After reading about the incredible transformation of a woman suffering from severe obesity, who weighed over 1,000+ pounds, you’ll come to realize that impossible is nothing! She was hopeless and near death. High profile doctors told her that she probably wouldn’t survive her “disease.” She took those words as motivation to make a change and these were the results:
Meet Mayra Rosales, a woman who was once morbidly obese. At one point, her weight problem was so severe she couldn’t even walk or do other everyday things. At her heaviest she weighed 1028 pounds.
Mayra’s obesity left her unable to take care of herself so she relied on her family and doctors to help her with everyday tasks. Every medical opinion on Mayra’s health and life expectancy was not favorable, so she decided to take things into her own hands.
Simple tasks you and I take for granted like bathing or changing clothes become a huge struggle for Mayra. Because she was confined to her bed, she was left with horrible bed sores.
Then, one day Mayra decided to make a big change. She would have life-changing surgery that would help her to reduce her weight. It took a group of over 13 people to get her from her home to the hospital.
The surgery was extensive and painful, but she went through it knowing that she may be able to live her life again!
This is Mayra after the surgery. Doctors were amazed by her recovery!
As soon as she left the hospital, Mayra was determined to shed the weight that she still had.
Following a healthy diet and workout regiment, the pounds started to fall off.
A year later, Mayra was almost unrecognizable from her former self…
She continued to work hard, to make changes to her body.
Until she look like this! Can you believe it’s even the same person?
In total, Mayra lost over 850 pounds! What an incredible transformation.
