Slim: Chantelle Johnson pictured after losing almost half her bodyweight in a year thanks to TV programme Extreme Makeover: Weight Loss

A student has stunned her family by almost halving her weight with the help of television programme Extreme Makeover: Weightloss - and getting fit enough to run marathon distances.

Chantell Johnson, from Egin, Illinois, shed a staggering 11.3st (159lbs / 72kg) - the fighting weight of champion boxer 'Marvellous' Marvin Hagler - in just a year.

Her dramatic weight loss made her eligible for the programme's special prize - skin removal surgery to get rid of the extra folds left behind by her departed fat.

Miss Johnson weighed in at a hefty 23.3st (327lbs / 148.3kg) when she was picked by Extreme Makeover trainer Chris Powell to turn her life around.

She agreed to follow his strict diet and arduous exercise programme - and at the 90 day weigh in had already shed a whopping 6.5st (92lbs / 41kg).

Her mother Shondra also weighed in with her and shed 1.7st (24lbs / 10.9kg).

But Miss Johnson began to struggle when she discovered she was being evicted from her apartment as the building was being knocked down.

She then stunned Powell with the decision that she was going to go back to school and finish a degree she dropped earlier - in Paris.

The weight-loss guru was dubious that she would be able to focus on her weightloss while juggling her university work.

But she did. And when Powell visited her in Paris she even ran 26.2 miles - a full marathon - on her own through the streets of the French capital.

At her subsequent six-month weigh in it was revealed she had lost a further 2.4st (34lbs / 15.4kg)

Then at the nine-month weigh in it emerged that she had lost a total of 11st (155lbs / 70.3kg), making her eligible for skin removal surgery.

Miss Johnson then unveiled her new body in front of family and friends, having lost a total of 11.3st (159lbs / 72kg), taking her weight from 23.3st (327lbs / 148.3kg) down to 12st (168lbs / 76.2kg).

In a blog written about her dramatic weight lossMiss Johnson says that while she hasn't yet learned to love exercise, the results have made it tolerable.

'I only wanted two things,' she writes. 'The legs of Serena Williams and the arms of Robin Roberts.

'Every exercise associated with achieving said results are painful. Lunges, push-ups and burpees were originally created to break down new recruits [military] in under 48hrs.

'My trainer achieves the same fear and obedience in the warm-up phase of our sessions. The reason I mention all of the facts above is because several people want to know my secret to success.

'The answer is...... Hours of hard work... everyday.'

Miss Johnson's transformation: Participants in the show are set weight loss goals for each of four stages, and rewarded if they reach it. By day 270 Miss Johnson shed so much weight she won skin removal surgery

The weight loss edition of the makeover show, now in its third season, has become extremely popular in the U.S., in large part down to the charisma and enthusiasm of trainer Chris Powell.

The strength of his belief in the participants is obvious as he pushes them to perform often bizarre exercises.

In the first series of the programme he made one participant climb a 103-storey building while pushing another so far in the gym she collapsed.

Every participant is set weight loss goals for each of four stages, and rewarded if they reach it with prizes such as a car.

During phase one of the programme Powell even moves in with the participants to ensure they can not cheat on the strict healthy eating plan or miss any workouts.

Participants can be offered plastic surgery after their weight loss to remove excess skin.
