Mayra Lisbeth Rosales, once known as one of the heaviest women in the world at 500 kilograms, spent years confined to her bed, fully dependent on her husband for everyday care.
While her weight didn’t initially cause serious health issues, it eventually made it impossible for her to carry out even the most basic daily tasks.
A turning point came following family circumstances that required her to take on greater responsibility. Motivated by a deep desire to support her loved ones, Mayra made the life-changing decision to pursue personal transformation.
With the help of a dedicated medical team, she embarked on a long and challenging weight-loss journey. Over time, she underwent several medical procedures and faced numerous physical obstacles, including weakened muscles and excess skin.
Through guided exercise programs and unwavering determination, she managed to lose over 400 kilograms—an astonishing 80% of her original body weight.
Today, Mayra weighs 91 kilograms and lives a fulfilled, active life. Her story continues to inspire thousands of people around the world, proving that lasting change begins with a decision—and that every step forward is worth the effort.
