One star from TLC reality show 1000lb Best Friends has shown off her weight loss results so far in a tiny bikini.
Ashely Sutton discovered she was the heaviest of all her friends, weighing in at 378lbs, and was “unable to stand for long periods of time”.
Even after undergoing a gastric sleeve procedure, Ashely continued piling on the pounds. She initially dropped 65lbs but plateaued, explaining: “I just thought that the sleeve could do all the work for me, and I can just eat junk food and still lose weight.

“So, I eventually gained all of that back and then plus some.”
But now she’s been concentrating on becoming the healthiest version of herself, hitting the gym and concentrating on a healthy diet in order to qualify for a second surgery.
She’s already looking a lot fitter, and on Monday (July 3), she stripped to a tiny bikini to celebrate Pride.
In a new snap, Ashely posed alongside a fence amid a lush green garden, turned side-on to the camera with a pair of rainbow striped bikini bottoms and a matching black bra top.
She exposed her strong thighs and curvaceous frame while grinning at someone off-camera, letting her brunette tresses fall loose around her shoulders.
Ashely showed off her bright pink manicure while leaning on one arm against the fence, captioning her post: “Pride month is over, but I still have mine! Live, laugh, love.”
It comes a week after fans branded the star “beautiful” as she posed in a cut-out swimsuit amid a perfect blue ocean.
Ashely donned a turquoise floral one-piece with spaghetti straps over her bust, matching things up with a pair of retro Aviator shades and letting her hair fall in natural curls as she pouted for the lens.
“It’s SUMMAH!” she declared in the caption, as fans – and her co-stars – rushed to comment.
