A woman was spurred on to lose weight after seeing herself in unflattering summer holiday snaps.

Sarah-Jane Knox lost three stone after deciding she need to make a change - and has toned up her body more than she'd ever imagined possible.

But she says the secret behind her incredible new body is CUTTING cardio.

Her weight had slowly crept up and before she knew it she was having to buy clothes two dress sizes bigger than normal.

So the 28-year-old Belfast woman embarked on an overhaul which has completely changed her life.

Speaking to Belfast Live , Sarah-Jane told how she has gone from 12st 7lbs to 9st 7lbs, moving from a size 14 to an 8.

"Last summer I was starting to have to buy size 14 clothes, two bigger than what I would have worn," said Sarah-Jane, a civil servant.

"I saw a few pictures from being on holiday and something had to change.

"I work with a guy who is into fitness and he put me in touch with Anthony Byrne from Gymco Finaghy, he said a PT would be a good start.

"So I joined up and my goal was just to lose weight initially but I started lifting weights and it changed things. I had played hockey and would have done cardio but not weights.

"I started going to Anthony and he introduced me to weights and I would do that twice a week with him. He also got me a diet plan to follow and was in contact a lot to see how things were going.

"Over seven months I worked hard and stuck to it and the results have been amazing. Even just for my confidence but I am also feeling healthy and I have so much more energy and feel fitter . It has changed my life.

"I knew it was not going to be easy and I knew it was not going to be done in two months. I had tried all the fad diets and they never worked but setting a long-term goal helped.

"I had to put in the work for weeks before I saw the results.

"I would say before my view was you had to cut calories and do a lot of cardio to lose weight but Anthony showed me I could eat a lot of clean food and not exercise as much and still get the results.

"I think a lot of girls and guys think to lose weight you ave to eat nothing and exercise constantly but it's the opposite, it's about getting the right balance and fuelling your body."

Now Sarah-Jane has found a new lease of life and confidence she never had before.

She has even had a professional fitness shoot done to show how far she has come.

"I said I would never get a photoshoot but I did in the end and it was great, it has really helped my confidence," she said.

"I am looking forward to what's next, I have found I have a real interest in nutrition and fitness so who knows where it will lead."
