WOW! - by Grace Back
  • 21 Feb 2018

Alycia Galbraith was left heartbroken after being dumped by new groom Mat Lockett on this season Married At First Sight. Now, the jilted bride has shared her incredible weight loss journey and fans are truly shocked.

The 29-year-old reality star, who is also a certified fitness instructor, proudly shared a throwback picture of herself 42kgs heavier. 

Alycia reveals she lost the weight by cutting all 'toxic people' out of her life.

// S U P E R nervous to post this, but here we go...(please be kind!) When the producers on Married at First Sight learnt about my weight loss journey, I was asked if I had any photos of myself at my biggest to include in my backstory, as it is a significant part of my life. I said no to sharing photos initially as it is hard to look at them myself let alone have others judge me! Despite my smile, I wasn't a happy person in the photo on the left. I was in a bad relationship I didn't have the strength to leave at the time, I was constantly criticised for the way I looked & rebelled by eating more. Literally the only reason I said yes to sharing my story in the end is because I was promised that it would help people & I really hope it can. People ask me how I succeeded in changing my appearance & I truly believe that a positive mind attracts wonderful things - this is where my transformation began. I grew mentally determined to become a healthy person purely for myself & my body followed. I got rid of anything/anyone toxic in my life, altered my diet & within 3 months I lost the first 12kgs. Over time I've managed to lose more than 30kgs & now feel the best I ever have! // 💖 // #weightlossjourney #transformation #beforeandafter #newperson #positivemind #determination #strong #changeisrewarding #diditforME #hardworkpaysoff #worthit #challenge #diet #exercise #wellness #fitness #healthiswealth #bekindtoyourself #healthylifestyle #onwardsandupwards #thanksfortherunningshotwomansday //

In the lengthy caption, Alycia reveals why she didn't want to show off her weight loss on Married At First Sight. 

She writes, 'When the producers on Married at First Sight learnt about my weight loss journey, I was asked if I had any photos of myself at my biggest to include in my backstory, as it is a significant part of my life.

Alycia continues, 'People ask me how I succeeded in changing my appearance & I truly believe that a positive mind attracts wonderful things - this is where my transformation began.
