Katherine Lynch has opened up about her impressive weight loss over the past number of months – and has credited Operation Transformation for enabling her to take part in Dancing with the Stars.
The Leitrim native took part in OT last year and shed an incredible 13.5lbs on the show, and she’s now revealed that if she didn’t kickstart her weight loss journey on the RTE programme, she wouldn’t have taken part in DWTS.
“Without Operation Transformation, I would not be doing this show,” Katherine told the Irish Independent.
“You wouldn’t be confident enough to do it for one and to be honest, you wouldn’t even be able to get any costumes to fit you. I’m still the biggest dancer out there, even though I’m watching everything I eat.”
The comedian also went on to say that although sometimes her DWTS costumes don’t fit correctly, she still feels incredible – and encourages those thinking of starting their weight loss journey to go ahead and do it!
“I find some of the costumes hard to get on and I’m still on my journey, but I’m feeling amazing,” she said.
“I would never fat shame, but I would say to people that you do feel better when you can move around easier and fit into nicer clothes. It’s a fact. I never even thought I was that unhappy before but now that I am really happy, you know, it’s a measure of it.”
We think Katherine’s an inspiration!
