Eman Ahmed Abdulati in her 1,000 sqft modified room

Eman Ahmed’s biggest challenge begins today. The 37-year-old Egyptian national, touted as the world’s heaviest woman at 500 kg, who arrived in the city on Saturday for weight reduction surgery, will be served only liquid supplements, beginning today. This, in the hope that she drops 50 kg in 25 days, otherwise an impossible task. Simply put, she will have to lose 2 kg every day to even qualify for the life-saving bariatric surgery she desperately needs.
