Mortified Jade Torry shed seven stone after first getting stuck on a water slide and then being measured to see if she would fit on a rollercoaster while on holiday in America.
The 22-year-old was left in tears when staff at Disney World in Florida pulled her out of a queue thinking she was too fat to go on the ride.
The mum-of-one, who used to eat three dinners every evening is now barely recognisable having dropped from 16 stone and a size 20, down to just 9 stone.

In France it is 12%.
Totally changed his face.
Go to Opryland.
I go there every couple of years just to feel like I am on the low end of the scale.
You only weigh 100lbs?
“...her husband was complaining about how much time she there and he liked her “better” at her old weight..”
The husband must have been an insecure fatso who was complaining when the wife was trying to get in shape (for health and appearance). So, instead of joining her, he was complaining and probably depressed the whole time. Based on that info, I don’t blame her at all.
I have a hard time believing this, unless it was a little kids' ride or something. She's not *that* fat compared to the average person at Disney.
Must be tough on the employees at Disney. At times they have to do this for the patron’s own safety. But it’s a sensitive matter and I’m sure they don’t like to do it.
Women and men need to pump a lot of iron and make sure they are getting at least 1gram of protein per lb of lean body weight every day or they are burning off as much muscle as fat...they turn into "skinny fat".
1-1.5 lbs per week fat loss should be the max and NO starvation diets.
7 stone = 98 pounds
Doh! Opryland was demolished 15 years ago. Not familiar with southern folk much, huh?
Go to Opryland.

Heh. I live in “Fat” Antonio. The best Mexican Food in the Country is here.
And I’m 6 feet and 190 lbs. I feel pretty good about myself.
“If you can lose 200 pounds, youre fat.”
???????!!!!!!!!!, If I lost 200 pounds I’d be gone.
“Go to Opryland. I go there every couple of years just to feel like I am on the low end of the scale.”
Opryland has been gone for about 15 years now. It’s a huge mall now.
Not so true in the young and she IS 21.
It must be emotionally damaging for someone to come from the land of skinny super models of freakishly high intelligence to the land of dumb fat bodies and get stuck on the slide / sarc
I just wanted to show off, after I did the math ;-).
