Susanna's figure continues to change and while I think that she genuinely did slim down in 2023 she was still struggling to hide the excess inches that she has gained on her middle. Wearing belts and sucking in her tum on screen and posting full length insta pictures with the camera well back. Her spare tire has shrunk, but it's still there It's all a far cry from 2012 when she was confident enough to have her trim 26 inch waist measured live on BBC breakfast for a piece on obesity 😮 I wonder what that measurement is now

At first she kept squeezing into her old wardrobe too!!!!

Here's some vintage Carol. Likes purple, belts to hold her tum in and showing off her bust which has got bigger over the years ...

Here's some extracts for the article that goes with the pictures "Brandi first stepped onto the fitness scene when she was an 18-year-old college freshman ... she joined a gym in her hometown of Haines City, Florida, and began doing regular cardio. It was the owner of the gym who one day approached her about doing some modelling ... " "At her first Ms. Galaxy in 1994, Brandi surprised even herself by taking first place in the physique round. She went back for more in 1995 and captured the same title ... While success is one thing, staying power is quite another. As time passed, her winning formula for diet and exercise began to feel more and more like hard work. For six years, from age 19 to 25, her whole life had revolved around fitness competitions" "In the last couple of years, Brandi has eased away from her hardcore fitness lifestyle ... More recently she gave birth to a beautiful boy named Brock. In most respects, new mom Brandi is happier now than ever. The only thing spoiling her otherwise perfect life is the stubborn, persistent fat that’s now clinging to her body. “I don’t feel like myself anymore,” she says disgustedly. “It’s really amazing how being overweight can affect you. It makes you feel sluggish. I find it much harder to move around quickly. There’s no way I could spend the rest of my life like this!” " "Is it realistic, then, to think that Brandi can beat the overwhelming odds and go back to being her super-fit self? The ever-optimistic Brandi says, yes! “It’s kind of scary when you know you’re so overweight and really need to get in shape, but I’m confident that I can do it,” she says with determination. “I’m ready to get back on track!”" "As Brandi prepares to shed the fat from her hips, thighs, and butt, she’s agreed to provide candid reports on her progress" TLDR: Top competitive body builder puts on weight and take Hydroxycut to get it off again

From my archives. When an old school body builder gained weight ...

It looks like Tonia has embraced her weight gain, these are from her Summer holidays

Wow! Barely recognisable from her early modelling days. This is what she used to look like

Latest update in insta

Some before and afters for you 2016 a trim, toned Tonia posing with her slim youngest daughter and last year Tonia modelling plus size lingerie with her oldest 😂

Sucking her tum in ...

Tonia still gamely squeezing into a bikini, but her post tells us she knows how much she has gained! 😂

Here is writer/presenter/model etc. Tonia. Back in 2014 she was happy to do retro fashion shoots and pose in bikini with her daughter. She's still wearing bikinis but now has a belly she needs to wear bigger bottoms to cover up

A Zara retrospective. A slim beach babe who's party lifestyle added pounds of flab to her waistline but still likes to pose in a bikini with her belly sucked firmly in!

I've found some more behind the scenes pics from that photoshoot, with Jasmine sucking her tum in when she strikes a pose. The photographer also gave put her on the Photoshop diet 😂 and as I predicted she's trying to get the pandemic pounds off

Susanna still smiling, sucking her tum in and posing before going on air, but the excess inches on her waistline are still pretty obvious
