In a house in Michigan, USA
29-year-old Lacey wakes up from bed
For her
A brand new day just means more anxiety and fear
Because she is imprisoned in a 626-pound body
All the time She has to endure the pain
and the first few steps of getting out of bed are often the most painful
is equivalent to carrying four 150-pound adults on her body
Lacey's knees are under tremendous pressure
She is the only one The source of happiness is food
Waking up just to eat
Lacey has lived alone for 8 years
Although she keeps her house in order
It is still difficult to take care of herself
After a laborious bath
Lacey Started making breakfast for herself
First a whole bag of potatoes and a plate of grilled sausage
The first bite in her mouth made her feel alive
After eating the fried potatoes and grilled sausage
A large plate of sweets came
Lacey has a sweet tooth,Not enough to eat
but these are just part of breakfast
Lacey doesn't like to go out
because it takes all her strength just to walk to the car
but she has to go out to buy food
"Please give me a double cheese Burgers, plus fries, mozzarella sticks
And a big mugbanana smoothie”
She will drive to different fast food restaurants to buy
until she gets all the food she wants
High calorie The fast food relieved her anxiety
but soon she would fall into more anxiety
Frozen three feet is not a day's cold
Lacie was a little overweight since she was a child
Her mother was at the resort at the time Chef
Mother is not only passionate about food, but she often overeats
Lacie likes to eat with her mother
So she also develops unhealthy eating habits
htmlAt the age of 6, Lacey already weighs 108 pounds
Heavier than children of the same age by 3 Times
Every time she's with friends
She always looks huge
As she gets older
Parents get busier with work
Lacey wakes up in the morning and goes to bed at night by herself
I'm still a child Lacey
had to learn to take care of herself
at the same time she felt so lonely Stop me from doing this"
Lacey got fatter and fatter without parental control and company
Then dad lost his job,Just stay at home
Whenever Lacey started eating
Dad would accuse her
This made Lacey angry
Not only did she not stop, but she continued to eat as she wanted
When Lacey was 9 years old, Lacey's She weighs more than 182 pounds
Because of obesity, she is physically weak
She can hardly go out to play with her friends
In addition, family changes have also brought her a huge blow
Dad can't find a job after losing his job
Mom thinks it's all because he's too lazy
The louder they get, the louder they get
Food is Lacey's greatest comfort The birth weight reached 318 pounds
But that is the upper limit of the clinic scale
Since then,Lacey never weighed again
And her parents eventually divorced
Lacey started living with her mother
Continued to overeating and gaining weight
She weighed over 544 pounds at the age of 20
Because she was overweight and had limited mobility
She didn't even I was able to finish college
Even the house I bought was because I applied for the disability grant
"I have never worked to make money
I have never experienced the taste of fighting for life"
Not only Lacey
Lacey's friends are always worried I won't see her next time
Under the persuasion of a friend
Lacie decided to let her mother accompany her to Houston to seek help from an expert
Because her mother became fatter and fatter
So she had gastric bypass surgery
Although it seemed Still not back to normal
But still a little bit thinner
Lacey has never been on a plane or traveled far
The trip made her feel both terrified and excited
Just stuffing herself into the car is already a lot of effort
She still Need to buy several plane tickets for yourself
and make an appointment to prepare a wheelchair for the disabled
Although Lacey tried her best to arrange everything
But when she actually arrived at the airport
The staff told her that there was no wheelchair that could carry her weight
So Lacey decided to walk Checking in
is not only the body that has to suffer huge pain
the sight around her is tormenting her
however,When she saw the plane
she was so excited
it was the first time she saw an airplane
and her first brave step
"People take travelling and seeing this for granted
It's true Incredible"
After finally arriving in Houston
Lacey and her mother took the car to the hotel
Just as she got off the bus
Lacey fell accidentally
She felt a little bit of a meltdown
My mother tried to pick her up and called an ambulance
But Under the strong self-esteem and frustration,
Lacey did not want to accept help anyhow.
Later, her mother pushed a cart with a large piece of luggage
, and Lacey sat on it.
Lacey felt ashamed and refused to say anything.
There was only food. It can heal her wounded soul
So after entering the hotel room
she immediately started eating
The next morning, my mother accompanied Lacey to the hospital
The doctor pointed out that Lacey was 160
weight but weighed 626 pounds
This is very important for her Her body has caused a huge load
If she doesn't make changes
She is very likely to lose her precious life because of a small problem
The doctor also criticized Lacey's mother
She obviously had surgery
But her mother's weight is not Not having the desired effect
will undoubtedly negatively affect
Finally,The doctor made a high-protein, low-starch diet plan for Lacey
1200 calories a day
She is required to eat only three meals a day
Walk for at least 30 minutes in the morning and evening
She must lose at least 72 pounds in the next two months
Only in this way Only if you have a healthy body can bear the risk of stomach surgery
And after the operation, you must have the ability to lose weight continuously
Can you really return to normal body shape
This is also a test for Lacey
As soon as she returns to her residence
Lacie will strictly enforce it Starting from the plan the doctor made for her
Learn the combination of meat and vegetables in the diet, control calories
and maintain activity
After 2 months of persistence
Lacie successfully lost 96 pounds
It was 24 pounds more than the 72 pounds required by the doctor
"You did a great job Lacey I am proud of you
So I will approve your surgery today"
To ensure further weight loss after surgery
So Lacey had to move to Houston for a while
Have restructured the family Dad
also came to help her move in order to support her daughter
Lacey was very moved, because Dad still loves her
However,The parents who used to live together
got together and started arguing again
It took 4 days to drive to the new house in Houston
Lacie was exhausted
But in the end,the parents quarreled over a trivial matter
Lacie felt like she went back to her childhood
Make her wonder again if surgery is the right choice
If she can't decompress with food after surgery
How will she deal with her anxiety and fear
Lacie's hesitation makes mom angry
After a call with the doctor
The doctor decides Temporarily cancel the surgery for her
First perform psychotherapy
With the help of a psychiatrist
Lexi began to try to use other interests to regulate her emotions
For example painting
Immersed in art to make her inner peace
On this day, Lacey can finally have surgery
The divorced parents accompany her to the hospital
Stomach reduction surgery was very successful
But then she still needs to continue to lose weight after recuperation
At the same time, she also needs to continue psychotherapy
Dad decided to stay in Houston to accompany Lacey For a while
Lacey was lonely as a child because she lacked the company of her parents
Dad admits that he used to think Lacey's weight problem
He felt ashamed
So he didn't want to take her out even if he had time
"I've been dealing with it all my life All kinds of problems
that's the only problem I can't solve"
Dad apologizes to Lacey,And said that she will work hard to make up for
The father and daughter finally solved the knot
Lacey lost a total of 232 pounds in
in one year
She began to go to public places
to find some healthier hobbies
Now she has returned to her normal body shape
She will also update her life status on social platforms
She is confident and dazzling in the photo
As she wished, she has found her own life
Many times we all make mistakes Wrong
When you have to make a change,
finds it more difficult than the sky
But as long as you can take the first step
will find that it is not impossible
It is not terrible to go the wrong way
The terrible thing is to know that it is Wrong
but no courage to turn back
