Then, as Chris waved goodbye and headed out to work, she would systematically empty the fridge and raid the cupboards, eating as much as she could before he got home.

A stone is 14 pounds, no? That’s a lot of weight she lost!

So at 18, when a male friend asked her to marry him, she said yes.

Are we really there? Is it now necessary to distinguish the sex of the "friend" whom asks for a woman's hand in marriage? Guess so...

My diet is simple - No sugar, no flour, no processed foods. I try not to eat any grains. Lost 45 lbs in 4 years. Went from a 36 inch waist back to my ideal 32.

I eat everything else.

Did you see her wedding picture at the link? The quote should have read....

“So at 18, when a male friend (WHO WASN’T BLIND - IF YOU CAN BELIEVE THAT) asked her to marry him, she said yes.”

By losing over 200 pounds, she went from ridiculously obese to merely obese.

“Over the next eight years, Dawn went on to marry twice more. By her third wedding she was a size 36, had a 60in waist and wore a size 56L bra.”


Aye Carrumba!
