SCHICKSALE - Familienglück in Gefahr: Vater konnte wegen starkem Übergewicht seine Kinder nicht mehr zu Bett bringen
Adam and Nicola on the night he proposed (PA REAL LIFE/Collect) *** Man who was so fat he could not put his children to bed
loses 10 STONE in a year to become a better dad
By James Butler, PA Real Life
A man who was so fat he did not have the energy to put his children to bed has lost 10
STONE in a year - saying it has 'made him a better dad'.
At his biggest in February 11 last year, Adam Newman, 34, from Long Eaton, Derbyshire,
weighed almost 24st - meaning the 6ft manufacturing engineer had a BMI, used to calculate
a healthy weight, of 45.5 and was severely obese.
While many people gained weight during lockdown, Adam took up running and joined WW,
formerly known as Weight Watchers, and the fat melted off, as he lost six stone in the first
five months and hit his lowest weight of 13st 7lbs at the end of February.
His wife, stay at home mum Nicola, 34, was stunned by her husband's new hunky figure. But
his transformation did put a strain on their marriage at first as she struggled with the
attention he got from strangers.
Now the couple are back at their best, with Nicola also losing 12lbs and going from a size 16
to a size 12 after they traded film nights on the sofa scoffing takeaways to working out
together.
She said: "I love him for who he is rather than what he looks like. Even though he looks damn
good now, I've fancied him whatever size he was.
"But when his health began to become a problem, I wanted him to lose weight so he could
still be there for me and the kids.
"Now we're stronger than we've ever been as a couple."
Adam has always struggled with his weight, being one of the largest kids in secondary school
by the time he left and hitting 20st at the age of 18.
Nicola - who was in his year group and shared mutual friends with him - was stunned when
she bumped into him again nine years after they left school on a night out in Long Eaton in
2012.
For having taken up boxing at 20, Adam had swapped some of the fat for muscle and

SCHICKSALE - Familienglück in Gefahr: Vater konnte wegen starkem Übergewicht seine Kinder nicht mehr zu Bett bringen
Adam and Nicola on their wedding day (PA REAL LIFE/Collect) *** Man who was so fat he could not put his children to bed
loses 10 STONE in a year to become a better dad
By James Butler, PA Real Life
A man who was so fat he did not have the energy to put his children to bed has lost 10
STONE in a year - saying it has 'made him a better dad'.
At his biggest in February 11 last year, Adam Newman, 34, from Long Eaton, Derbyshire,
weighed almost 24st - meaning the 6ft manufacturing engineer had a BMI, used to calculate
a healthy weight, of 45.5 and was severely obese.
While many people gained weight during lockdown, Adam took up running and joined WW,
formerly known as Weight Watchers, and the fat melted off, as he lost six stone in the first
five months and hit his lowest weight of 13st 7lbs at the end of February.
His wife, stay at home mum Nicola, 34, was stunned by her husband's new hunky figure. But
his transformation did put a strain on their marriage at first as she struggled with the
attention he got from strangers.
Now the couple are back at their best, with Nicola also losing 12lbs and going from a size 16
to a size 12 after they traded film nights on the sofa scoffing takeaways to working out
together.

Spartan Pudge as a child (PA REAL LIFE/collect) *** Graduate who deliberately gained 12 stone by gorging on 5,000 calories a day
reveals he will not stop until he weighs a quarter of a ton
By James Butler, PA Real Life

A data analyst who has deliberately gained 12 stone in fat by eating 5,000 calories a day says
he will not stop until he weighs a quarter of a US ton - the same as a giant grizzly bear.
Far from being alone in his pursuit of morbid obesity, Spartan Pudge, 28, aka Sebastian, has
13,000 Instagram followers and is part of the increasingly popular gainer community - a subsection of gay culture which idolises larger men and promotes body positivity.
Spartan, of New York, USA, who has grown from 15st 10lb, aged 18, to 27st 12lb today increasing his shirt size from a L to a XXXXL and with a belly measurement of 63in and thighs
each measuring 36in - said: "I love my body.
"Hitting 300lbs - or 21st 6lb - in my first semester at university made me feel amazing, and
most importantly it felt right.
"The majority of the drive behind it was sexual at first, but as time has gone on it has
become much more of a lifestyle choice."
At six feet tall, Spartan's body mass index (BMI) - used to gauge a healthy weight - is 52.8,
compared to the NHS healthy range of 18.5 to 24.9, meaning he is classed as morbidly obese.
But his fantasy is to gain a further 8st, 8lbs to become 35st 10lbs, or a quarter of a US ton.
He said: "I'm still more flexible than most people who are a normal size - I can put my foot
behind my head and my blood pressure and blood sugar is fine.
"I should go to the doctors to get checked more regularly, but it isn't the weight you are, it's
how you got there.
"Did you get to 400lb by eating doughnuts, or, like me, by eating home -cooked meals?

I'm not and I love my body."

Spartan Pudge in the same shirt before and after his weight gain (PA REAL LIFE/collect) *** Graduate who deliberately gained 12 stone by gorging on 5,000 calories a day
reveals he will not stop until he weighs a quarter of a ton

A data analyst who has deliberately gained 12 stone in fat by eating 5,000 calories a day says
he will not stop until he weighs a quarter of a US ton - the same as a giant grizzly bear.
Far from being alone in his pursuit of morbid obesity, Spartan Pudge, 28, aka Sebastian, has
13,000 Instagram followers and is part of the increasingly popular gainer community - a subsection of gay culture which idolises larger men and promotes body positivity.
Spartan, of New York, USA, who has grown from 15st 10lb, aged 18, to 27st 12lb today increasing his shirt size from a L to a XXXXL and with a belly measurement of 63in and thighs
each measuring 36in - said: "I love my body.
"Hitting 300lbs - or 21st 6lb - in my first semester at university made me feel amazing, and
most importantly it felt right.

SCHICKSALE - Familienglück in Gefahr: Vater konnte wegen starkem Übergewicht seine Kinder nicht mehr zu Bett bringen
Adam before his weight loss with his son (PA REAL LIFE/Collect) *** Man who was so fat he could not put his children to bed
loses 10 STONE in a year to become a better dad
By James Butler, PA Real Life
A man who was so fat he did not have the energy to put his children to bed has lost 10
STONE in a year - saying it has 'made him a better dad'.
At his biggest in February 11 last year, Adam Newman, 34, from Long Eaton, Derbyshire,
weighed almost 24st - meaning the 6ft manufacturing engineer had a BMI, used to calculate
a healthy weight, of 45.5 and was severely obese.
While many people gained weight during lockdown, Adam took up running and joined WW,
formerly known as Weight Watchers, and the fat melted off, as he lost six stone in the first
five months and hit his lowest weight of 13st 7lbs at the end of February.
His wife, stay at home mum Nicola, 34, was stunned by her husband's new hunky figure. But
his transformation did put a strain on their marriage at first as she struggled with the
attention he got from strangers.
Now the couple are back at their best, with Nicola also losing 12lbs and going from a size 16
to a size 12 after they traded film nights on the sofa scoffing takeaways to working out
together.
She said: "I love him for who he is rather than what he looks like. Even though he looks damn
good now, I've fancied him whatever size he was.
"But when his health began to become a problem, I wanted him to lose weight so he could
still be there for me and the kids.
"Now we're stronger than we've ever been as a couple."
Adam has always struggled with his weight, being one of the largest kids in secondary school
by the time he left and hitting 20st at the age of 18.
Nicola - who was in his year group and shared mutual friends with him - was stunned when
she bumped into him again nine years after they left school on a night out in Long Eaton in
2012.
For having taken up boxing at 20, Adam had swapped some of the fat for muscle and
