I was 245 kilos, now I’m too skinny

Radio host Robyn Lewis has found losing weight a little too easy…

As she bundles up piles of size 10 women’s clothing for op-shop recycling, former 245kg heavyweight Robyn Lewis finds it hard to contain a smirk.

“I used to dream of getting down to a size 14,” says the 49-year-old Perth radio announcer, grinning. “Now I’m a size six, 59kg and my size 10 clothing is too big for me! I feel fabulous. I pretty much have the perfect body, at last.”

But not everyone is happy. Robyn’s doctor has told her she’s too skinny and ordered her to eat more waffles and ice-cream. “I’ve been waiting my whole life to hear those words – ‘too skinny’. I take it as a compliment,” she says with a laugh, adding she finally has her weight under control.
