It was easy to see why this person continually gained weight. I have only observed, up close, the feeding habits of one morbidly obese person. I was unable to find any information as to what it is that Khalid bin Mohsen Shaari consumed that caused him to put on so much weight at such a young age. Saudi Arabia is slightly less obese with 35.2% its people being obese. Kuwait, at 42.8%, has the largest number of obese citizens.
Khalid's treatment will be a series of exercise and nutritional programs designed to help him shrink.Īpparently many nations in the Middle East have developed an obesity problem. It took a forklift to get Khalid bin Mohsen Shaari, strapped to his bed, to a truck to take him to a plane to fly him to Riyadh where the Fahd Medical City has built special beds and trolleys to facilitate moving Khalid.
Saudi King Abdullah learned of his morbidly obese subject and ordered that he be transferred from his residence in the South Saudi province of Jazan to the capital of Saudi Arabia, Riyadh, to undergo treatment at the King Fahd Medical City. At 1,345 pounds he is believed to be one of the heaviest, most obese, people in the world. Khalid bin Mohsen Shaari is in his late teens. In November 2017, Al Arabiya reported that he had lost 542 kg (1,195 lb 85 st 5 lb) and now weighed 68 kg (150 lb 10.7 st). In the picture you are looking at a Saudi Arabian named Khalid bin Mohsen Shaari. Heaviest people ever recorded Largest ever documented weight loss, of 419 kg (924 lb 66 st), until Khalid bin Mohsen Shaari surpassed the record in 2017.
