The world’s heaviest woman, who consumed a lot of milkshakes and weighed fifty stone, is no longer recognizable.

Pauline Potter: From World’s Heaviest Woman to Weight Loss Warrior

Pauline Potter once held the Guinness World Record as the world’s heaviest woman, weighing over 700 pounds.

At her heaviest, she followed an eye-popping diet that included six scrambled eggs, half a pound of bacon,

four hash browns, six slices of buttered bread, and an ice cream milkshake—for breakfast alone.

Her eating habits were extreme, and her size quickly spiraled out of control, placing her health and life at serious risk.

But despite the shocking diet and the title that brought her brief notoriety, Pauline’s story didn’t end there.

 

Determined to reclaim her life, she began an incredible weight loss journey. Through a mix of portion control, exercise, and, eventually,

weight loss surgery, Pauline shed over 500 pounds. Her transformation took years of dedication and came with both physical and emotional challenges.

Pauline’s story is more than just headlines or shock value—it’s a testament to resilience and the human spirit.

She not only survived the consequences of her past but chose to confront them head-on. Today, she serves as a reminder

that no matter how far gone things may seem, change is possible with courage, effort, and the will to fight for your health and future.
