Pics: Check out this woman's unconventional method of weightloss

At 25, she is a plus-size and has taken to pole dancing in order to lose weight, after struggling to lose weight at the gym. It appears to be effective because aside from shedding six stone in two years, she has stunned her friends and family with her flexibility and now hopes to enter competitions to showcase her skills.

Eda Marbury who works as an accountant coordinator, says she battled with an eating disorder for eight years as a teenager and young adult. At first she was reluctant to go through with it but the encouragement of husband Terrik who has always been a support helped her, she became hooked on the routine after her third lesson.

But one of Eda's biggest accomplishments was performing her routines at a showcase in front of 45 people, including her husband and parents-in-law. Eda's greatest supporter has been Terrik, who has known Eda for seven years. He said: 'Her pole dancing is sexy to me. I know a lot of people don't like it and a lot of people talk bad about it and frankly I don't care. 'It makes her feel sexy, it makes her feel happy and that's what I like about it'.

In August, a three minute video she posted on Facebook titled Eda's Climb To The Top' quickly went viral amassing eight million views.

I think it's amazing what she has created for herself. lovely!
