Kimberly Glover, 51, weighed 476lbs at her heaviest and couldn't even go to the shop to get her lunch - which she says left her feeling depressed. The high school teacher, who is religious, says at that point she asked God to put her "on a path to either wellness or an early grave".
Now, after turning her life around Kimberly, from Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, weighs a happy 188lbs. Recalling her darkest moment, the mum-of-four said: "One day at work I needed lunch, but I couldn't walk over the street to the cafe to get it.
"That was when I weighed my heaviest, around 476 pounds, and life felt like it wasn't worth living. But thankfully, in 2019, God gave me an opportunity through weight loss surgery, and I'm happy to say, I took it."
