One of the 'world's fattest women' shed an incredible 500lbs after life-changing surgery

One of the 'world's fattest women' now looks unrecognisable after shedding 35 stone. Christina Phillips says walking to her room used leave her out of breath before she underwent life-changing surgery.

She was 22 when she had gastric bypass surgery after her weight ballooned to a staggering 50 stone. Christina first rose to notoriety when appearing on the TV series "My 600-lb Life" back in 2012.

At the time, she told producers: "I'm trapped inside this body that I don't want to be in." The morbidly obese woman was also physically trapped inside as due to her size she hadn't left her home in two years, reports the Mirror.
