A woman who went through a dramatic weight loss was deemed a security risk by her employers – after they no longer recognised her from her security pass photo.
Sian Murphy, 22, shed 9 stone in just ten months after ditching her unhealthy diet and dropped from a size 26 to a slimline size six.
The customer service worker from Southampton looked so different that she was apprehended by security when trying to enter her building – and her boss had to vouch that it was definitely her to the guard on duty.

Quite a transformation: Sian Murphy, 22, from Southampton dropped ten dress sizes after deciding to lose weight and looked so different that the security staff in the building where she worked questioned whether it was really her on her ID card
Downward spiral: Sian started a new job and would order nightly takeaways to save herself on the cooking and washing up
Rather than feel annoyed at the slight, Sian was proud she no longer looked like the obese girl pictured on her security card.
Sian, who ballooned to 17st 10lb after gorging on burgers and other sugary snacks, now weighs a trim 8st 2lb.
She says: ‘I’d passed the same security man for months so when he said he didn’t know who I was, I thought he was joking at first.
No going back: Sian says she has so much more energy than prior to her weight loss
By September 2015 she weighed 9st, having lost a whopping 8st 10lb in just ten months.
It was then, during a random check at her office, that she was stopped by a member of security.
Sian says: ‘I showed the guard my pass but he just shook his head.
‘He thought it belonged to someone else. I totally respected that he was doing his job properly because I had to admit I didn’t look anything like the girl in the picture on the pass any more.’
Sian has lost even more weight since by switching Cambridge Weight Plan shakes for healthy meals and now weighs 8st 2lb.
She says: ‘I walk everywhere and cook all my meals from scratch. For the first time ever, I am going to wear a bikini on holiday this year.
‘I have never owned one before. I’m so proud I am bikini-body ready.’
