Woman Weighing Over 600lb Lost Half Her Body Weight Because She Felt Like A ‘Nasty Monster’

A 24-year-old woman who weighs 644lb has vowed to make changes to her eating habits after doctors told her she would be dead at the age of 30.

Amber Rachdi, from Troutdale in Oregan, revealed that she weighed 154lb by the time she was five and has piled on the pounds ever since.

Amber admits that her obesity made her feel like she was dying.

But despite her weight, Amber says she has always eaten a healthy diet – but just ate more of the healthy food than she should have.

In autumn last year, Amber underwent life-saving gastric surgery and has managed to shed a massive 280lb.

She has now learned to drive and can go shopping by herself.

But Amber still intends to shed another 9 stone and admits she has a long way to go.

She said: “I have hope. Now the world is open to me. I’m no longer Amber of one room, one house.”
