I weighed 57 STONE and couldn’t even fit in a car, but now I’m unrecognizable
A size 8XL woman who barely fit in a car lost 60 pounds after doctors admitted removing a tumor was impossible because of her size.
When Amanda Register was diagnosed with uterine cancer, she began a five-year weight loss journey, dropping from 75 pounds to just 210 pounds.

The 42-year-old woman said doctors explained to her that her excess body fat would crush her organs as she turned on the operating table.
She said during her appearance on Family by the Ton, “My whole weight would crush my organs and I would stop breathing until I died.”
Amanda says she has been struggling with morbid obesity since she was three years old.
She had gastric bypass surgery to shed some pounds and worked tirelessly in the gym and on her diet.
Amanda said: “In 2018 I made a big decision to change my life.
“I started my journey in 2018 weighing over 800 pounds. Today I weigh 200 pounds.
“I had to completely change my life and my relationship with food and work hard in the gym. But I did it!
“I want other people to know that it’s never too late to get your life back.”
After she successfully lost weight, doctors were able to remove the cancerous tumor.
They also removed the excess skin left over from her massive body transformation.
Amanda regularly posts inspiring messages for her thousands of followers on social media.
She wrote on X: “I’m starting to raise awareness about the fight against obesity.
“I also hope to help obese youth by offering weekly healthy snack boxes that parents can pick up for free. I also want to organize walks, community activities and healthy cooking classes.
“I also hope to help youth suffering from obesity by eventually offering weekly healthy snack boxes that parents can pick up for free, organizing community activities and taking healthy cooking classes.”
She recently completed her first 5K run and trains regularly at the gym.
The American now works part-time in a doctor’s office in Georgia.
