What a difference - she is a very pretty lady and losing that weight has enhanced this even more. Well Done Dawn.

[trionam]

Wow she looks great fair play to her!

[ojread2]

Makes a mockery of all the years she declared she was happy to be fat
I agree she looks fab though

[anneasquith]

she looks fabulous .

[fliptheswitch]

Hey TOWIE :-)
She looks amazing, doesn't she!

[jackthehat]

I don't think it makes a mockery of what she said before.
At that time in her life she was happy with her looks.........she's since changed her mind.

I've always thought that she is incredibly pretty and absolutely agree with TOWIE.

[ummmm]

I don't think it makes a mockery either. She also has her health to think about.

[fliptheswitch]

I've always thought that, too - that she's always been very attractive.

I hope she doesn't do a Pauline Quirk and lose too much, though. IMO she's gone a bit overboard.

[Meg888]

She looks fab! I don't agree it makes a mockery of what she previously said. Lets face it, we're all getting older, and if you're overweight life is going to be a bit of an uphill struggle. Also mass weight loss can have a drastic effect on looks - ie some can tend to look aged in the face, but she doesn't at all - she looks great on it. Well done

[fliptheswitch]

Meg, I agree. Just because someone's said they were once happy being a "larger lady", doesn't mean they can't change their mind.
It's knocked ten years off her!

[TOWIE]

Morning All - I agree some people lose too much weight and it makes them age - good example of that was Fern Briton - I think she looked better in the face when she had more weight.

[fliptheswitch]

Yes, forgot about Fern. Another case of someone who took it too far! her face was much prettier when it was fuller.

[TOWIE]

It also didn't do Fern's career much good either, Flip (:o((

[fliptheswitch]

Weirdly, she came across as a happier person when she was bigger. More likeable, I think. Think she got a bit *too* confident/cocky after her huge weight loss, which is never a good characteristic.
Right. Gotta get on with some work now... Have a nice day! :-)
P.S Wasn't TOWIE good last night!

[TOWIE]

arrr love Joey's speech about Chloe - I wanna adopt him (:o))

I'm off to now for a shower. See ya all later. x

Here we go again about Pauline Quirke and weight loss - she is in clinical terms still over weight at 13 stone

Either of these women and others before her such as Fern Britton will lose as much as they wish to lose
They *only* look as if they have 'lost too much' because skin stretches and will now look saggy and as if it is hanging off bone, it isn't
Big Women cannot win - too fat or too thin someone will ALWAYS judge them

I stand by my first post - what I suppose I meant was no fat person is really happy with their over weightedness (yeah, I know it's not a word)

[boxtops]

She looks fabulous. I know what she meant about being fat and happy - then you realise that you could be healthier (and possibly live longer) if you can get some weight off. Good on you, Dawn!

[joggerjayne]

When she was fat ... she was happy.

Now she's slimmer ... she's happy.

How good is that !!!

I wish more people could just be constantly happy with the way they are.

[VHG]

Mind you, splitting up with Lenny Henry and then getting a divorce may have something to do with Dawns's weight loss.

Also Jennifer Saunders has had cancer so maybe that was a medical "shock" to Dawn so she has decided to lose some weght due to worries about Diabetes perhaps.

[rowanwitch]

she's still around 16 stone.... amazing what a great smile and well cut clothes can do... the best message is be happy in your own skin

[craft1948]

She lost about 20 stone of useless fat when she got rid of Lenny...........
