    It's a great story and everything, but she was limiting herself to 1200kcal per day and going to the gym every day. 1200kcal net is ok if you're eating more than that, but it's really hard to get the nutrients you need doing under that. Going to the gym every day hugely increases the risk of injury - you need the rest day in between to allow your body to recover.

    It is still a great story. And her boobs are awesome.

    For those of you interested, it's in the #DailyFail:

    I doubt she has much loose skin, the picture of her skin is sitting and hunched over. Even fitness competitors who have never been fat look like that when they're sitting or hunched over.
