Because he weighs nearly 500 pounds, he has two I haven’t bathed in years, and I can only sit in a fixed position or sit on the sofa or bed every day. Recently, the reporter met the 35-year-old Yangjiang guy Aaron at the First Affiliated Hospital of Jinan University and Guangzhou International Weight Loss and Diabetes Surgery Center.

Only in the past 3 years after the outbreak of the new crown pneumonia, Aaron has gained at least 70 to 80 kilograms, and now weighs nearly 500 kilograms. After a doctor’s examination, Aaron’s heart failure index reached the highest level. Professor Wang Cunchuan, vice president of the First Affiliated Hospital of Jinan University and head of the Weight Loss Center, introduced that Aaron is a super obese body with serious heart damage and a high risk of thrombosis. , High blood sugar, severe lumbar disc herniation, edema of both lower extremities and the whole body, sleeping basically by mouth breathing, severe snoring, apnea or even sudden death may occur at any time.

35 years old, so young, how did he gain weight to 500 pounds step by step?

The reporter learned that Aaron has a family genetic obesity gene, and her sister was nearly 200 pounds at her fattest. During his tenure as a security guard, due to the night shift, his daily work and rest were disordered, and black and white were reversed. Later, because of obesity and gout, Aaron quit his job and stayed at home. His work and rest habits have not changed. He sleeps from 12:00 to 20:00 every day, wakes up and starts lying down to play games, watch anime, watch variety shows, etc. Go to bed at 12 o’clock the next day. After the weight rose to 300 pounds, Aaron became more and more reluctant to go out and walk. The only way to lose weight was to take a walk after meals.

In terms of diet, he likes all fried foods. He often buys fried chicken, soft drinks, and high-calorie snacks. He can eat three or four pounds of pasta in one meal. When obesity affected his life and even made him feel inconvenient to move, he once thought about losing weight, but every time he didn’t put it into action, he always looked forward to “start to lose weight tomorrow”.

I didn’t think about it, this weight will only increase and not decrease.
