Everyone wishes to have a fairytale love story but Lexi and Danny Reed are living it. For the couple, their love story and commitment to each other have seen them overcome epic challenges to become the iconic role models they are today.

Their story begins just after their wedding when Lexi decided to make some lifestyle changes. This decision was cemented after getting frustrated by some of the inconveniences she faced during her wedding planning. The best part about this story is the fact that Danny was as supportive as he could be and he stuck by Lexi’s side. It’s a story written in the stars and we can’t help but marvel at their journey.

Love At First Sight

Danny and Lexi crossed paths a few times before accepting their feelings for each other. To say the couple was a match made in heaven is an understatement. It was love at first sight for the lovebirds, and they accepted each other as they were.

When it came to physical appearance, both Danny and Lexi were a bit on the heavy side. Nevertheless, this didn’t bother either of them; in fact, it was one of the reasons they grew close so fast. As time went on, they realized their weight was going to be a problem in the future, so they set out to find a perfect solution.

New Rules

The reason for this couple’s weight troubles could be traced to their unhealthy eating habits. For instance, instead of preparing healthy meals, Danny and his lover preferred ordering takeout. On the other hand, their love for buffets was unparalleled as they’d spend hours trying to stuff themselves as much as possible.

This incredible love for food pushed the couple together, and it was one of the things that made them love each other even more. That being said, this mode of operation was a house of cards, and once Danny hit over 130 kg, the couple knew they were playing Russian roulette with their life expectancy.

Either Or

Danny and Lexi’s unhealthy habits didn’t stop at the dinner table. It also extended to their everyday lives, where the couple would spend hours in front of the TV after every meal. This situation didn’t come out of the blue; it all began when Lexi was a child.

As a child, Lexi’s family didn’t know that they should change their little girl’s unhealthy lifestyle. That’s how the young Lexi found herself on a constant fast-food diet instead of healthy home-cooked meals. Food was Lexi’s emotional cushion, and when Danny came along, the bad habit became even worse.

Two Peas In A Pod

Just like any other couple, Danny and Lexi’s habits quickly rubbed off on each other. Sadly, their habits were not cute and cuddly like the movies show. Instead, this couple had a laid-back lifestyle that involved eating and sitting around watching TV. Before long, both Danny and Lexi had hit over 150 kilos which was a cause for alarm.

It was then that Lexi knew she had to change her ways. The lady quickly confided in her boyfriend about how miserable she was feeling. Her lifestyle was far from what she had envisioned for herself. Sadly, the lady didn’t have enough motivation until something unexpected happened.

A Big Ask

After a healthy dating period, Danny finally popped the question, and Lexi was lost for words. The little girl in the big lady’s heart was screaming with glee because her dream of finding the perfect mate was about to come true. The best part of it all was Danny didn’t care about her weight.

Lexi didn’t waste any time before saying yes, and she was on the way to a jolly old wedding. Or so she thought. It turns out, being overweight has its limitations that Lexi wasn’t prepared for. The woman weighed 220 kilos, and getting a fitting dress for her size was next to impossible.
