AFTER splashing out on sexy black lingerie, Paige Way was excited for a romantic night away at a swanky hotel with her boyfriend. But she was left red-faced when her big night of passion ended in disaster after her man sheepishly told her that her belly was too big for them to MAKE LOVE. Office worker Paige, 22, from Sydenham, South East London had struggled with her weight since childhood and by the age of 18 had ballooned to a massive 23 stone and a size 28. At just 5ft 3in, her BMI was so high that doctors couldn’t measure it. Always the ‘fat one’ in her bunch of friends, Paige longed to feel attractive and her embarrassing sex mishap proved to be just the motivation she needed to change her life for good. She has now lost an incredible 13 stone and dropped EIGHT dress sizes to a svelte size 12.
