Meet Michele Berlin Kobke, the 16' Waist Woman from Germany

She was formerly a 25' waited woman, but has now become an incredible size 16' by wearing "Corsets" for 3 years. Her goal is to end up a size 15'.

For most of us, a slender waist is the product of a careful diet and plenty of exercise. But not for Michele Kobke, 24. The Berliner has shrunk her waist from 64cm (25 inches) to just 40cm (16 inches) by wearing a corset every day for three years – even while sleeping.
And despite now having a waist smaller than most catwalk model’s, the German slimmer says she hopes to whittle her waist down to a shocking 38cm or 14 inches wide.

However, doctors say that a waist bigger than 80cm (31.49in) could lead to serious problems, including heart disease.

 Recent figures show that nearly 57 per cent of British women have waists bigger than the healthy limit set by experts. Although Kobke’s tiny waist is guaranteed to raise a few eyebrows, the German believes she has the perfect feminine figure.

 "Perfect figure?" don't really know about that, but I'm very certain she must've gone through a lot to arrive here...what a world we leave in. Anyone looking to end up with such waist size could see me (*winks*), so I'll arrange a meeting between you and Kobke...though I prefer her "before" very much than what she looks like now. Personal opinion though.

No gimmick!!!
