Like many women, the British singer Susan Boyle, now in her mid-fifties, has slowly gained weight over the years as she has gotten older. Diagnosed with Asperger's Syndrome, Susan Boyle also struggles with the pressures that have come with her newfound fame. This stress unfortunately caused her to gain even more weight by 2014.

Like Precious actress Gabourey Sidibe and Randy Jackson, Boyle was also inspired to embark on a celebrity weight loss transformation after being diagnosed with Type II diabetes. To avoid any bad health complications, Susan Boyle went on a no sugar diet, saying goodbye to "the sweeties," which was difficult as she (like many of us) admits to having a sweet tooth. In 2016, she lost about 50 pounds, the equivalent of at least 2 stone and 2 dress sizes!
