Obese man loses 222lbs after 60-inch waist made him too wide for sex

  • 6 years ago
A man from Tennessee whose waist was just seven inches less than his height has lost an incredible 16 stone after his marriage collapsed because he was too big for sex.

Stephen Ringo, 38, blames his struggle with obesity for ruining his relationship after his waist expanded to 60 inches when he was just 67 inches (5ft 7ins) tall.

The software engineer was once a super-fit powerlifter in high school and college ,but his weight ballooned thanks to his love of lunchtime Big Macs and pizza dinners.

Reportedly Ringo, of Johnson City, was so large he struggled to put on his socks, and the extra pounds drove his sex drive “into the ground”, prompting the change.
