I lost six stone and now have body insecurities – my boobs went from G cup to nothing but it’s the skin that’s the issue | The Sun

DESPITE feeling happier and healthier thanks to her six stone weight loss, Shannon Mitchell confessed she was left with several insecurities over her body. 

Shannon, from Belfast, explained that she once weighed over 15st, but after making gradual changes to her eating habits she managed to shed the pounds. 


And while she’s happy with the overall results, the body positivity influencer said there have been some consequences she’s found difficult to live with. 

Dressed in a light-beige t-shirt and a pair of high-waisted jeans for her TikTok video, she explained that she would be “really real for a second” to show what has happened to her body as a result of her weight loss that “I don’t really like”.

“I just want to say, I would still not change it for the world,” she then explained, before adding: “Although some of these things I can be a little bit insecure about, I would still rather have these little things than be the size I was before, when I was over 15 stone.” 

Standing up for people to see her full body length and outfit, she then shared: “This angle is really bad but it’s going to show everything off well.

“First things first, loose skin. I have loose skin. Who cares, right?”

Lifting one arm up, Shannon proceeded to pull on her underarm skin as she continued: “I have some loose skin here, under my arms.” 

Flexing her bicep, she added: “I think if I was to go to the gym, I could probably tone that up. But it doesn’t really bother me.” 

Leaning down and forward, she then showed where she has loose skin underneath her neck as well as some that she’s observed around her face, by her mouth. Both of these, she explained, she “might try and get fixed”.

Standing back up, she then lifted her shirt a fraction as she explained: “To be fair, I think I’ve been quite lucky with my stomach. I don’t have a lot of loose skin. The only time I would ever really notice it is if I twist…” 

Moving her torso to one side, she then said: “There we go, if I twist sometimes I can see it a little bit. But again, unless I go out of my way to show that, it’s not that bad.” 

While these were little bits that Shannon said she’s not quite as bothered about, there is one area she confessed has been the “worst”. 

“The worst thing for me is my boobs,” she said, before explaining that before she lost weight she wore a cup size of F or G depending on the bra, whereas now her breasts are much smaller. 


“I do prefer them that they are smaller… As you can see, I now have nothing. And the loose skin that I do have around my chest is wild,” she continued, pulling on the skin to demonstrate the elasticity of it. 

Shannon explained that she had stretch marks in the area as well and admitted that she would get a boob job if she was rich. 

“I hated my boobs when they were big, but I think I hate them even more now. I like them when I’m in clothes, but when I’m in underwear… No. I genuinely hate them,” she said. 

Despite this, she once again assured viewers that she would rather be this size with this insecurity rather than being 15st.


Besides this, Shannon said she believes she’s quite lucky with how her body has adapted to her weight loss.  

“If someone wants to be my sugar daddy and buy me a boob job, please do it, because I would take it gratefully,” Shannon joked as she concluded the clip. 

In a previous video, the blonde beauty told viewers that she lost approximately 5 stone within a year and another stone in the following six months. 

She managed to do this, Shannon said, by making “tiny changes in my daily life, with my routine, my eating habits, and then I went on to calorie count once I got used to the changes gradually happening”.

Shannon explained that she went through phases of exercise, but didn’t do it consistently and said she hadn’t been for eight months. 

People praised the Irish beauty on her journey in the comments, sharing their support in how open and honest she is about the side effects. 

“Everyone spots imperfections in themselves, but you are absolutely stunning, and I love the way you’re are open about you life,” [sic] one person said.

A second shared: “This probably might not mean much to you but you’re beautiful and you look amazing either way,” with a white heart emoji.
