08 Dec Woman Celebrates Incredible 300lbs Weight Loss With Racy Photo With Husband

Every December, people begin to think about the prospect of the New Year. They reflect on what they have and haven’t achieved over the past 12 months, and, more often than not, make resolutions about what they’d like to achieve in the near future.

For a lot of people, this involves losing weight. It’s such a common resolution that countless memes and GIFs circulate the internet in January, mocking resolution makers who spend the month glued to the treadmill but inevitably give up soon after.

But that wasn’t the case for a then 25-year-old Lexi Reed in January 2016 when she and her husband resolved to lose weight.

The obese couple from Terre Haute, Indiana, weighed a combined 765lbs. Lexi weighed in at a staggering 485lbs whilst her 27-year-old husband Danny weighed a smaller, but still concerning, 280lbs. Now, two years later, the couple have lost a combined 400lbs.

“Doing this as a couple has helped us in so many ways,” Lexi told ABC News. “On days when we were unmotivated, we pushed each other to go to the gym. We also started meal-prepping together, setting goals, and day by day or pound by pound we grew closer throughout our journey.”

The couple revealed that they were “fed up with the life [they] were living.”

When the Reeds began their weight loss journey, Lexi set up an Instagram account to document their progress, aptly dubbed “fatgirlfedup”. Now, the pair have amassed almost half a million followers, all of whom have been inspired by their unrecognizable transformation.

“I never expected to have such an impact,” Lexi said. “I just wanted to get healthy.”
