But after learning about her PCOS diagnosis, a hormone imbalance affecting women that can lead to acne, infertility and difficulty losing weight, Scarlett, who lived in Dubai, set about changing her lifestyle. 'I was also bullied at secondary school for my fat legs – which were not fat, they were just strong and muscly. Fed up with the diets that never worked and feeling unhappy with her body, Scarlett decided to try something new, joining a local gym and doing 30-minute boxing classes every day. In July 2018, Scarlett flew to Thailand to join a five-week fitness retreat, where she discovered Muay Thai – a boxing and martial art sport that became key to her body transformation. Scarlett has documented her transformation on Instagram @little_red_dynamite and also runs a podcast called With Purpose, where talks about her transformation journey.
