New Delhi: The world's heaviest woman Eman Ahmed has managed to garner worldwide support after losing considerable amount of weight after the weight reduction surgery.
She has started to smile again and is trying to make some moves while looking positively towards the journey ahead.
Having lost nearly 140 kilos after undergoing bariatric surgery in Mumbai's Saifee Hospital, Eman is on the way to a steady, though slow recovery.
Unfortunately, there are many obstacles in the way of Eman's weight loss goal. Ailments and conditions like diabetes, hypothyroidism, hypertension and severe lung disease have given way to a right-side heart failure, not to forget the multiple spells of epileptic fits she suffers every day.
An update posted by her doctors on an online portal said, “We are happy to inform you that her post-op recovery is going fairly well.”
Currently down to 358 kilos, “She lost 120kg in less than a month, but that was mainly the fluids,” said Dr Muffazal Lakdawala, who heads the retinue of doctors working to 'Save Eman', the Times of India (TOI) reported.
“The initial weight loss allowed us to operate safely and successfully. The battle is won, but the war is yet to be won. There is a long way to go before we can say Eman Ahmed is finally out of the woods,” said Dr Lakdawala.
