One star of TLC reality show My 3000lb Family has shown off her lithe figure in a full-body snap after losing around 500lbs.
Amanda Register shot to fame on the show, and was desperate to lose weight in order to undergo cancer surgery to remove a cancerous tumour.
But the operation couldn’t be completed until she reduced her weight to a less life-threatening level.
