Jessica Leonard from Chicago holds the weight record.
At the age of 7 her weight reached 222 kg.
She could not move on her own and needed the help of her mother, who brought her daughter to such a state.
The classic American version, when an overly loving mother cannot fight the whims and indulges any desire of her daughter.
As a result, the woman simply fed the child unhealthy food.
During the day, Jessica ate foods with a value of 10 thousand calories instead of 1800 (the norm for children of her age).
Moreover, the main diet consisted of fast food: pizza, hamburgers, soda, French fries and other high-calorie food.
The mother of the record-holder in weight also suffered from obesity, though not on such a scale.
The baby overcame the 100-kilogram at the age of 4.
Then the parents began to notice the first health problems of their daughter.
But even this condition of the daughter did not force the mother to become stricter in terms of nutrition.
Thanks to the help of ordinary Americans and doctors, the girl got rid of 140 kilograms.
It took her a year and a half of hard work, diets and ivs.
Now the baby who had the status of the fattest child in the world weighs 80 kg.
Of course, this is above the norm, but still the threat to the child’s life has already passed.
This is not the end of Jessica’s struggle.
She still has to go on diets, exercise.
Also, the girl will have to undergo several operations that will help restore the motor ability of the joints of the legs and get rid of excess skin.
McDonald’s Introduces $5 Meal Deal Hoping to Regain Customers
McDonald’s was criticized earlier this year for its high prices when a receipt from a Connecticut restaurant went viral. Worse, a $18 Big Mac combo made things even worse.
This started a discussion on how much a fast food meal should reasonably cost.
According to reports, the cost of fast food increased by around 28% between 2019 and 2023. Although there are a number of reasons for this rise, one thing is certain: customers are getting impatient.
During an earnings call, McDonald’s CEO Chris Kempczinski stated, “Eating at home has become more affordable.” “That low-income consumer is undoubtedly the front line of battle.”
A new $5 lunch offer is what McDonald’s wants to launch in an attempt to win back customers.
The Wall Street Journal reports that this $5 offer will come with fries, a choice drink, four pieces of chicken nuggets, and a McChicken or McDouble. Commencing on June 25th, the campaign is expected to run for around one month.
Even if the transaction hasn’t begun, some clients are still dubious.
“Meal for $5 for just a month? Thank you, but no! Do you intend to entice us in the hopes that we will stay and pay hefty fees? Not at all!
“McDonald’s $5 Meal Deal is the answer to inflation,” the company said.
The McChicken was once available for just $1 on the menu. The $1 menu ought to be reinstated.
In an April call, Kempczinski said, “Consumers continue to be more discerning with their spending as they face elevated prices in daily expenses, putting pressure on the industry.” It is imperative that we prioritize cost for our clientele.
