Sex helps ‘World’s Fattest Woman’ shed 100 pounds
I’ve gained a little weight lately and I thought it was due to hitting middle age.
But, a recent article I read about a woman who lost 100 pounds by having lots of sex has me rethinking that theory.
Clearly, the solution is to have sex seven times a day like Pauline Potter, who was once dubbed the “World’s Fattest Woman” by Guinness, a company that at one time created both delicious beer and a book of world records.
Potter, no relation to Harry, alleges her sex life became magical after her ex-husband, who had read about her record weight of more than 700 pounds, decided to visit her.
The Closer Online article states “they now make love up to seven times in one day, despite [140-pound] Alex risking suffocation if Pauline gets on top.”
Wiry Alex allegedly does “most of the work in the bedroom,” but Pauline says “it’s great exercise just jiggling around.”
The 47-year-old Californian began binge eating Big Macs when she and Alex split in 2008. She gained so much weight she could no longer walk.
But in the seven months since Alex started visiting, she’s lost 100 pounds and can now stand up under her own power.
Alex, who visits eight days a month, needs to “visit more so he can help me shed the pounds quicker,” said Pauline, who hopes to drop down to 530 pounds so she can move to Arizona with her once and perhaps future husband.
Hopefully there’s some truth to this diet plan, else I may have to consider the old fashioned way of proper diet and exercise.

Her ex must be Mandingo in order to have intercourse.

Let’s face it, if you’re having sex 7 times in one day, there’s not much time left for eating.

I would believe it, because an active sex life with a regular partner was part of my weight loss success. After I left my husband, who had no sex drive, I dropped 100lb in less than a year. I didn’t so much change my diet but as time went on I naturally ate less, but I finally had a regular sex life, was working a physically demanding job and going out 2-3x a week dancing. After talking to my doctor about my weight, his comments while I was married and explained my marital situation, his exact words were, “Too bad you can’t just have regular sex, it’s the best workout there is. You have your cardiovascular activity, it helps keep you limber and works muscles in your torso that don’t normally receive much attention in your every day life.”
The years I have been celibate after my 2 years of an active sex life, I gained weight again, luckily not all of it, but when I’m having regular sex, the weight falls off. Not to mention all of the endorphin’s, which make you happier. All the nay-sayers can think what they want, but an active sex life is important to your diet and exercise and a key factor to staying healthy.

Maybe she has a brother. I’m into bears and that could be a serious bear run.
