Many of us have to deal with health problems and at times, those issues may be associated with the choices we make. One person who understands this is Nikki Weber.
Nikki Weber is a 34-year-old woman from America who has struggled with her weight since she was young. In her younger years, she would eat anything she wanted without thinking about the consequences of doing so.
After growing up, she knew that losing weight was something she needed to do so she gave some strict diets a try. When she would break down and go off of the diet, she would go straight for the fatty and sweet foods.
Before long, she was weighing in at 650 pounds and she knew that a big change was necessary. At this point, Nikki needed help just to get out of bed and she could not walk on her own. She moved in with her parents.
When her parents recognized that their daughter had a problem, they didn’t think that it was something that needed a lot of help. They didn’t try to get her to live a healthy lifestyle but rather, they built a mechanism that lifted food up to the second floor where she could eat it.
That is where a program called ‘My Whole 661 lbs’ came in. The program is open for those who are invited, and Nikki received an invitation. It is a program designed to help individuals who are morbidly obese lose weight.
At first, Nikki underwent one of the stomach procedures to make her stomach smaller. She was then helped with a personalized diet that came from a nutritionist.
She wasn’t sure if she could restrain herself and she worried that she would be unsuccessful, but it seemed as if she was on the right path. She overcame her fears and then quickly lost 198 pounds.
Eventually, Nikki was able to drop 352 pounds and then she went through an operation to remove excess skin, which took another 55 pounds off of her body.
She now weighs 198 pounds and is still working on her health. She walks a lot every day and takes part in other physical activities to manage her health and to lose additional weight.
Nikki even goes to the gym, which was where she met Marcus, her husband-to-be. It was love at first sight, and they make a beautiful couple.
