"Sex marathon to lose weight"

The Toronto Sun reported that a California woman who earned the title
of the world's fattest woman last fall says she's dropped 100 lbs
thanks to marathon sex sessions with her ex-husband, who said he
couldn't resist her after she packed on the pounds.

Pauline Potter weighed in at 643 lbs in September when she earned the
title of heaviest living woman from Guinness World Records.

It got to the point where the Sacramento woman couldn't go to the
bathroom by herself - she had to have her teenage son help her.

Three years ago, she left her husband Alex. But after he saw her world
record, he came back to visit her -- and they rekindled their
relationship.

"I can't move much in bed, but I burn 500 calories a session - it's
great exercise just jiggling around," Potter said Monday in an
interview with the U.K. magazine, Closer.

"I hadn't had sex in three years, but we did it six times," she told
the magazine of seeing Alex again. "He took charge as I couldn't move
much, but he was so attentive."

She said they have marathon sex sessions when Alex comes to visit from
Arizona, which has helped her lose weight -- something she's wanted to
do since before being named the fattest woman.

"I sweat off loads of calories. I call it 'sexercise,'" she said. "I
tell Alex he needs to visit more so he can help me shed the pounds
quicker."

Alex said he enjoys their romps in the bedroom, but told the magazine
they do have to be careful. "Once, when she got on top, I couldn't
breathe," he said.
