
if you put your mind to something
you can achieve it.
Not just losing weight
and not just losing Miss Great Britain
but anything in life as long as
you have the right mentality,
and you have goals and you just, you know, work hard.
But you really can achieve anything.
And, I mean walking on the Miss Great Britain stage
after achieving so much
just being my normal self.
I mean I still have stretch marks.
I still have saggy, wobbly bits
but who cares?
I am so proud of who I am.
I'm still a curvy girl.
I'm still me and I won being me
and it was the most incredible feeling
and I'm just so proud.
- [Kelly] Yeah, no I'm incredibly proud of you
and we just met.
I think that's incredible
- Thank you so much
- And I have to ask this question
and I know that coming from a girl.
Have you talked to your ex since?
Cause I know your ex is seeing you,
so it's like...
- Yeah I've seen him a couple of times.
The first time he saw me after huge weight loss,
he had to do a double take
and that was great feeling.
I was like bye.
I mean we're friends now which is incredible
and I'm sure he's so proud of me
and I'm sure he's got massive regrets.
But I'd never take him back
and I've actually fallen in love
with someone new so happy ending!
- [Kelly] Oh, that is a happy ending.
Well it's lovely to have you on the show Jen
and congratulations on Miss Great Britain.
That's amazing.
- Thank you so much
- All right bye!
