And while people used to say she looks like U.S. chat show host Ricki Lake, her new appearance is closer to Stranger Things star Millie, social media commenters agreed.
In a video on TikTok, Heather shared her astonishing before and after snaps and clips, writing over the top: "POV: you lose 121lbs with PCOS & shapeshift into Millie Bobby Brown".
"Cysters, they've found out we can shapeshift, what shall we do?" she captioned the TikTok.
Speaking to Fabulous Online, Heather insisted she "doesn't see" the likeness to Millie, but said "so many people have told me that on TikTok that I have just embraced it at this point!"
"I've been told I looked like Ricki Lake before and now I look like Millie Bobby Brown," she added.
"Both women are beautiful, and if it helps women find me so that they can have someone with PCOS who is in their corner advocating for them, I am all for it!"
And people in the comments section of the TikTok admitted they were blown away by just how much Heather looks like Millie.
"Omg you were not lying! You're her double!" one wrote.
"Holy sh*t you weren't kidding," another said.
"I truly was not expecting that," a third commented.
I'm so happy with my Mounjaro body after dropping 4 stone but there's a side effect I hate & trolls say I 'cheated'
"I for real thought your friends were just hyping you up, but sissssster, you look just like her!" someone else agreed.
"Oh my god!!! You really did shapeshift into Millie Bobby Brown!!" another gushed.
"You look amazing. Proud of you!"
"I was not prepared for the accuracy, but well done girl!!!" someone else said.
"From a PCOS girly to another, I understand how HARD it is to achieve that!"
"I thought this was gunna be a joke… you're literally her," another marvelled.

By Lucy Gornall, personal trainer and health journalist
EXERCISE can be intimidating and hard to devote yourself to. So how do you find the right workout for you?
As a PT and fitness journalist, I've tried everything.
I've taken part in endless fitness competitions, marathons and I maintain a regime of runs, strength training and Pilates.
Fitness is so entrenched in my life, I stick to it even at Christmas!
The key is finding an activity you love that can become a habit.
My top five forms of exercise, especially if you're trying to lose weight, are:
Walking
Running
Pilates
High-intensity interval training (HIIT)
Strength training
As someone else wrote: "Omg?? You were not exaggerating. Twins!"
Others questioned just how Heather had managed her amazing transformation, and asked her for weight loss tips.
In response, she told Fabulous that "finding what works wasn't easy", but once she swapped her meal plan, added supplements and upped her physical activity, the weight started to come off.
"Life finally feels so much easier," she smiled.
"I feel more like myself and I don't remember the last time I did.
"People may see Millie in certain clips, but I finally see me!"

Meghan shares emotional Father's Day tribute to Harry with never-before-seen footage showing Duke doting and playing with their children Archie and Lilibet
Meghan Markle has shared an emotional Happy Father's Day post featuring never-before-seen footage of a doting Prince Harry playing with their two children. In another example of the privacy-loving Sussexes recently sharing more insights into their home life, Meghan has posted a lengthy video featuring photos and clips of Archie, six, and Lilibet, four, with their father through the years. The Duchess of Sussex described the father of her children as 'the best', adding: 'Happy Father's Day to our favorite guy.' She shared a heartwarming snap showing a Happy Father's Day banner hanging from their garden in Montecito, California, where Harry could be seen clutching his two children tightly on his lap. In a series of clips, with Jason Mraz's Have it All playing in the background, the duke is also seen cuddling his children when they were newborns and playing with them on the beach, in a waterfall and on a swing. The duke is also filmed teaching Archie how to ride a bike as the Sussexes gave an unprecedented glimpse into their lives since leaving Britain for California when they stepped down as working royals in 2020. Meghan shared the snap with her 3.8million followers on Sunday, at which time she had not posted any tribute to her own father Thomas Markle, 80, whom she has been estranged from for a number of years. While just months ago, the couple had rarely shared a glimpse of their two children online, Meghan has increasingly uploaded photos of the pair to her Instagram account in recent weeks. Further videos from Meghan's Father's day post shows doting father Harry dancing with his son in their kitchen and playing around with on the grass. In other clips Archie is also seen kicking a ball around with his dad and laughing together as Harry reads him a bedtime story. Another heartwarming picture shows Harry cuddling with his daughter Lilibet as they sit on a beach looking out at the ocean and cradling her in his arms while sitting on a plane. Clips of the father-daughter duo also show Lilibet's apparent fondness for animals as she is seen feeding a carrot to a horse in a huge timber stable and getting friendly with a heard of goats in an outdoor pen. The post also offers a unique glimpse into what appears to be a number of family trips abroad, with clips showing Archie and Lilibet surrounded by glorious ocean views and palm tree covered landscapes. One snippet shows the brother and sister racing along a white sandy beach in front of a huge rocky mountain, as Harry and Meghan slowly walk behind them. Another also shows them splashing around in the sea together in front picturesque clear blue skies. While just a few months ago, a picture of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's adorable children was deemed a rarity, the pair have been increasingly sharing more and more insights into their home life. The reveals have been firmly marked by an increased social media presence from Meghan, who has made several posts in the last few months. Many offer followers a glance at their life in Montecito, including never before seen snaps of Archie, six, and Lilibet, four. Some posts even include footage where you can hear their voices, in sweet home videos. Several of the posts Meghan shared on Instagram featuring glimpses of the children were in the run-up to the release of With Love, Meghan. One video Meghan shared featuring Lilibet (alongside Serena Williams) was tagged with the caption: '3 days until the party begins. All are invited @Netflix.' Archie and Lilibet were also featured briefly in a short clip played when Meghan appeared on the Drew Barrymore show at the beginning of March. During the episode, the Duchess revealed she had enlisted her children to help in the kitchen as she baked hundreds of cookies for guests attending the Drew Barrymore Show. Then just last week, Meghan uploaded a series of snaps memorable family trip to Disneyland to celebrate Lilibet's fourth birthday, in which she hide both of their faces with heart emojis. Earlier on Sunday, Kensington Palace also shared pictures of Harry's brother Prince William enjoying a warm embrace with his three children, Prince George, 11, Princess Charlotte, 10, and Prince Louis, seven In one of the pictures, shared on Instagram, the royal's children - all sporting cosy dusky green ensembles beam as they face the camera; and William's hands are affectionately on his kids' shoulders. And in a second more candid black and white snap, the youngsters all tackle their father with hugs, laughing as they play around in some grass together. 'Happy Father's Day, Papa,' the caption read, highlighting that the more posed picture with the family smiling for the camera is the 'before', while the more candid black and white shot of them giggling together is the 'after'. 'We love you! G, C & L.' Both of the images were captured by one of the family's trusted professional photographers, Josh Shinner. The sweet post proves to be yet another break from tradition for Prince William's wife Kate, who has over the years put herself behind the lens to capture family moments. But earlier this year, for her son Prince Louis's birthday, Josh too was the cameraman behind the seven-year-old's portrait. The photo of Louis appears to have been taken on the same day as the adorable family photo unveiled today, while the Waleses were in Norfolk. 'Happy Father's Day, Papa,' the caption read It comes as on Saturday, the family was out to celebrate Trooping the Colour. On Saturday the country came together to mark King Charles' official birthday amid a spectacular display of military pomp and pageantry before the Royal Family waved to crowds from the balcony of Buckingham Palace as part of an annual tradition.

Exclusive London restaurant beloved by A-listers including Tom Cruise and Prince Harry leaves people horrified over 'inhumane' window display
Social media users have criticized Novikov Restaurant for displaying a live crab in its window. The celebrity hotspot in Mayfair, which charges £1000 for a whole crab, features a water tank in its front window, which homes the sea animal presumably before it's cooked for customers. TikTok user Marta Kalinowska took to the platform to share footage of the setup, which has proved triggering for thousands of viewers. The clip, which has amassed three million views, shows the crab as it looks out onto the street. 'Novikov in London tortures alive crabs in their windows,' Marta wrote. She continued, 'The tank is extremely tiny, they barely have any space to move. They are suffering until they end up on someone's plate, they are suffocating and clearly in extreme distress.' 'I feel powerless, please help me to blow [the] video so we can change this. You're welcome to leave them a review about it too.' She additionally claimed that the restaurant is deleting reviews that discuss the topic online in the caption, writing, 'Google reviews are being deleted so you are welcome to email/ call them… Thank you so much, sending you lots of love.' Viewers took to the comment section to share their thoughts, and many expressed their disgust with the setup. One wrote, 'Shame on Novikov! I'll leave review later! Poor babies…they don't deserve it. 'I wish I could do it with the people who [have] done it to them - at least for few months and ask them how they felt about it. I bet they wouldn't like it.' A second person agreed, questioning, 'Horrifying. What is wrong with us as a species?' A third wrote, 'I love crabs. Why can't they give them a bigger tank. At least let them live until they die.' MailOnline has contacted Novikov Restaurant for comment. However, others took a different stance and failed to see an issue with the display. One wrote, 'Can't imagine caring about the living conditions of a crab for a few hours before it gets eaten.' Another added, 'More cruel things happen to other animals people eat every single day.' It comes after the Ritz's long-standing chef has claimed the hotel's two-Michelin-starred restaurant's £221 tasting menu is the 'best value in London'. John Williams MBE, The Ritz Restaurant's executive chef for over 20 years, curated a high-end menu using only the finest ingredients. Despite charging £221 for the seven-course The Epicurean Journey menu or £199 for the five-course version, he 'solemnly' believes his cuisine is the best value in the city. The seven-course experience allows diners to sample the best Williams MBE has to offer and includes signature plates of native lobster, duck liver, Dorset crab and pigeon. Because the chef goes above and beyond to source the finest British ingredients and ensures his kitchen employs the 'highest level of technique', Williams MBE believes his prices are a steal. 'I believe solemnly, 100 per cent, [that] I'm the best value in London, for cost of product and then selling price. Value for money is everything that I believe in,' he told The Telegraph. When Williams MBE started his role at The Ritz in 2004, his first change was to lower the prices of the menu du jour by £10 - which was a significant amount 21 years ago. The tasting menus can change depending on what produce is in season and feature an array of signature dishes. While most fine dining establishments strive for the best ingredients, Williams MBE believes he takes his produce sourcing to the next level. 'You could interview 100 chefs, they're all going to say that,' he said. 'Let me tell you there's only about three or four of them looking for the very, very best, and capable of paying the very, very best. Some of my ingredients are extreme in price.' Williams MBE told The Telegraph that he buys his Dublin Bay prawns for up to £9 each and the champagne and lobster sauces on his turbot dish are so precise, they are the sole responsibility of one chef. On today's seven-course epicurean menu, diners start with a plate of Dorset crab with crème fraiche and imperial caviar before being served a ballotine of duck liver with damson, a small plum-like fruit, and pistachio. Third in the line-up is the Native lobster with spiced carrot and lemon verbena then the Agnolotti, a stuffed pasta, with black truffle and Parmesan. Next is the chestnut-fed pigeon then dessert starts with grapefruit with lemon pepper and buttermilk. There is the decadent Ritz Signature Chocolate hazelnut and fudge to finish off the meal. The £199 five-course menu has the crab and duck liver, and Suffolk lamb as well as the famous Cornish turbot with two sauces; one made from lobster and the other from the Ritz Reserve Champagne Barons De Rothschild. For dessert, diners are served the grapefruit and, to finish, wild strawberry with lemon verbena and lime. To accompany the food, customers can add five or six glasses of wine selected to pair perfectly with the Epicurean Journey. Wine packages range from £140 to £750 meaning, with the 12.5 per cent discretionary service charge, one diner could pay almost £1,000 for the entire experience. According to The Ritz's website, the menus are 'fitting ways to impress a client with a corporate lunch, enjoy quality time with friends or family over a weekend lunch, or celebrate a special occasion with a memorable dinner.' Those who can fork out the eye-watering prices will have to wear their finest attire so as to not break the Ritz's strict dress code. Men are required to wear a jacket and tie and ripped jeans, trainers and sportswear are explicitly forbidden. Last week, The Ritz Restaurant was named the UK's best at the National Restaurant Awards. Speaking exclusively to MailOnline, Williams MBE, said, 'With so many great restaurants across the UK, it is a true honour and privilege to receive this recognition. 'This award is a testament to our commitment to culinary evolution and affirms that, whilst The Ritz Restaurant is part of an historic landmark, it continues to remain relevant.' 'London's most decadent dining room is a wonderful and memorable assault on the senses,' the National Restaurant Awards wrote after revealing the prestigious rankings. Alongside the restaurant's 'exceptional' food, judges noted the allure of the opulent dining room settings.
