Mum-of-four Patty Sanchez spent years piling on the pounds with the encouragement of her feeder ex-boyfriend, who got a kick out of helping her gorge on 13,000 calories a day.
But after realising the damage she was doing to her health, Patty, 52, split from her chubby-loving man in 2012 and has since shed 19st, bagging herself toyboy Bryan Johnson, 38, in the process.
Now Patty's new man is helping her slim down with a healthy diet - and plenty of action between the sheets.
Patty – who's 5ft8 and now weighs 32st - says: "Bryan has changed my life for the better. He keeps me active and we have a great sex life. My weight means there are some limitations to what we can do, but we're pretty adventurous.
"When I was gaining weight I developed high blood pressure and became breathless. I realised my health was in danger and I needed to lose weight.
"My relationship with my ex revolved around food and he wasn't happy when I decided to lose weight, so we split.
"But I've found the love of my life and he's helped me lose two stone. I feel healthier than ever."
