Mihir was born in India in the fall of 2003. His birth weight was only 2,400 grams, and for the first year and a half he was no different than his peers.
In 2005, when Mihir was almost two years old, he discovered the world of comics. Not yet knowing how to read, the little boy spent hours staring at the bright pictures, watching with rapture the adventures of his favorite characters.
The boy’s parents were happy about their son’s attraction to books, even such. They did not even notice how, from sedentary lifestyle and constant snacking on chips while reading, Mihir’s weight by the age of 4 exceeded 60 pounds! By the age of six it became difficult for Mihir to move independently, so instead of going to school, he immediately switched to homeschooling.
Studying was boring for the boy, but still he diligently reread his textbooks several times while lying on the couch. And again he ate…, ate and, practically, did not move.In 2013, the weight of 10-year-old Mihir reached the record mark of 167 kilograms. Then his parents decided to show their son to the specialists, but they just couldn’t push him through the doorway.
At 14 the boy was weighing almost 240 kilograms and the local media started writing about him. Soon the whole world learned about the “weight record holder”, and at the end of 2017 there were doctors who were ready to help him.In order to carry out the necessary medical procedures, Mihir first needed to lose at least 30-40 pounds of excess weight.
Thanks to a special diet and a selected course of physical activity, Mihir lost weight to 197 kg already in 3 months.
On April 8, 2018, doctors at the Delhi Clinic reduced Mihir’s stomach, and in 4 days he was able to go home.
After returning home, a whole new life began for Mihir! He completely reconsidered his menu, eliminating almost all fried foods, started eating more fruits and vegetables and forgot about fast food forever.
The weight gradually began to decrease, and within a year he lost almost 40 kilos. Mihir was already able to walk, started walking more and doing physical exercises. Recently Mihir turned 18. Now the guy weighs about 124 kg. and leads a healthy lifestyle. He looks very alert and cheerful.
Thanks to his record weight, Mihir became famous, and he and his story were often written about him in newspapers and magazines around the world. And now that he has lost weight, interest in his persona has gradually faded.
