Britain's former fattest man has lost 304kg and has found love via Facebook.

Paul Mason, who previously weighed 440kg by eating 20,000 calories a day, revealed that he got a Facebook message from Rebecca Mountain, who later became his girlfriend, after she saw a TV documentary about him and wanted to help him find someone who would operate on him, the Metro reported.

The 52-year old resident of Ipswich from Orange, Massachusetts confessed that his 40-year old girlfriend had brought up the idea of dating after they became close by repeatedly chatting over Skype.
