Bantry loses over 71 st

ADRIAN Cronin said that this week – week eight of his Operation Transformation – was ‘more of the same’ – walking, squashing, and gyming.

But not only is our Adrian lighter on his feet – having lost another 2lbs this week – he found his clothes had become decidedly loose, so he popped into The Man’s Shop where John O’Connor (above) helped him select a new wardrobe.

Adrian’s success in losing weight and getting fit has been reflected in the wider community because Bantry’s Operation Transformation group has lost a staggering 1,000lbs – or 71 stone and 4lbs to be precise.

Although February 29th is the last day of the programme, the group will carry on and have agreed to host ‘a gathering’ in April that will include a fun 5k.
