Obese Woman Tattoos Weight Goal on Stomach
"Extreme Weight Loss" host Chris Powell discusses helping Meredith lose half her body weight.
Get ready to be inspired, last night on Extreme Weight Loss we met Meredith P, 25 years old, a teacher who wanted to lose more than half of her body weight, take a look at her incredible journey.
For most of her life, 24 year old Meredith had struggled with her weight and her identity.
I always knew i was adopted, there are small, i am not at all, i just i never felt like i fit into my own family.
Years of yoyo dieting had brought her to 314 pounds, so this kindergarten teacher from R New York reaches out to Chris Paul who wastes no time getting Meredith into boot camp.
Finish this, finish where we start.
She wants to weigh 155 pounds a goal she's tattooed on her stomach.
When i come to see you in 90 days, you need to lose 80 pounds.
And well it isn't easy.
We are going to run from this life guard station down to that life guard station.
Meredith meets the challange head on.
Oh my god Meredith, you just dropped 84 pounds...
And over the next year. You lost 32 pounds, you're down another 22.
So does Meredith make it down to 155?
Ladies and gentlemen, put your hands together for the all new Meredith.
Oh here it is. The moment we have been waiting for, there she was and here she is now. Meredith, thanks. Chris Paul, Congratulations. Thank you.
Hi Chris, you have done it again, congratulations, i want to give you this, i know you want to show us. I do. Will you share with us how far have you come?
So at the heaviest i was over 400 pounds at one point, and here we are today at 155 pounds, it's amazing, it's such a journey. Congratulations. Thank you. Chris, host of Extreme Weight Loss and choose more lose more, you've seen it before, but you said Meredith's journey was especially inspiring.
It was and so mush so that she'd tattooed her goal on her body, i mean that shows dedication, but it's also one of the most important things we can all do is we need to know where we are going, we need to have that purpose that is exactly what she did, and she got there.
