Emma Holmes could be the next Incredible Shrinking Woman. For she’s not only lost 15-and -a-half-stone (217 pounds) in weight in less than 18 months, but she’s lost three inches in height too.
No wonder the 41-year-old shop assistant from Wimborne St Giles is almost unrecognisable.
“Even people who have known me for years don’t realise it’s me at first,” she laughs.
“I used to be nearly 5ft 9ins and now I’m just 5ft 6ins because I’ve also lost the fat between my vertebrae!” At her heaviest, the mother of three weighed 27st.

This doesn't make sense. I would think that the extra weight would have compressed her vertebrae (or the discs, anyway), and that when she lost weight she might have gained height.
People also shrink with age. But she doesn't look too old...
She's only 41. Unless she has horrendous osteoporosis or something, she shouldn't be shrinking that much.
