WOMAN LOSES 13ST AFTER BEATING HALF-TON POTATO ADDICTION

A woman has lost over 13st after beating her addiction to POTATOES. Trisha Corbett, 26, was once so addicted to spuds that she scoffed on half a ton of them per year. Whether it was chips, roasties, mash or a jacket potato oozing with butter, she just couldn’t get enough. But after her weight soared to a massive 26st 11lbs, size 30 Trisha decided to ditch the spuds once and for all. Now the trainee teacher has lost an incredible 13st 4lbs and is a slinky size 14. Trisha, from Newcastle West, Co. Limerick, Ireland, said: “I’d always been overweight, and as a child my parents struggled to find clothes to fit me.
