A woman who weighed 15st 9lbs has revealed how she lost an impressive 6st 5lbs after a cruel comment from a stranger on a dating website. At her biggest, Alexandra Ulverich, 32, from Southampton, was a size 16-18 and would gorge on two takeaways per week and share size bars of chocolate. But after a man on Tinder told her ‘A woman as big as you should be lucky that someone is showing interest', Alexandra decided to lose some weight. Now, less than two years on, she weighs 9st 4lbs and pole dances.
