Caroline Pugh , 33 , from Wolverhampton , West Midlands , has revealed how she was shocked into losing seven stone after her six-year-old daughter Daisy drew a picture of her looking like a 'fat blob . ' Mrs Pugh , who now has three children , Daisy , six , Tizzy , four , and Teddy , two , with husband Andy , 37 , a warehouse manager , said she was embarrassed by what her daughter saw when she looked at her 19-stone mother . She said : ‘ It was so embarrassing when I saw the picture that Daisy had drawn . I didn ’ t realise that my children saw me as looking so huge . ' Caroline Pugh , 33 , used to weigh nearly 19 stone ( left ) but was shocked into losing seven stone ( right ) after her daughter drew a picture of her as a 'fat blob ' Despite having broken a chair just by sitting on it while pregnant , Caroline says it was the embarrassment of seeing a drawing by daughter Daisy ( left drawing in picture ) , which really gave her the motivation she needed to lose weight . Caroline continued : ‘ I got so tired running around after them all the time , my weight meant that I couldn ’ t keep up with them properly at all , which did upset me . 'When I saw that picture I knew that I really had to do something about losing weight . ' Though it was n't the first sign that her weight was getting out of hand , Caroline admits it was the trigger she needed . She said : ‘ I ’ d tried to push it to the back of my mind . With three young children to look after , my own appearance wasn ’ t a priority , but my health was suffering too . 'When I was 12 weeks pregnant with Teddy I actually broke a kitchen chair . I ’ d sat down on it , and it completely gave way beneath my weight . ' The mother of three , pictured here with son Teddy , two , and daughters Daisy ( left ) , six , and Tizzy ( right ) , four , says that she now feels like a completely different person after dropping five dress sizes . Before her weight loss Caroline used to skip breakfast , and snack on bread and crisps all day . Instead of home-cooked dinners , she says she 'd eat takeaways several times a week with husband Adam . She continued : ‘ This drawing really brought it home to me . I didn ’ t want my children drawing pictures of their fat mummy anymore . ' Before she changed her diet , Caroline ate crisps and up to three sandwiches or sausage rolls for lunch , before gorging on pizza and takeaways for dinner . She said : 'My diet was awful before . ' I ’ d completely skip breakfast then have lots of bread and crisps or sausage rolls for lunch ' Drawing of Caroline before weight loss , left , and drawing of her after the diet , right . She continued : 'We would have takeaways several times a week too and I just snacked on crisps all the time . ‘ When I started on the diet I still had takeaways but in moderation and I would snack on low fat crisps , fruit and yoghurt instead. ’ After seeking help from her local Weight Watchers group , Caroline says she started to lose the pounds quickly . Swapping her old diet for low fat cereal with skimmed milk at breakfast , and homemade , healthier lunches , Caroline has now dropped five dress sizes and weighs a much lighter 12 stone . She said : ‘ Everything has totally changed since I ’ ve lost all this weight , I feel like a completely different person . ' I feel so much healthier and I ’ ve got much more energy to run around and look after the children now . 'Andy says its like having a new wife . He ’ s very proud of me ' Left picture : Daisy and Caroline with the two pictures of Caroline as a slim mother ( left drawing ) and a larger mother ( right drawing ) , right picture : Caroline holds up the pictures . She continued : ‘ My children draw pictures of me now looking lovely and slim . ' I ’ m no longer a fat mummy , instead I ’ m a yummy mummy. ’ Despite all the praise from her husband however , along with being able to fit into slinkier , more fashionable clothes , Caroline says it was the first drawing from Daisy of her as a slimmer woman , which really gave her the reward she was looking for . She said : 'When I saw that new picture that Daisy had drawn , I felt very proud of what I had achieved . ' I can ’ t believe that I managed to lose so much weight . ' 'It was only a child ’ s drawing but it meant the world to me . ' Caroline says it was the first drawing from Daisy ( left ) of her as a slimmer woman , which really gave her the reward she was looking for .
