At
a staggering 50st, Pauline weighed in at the world's heaviest woman after
gorging on a diet of 10,000 calories
each day
Pauline Potter became the world's heaviest
living woman last year, weighing in at a whopping 643 pounds. Now, Potter has
her sights set on losing weight, and she's turned to marathon sex sessions to
help shed the pounds.
In an
interview with the UK's Closer magazine, Potter described how her reignited sex
life with ex-husband Alex has helped her lose 98 pounds. “I can’t move much in
bed, but I burn 500 calories a session –- it’s great exercise just jiggling
around," Potter told Closer. Potter, who had been consuming 10,000
calories a day, hopes to reach her goal weight of 532 pounds with the help of
Alex.
The two have sex up to seven times each day. She
makes sure to have some fun, too.“We love foreplay and massages and, as well as
full sex, I pleasure Alex, too," she told the magazine. "My bed is
strengthened and, although I can’t buy sexy lingerie, I drape a nice sheet over
me.”After meeting online in 2002, the couple married in 2005 and, when Potter
failed to bond with Alex's son, the two split up three years later. The
break-up triggered Potter's weight gain.
She
began consuming copious amounts of high-calorie foods and packed on the pounds.With
all the extra weight on her, Potter became depressed. She contacted the
Guinness Book of World Records in hopes that winning the title of "World's
Heaviest Woman" would shame her into losing weight.
When Alex got wind of the publicity
surrounding Potter, he decided to visit her and the flame was quickly
rekindled. “Within the first day of being back together we had sex six times in
24 hours," Alex told the Sun last November. “Even though one of Pauline’s
legs weighs more than I do, we’re able to position her body to make sex
enjoyable for both of us
." Alex, who weighs just 140 pounds,
does most of the work in the bedroom.“It’s really dangerous for us to have sex
because at any moment the bed could collapse and one or both of us could be
seriously injured or even killed from the impact," he told the Sun.But
using sex for weight loss is not an unheard of activity. "Shagging can
make you slimmer, if you do enough of it," Dr. Yvonne Kristin Fulbright, a
sex educator, relationship expert, columnist and founder of Sexuality Source
Inc., wrote for Fox News in 2008. "It can also help the two of you fall for
each other all over again. Requiring no monthly fee — dress code optional – you
can 'sexercise' yourself into shape.
