Bedding could not bear weight, so couple lost it
Published: 02 November 2009
After their bedding gave up the ghost as their weight got too much for it, a loving couple decided to lose over 20st between them and become healthier and happier.
A disaster in the bedroom caused a loving couple to shed a huge amount of weight between them to become thinner, happier and healthier.Weighing a combined 50st 12 months ago, Natalie and Stephen Ball were lying in bed one evening when their bedding gave up the ghost, with their bed's frame snapping in the middle and causing them both to hit the floor, the pair told the Daily Mirror.
Since then, the couple vowed to be more kind to themselves and their bed linen and lost a huge 24st between them, seeing Natalie drop from a size 28 to a ten and Stephen falling to 17st from a big 31st 7lbs.
"We fancy each other again," Stephen gleefully announced to the newspaper. "In fact, sometimes I feel like I'm cheating because I hardly recognise the woman in our bed!"
Stephen also suffered from sleep apnoea, which is deemed to be a serious condition which collapses the airways and hurts the quality of breathing, which can eventually lead to a much-shortened life expectancy.
