Size 26 Woman Who Became Too Fat To Fit Into Her Santa Costume Sheds Nine Stone And Says This Christmas She'll Be A Slinky Elf

Size 26 Roisin Curran (left and centre left), 30, from County Down, Northern Ireland, who used to consumed 4,000 calories a day, struggled to find any festive outfits that would fit her size 26 frame for her work party. The retail worker, who opted for a portion-control diet combined with exercise, was forced to cut through the elastic of a Santa costume so that she could fit her 19st 7lb figure in. She's now lost an impressive nine stone leaving her fitting a size 10 and weighing 10st (right).
