According to the daily mail on November 29, the fattest man in the world in 2017 lost 728 pounds (about 330 kg) in three years because he was afraid that his parents' pension could not support him. Today, his weight is 574 pounds. After losing weight, he not only got rid of the danger of diabetes and hypertension, but also walked with crutches.
Juan, a 35 year old Mexican, was named the world's fattest man by the Guinness World Records in 2017. His heaviest weight reached 1302 pounds (about 590 kg). Because he was too fat, he couldn't live a normal life like ordinary people. He even had to lie in bed and couldn't leave the room for half a step.
Juan said that when he was six years old, he weighed nearly 140 pounds (about 64 kilograms), and when he was 17 years old, he weighed more than 504 pounds (about 229 kilograms). At that time, he had an accident. Due to his serious injury, he lay in bed for a full year and a half, which made his already obese body heavier.
In November 2016, Juan was transferred from his home to a clinic in Guadalajara 100 miles away. Four months before he was sent to the clinic, he asked for help from a doctor because he weighed more than 840 pounds (381 kilograms) and said he had not left the room for six years. He was also worried that he would die because he had to give up special food, which his parents' pension could not afford.
That is, since then, Juan began to lose weight. Through a combination of surgery, special therapy and diet, he reduced his initial 590 kg to 260 kg. Three abdominal operations have greatly changed his life, and now he is waiting for a new operation to remove the loose skin. Juan was very happy after losing weight. He said: 'as long as you can lift your arms, get up, drink water or go to the bathroom every day, you will feel good. It feels great to be able to move more and take care of yourself. "
