Pauline Potter was named world’s heaviest woman: See her today

In 2012 when Pauline Potter claimed the world title for Guinness’ heaviest woman, she weighed as much as a fully grown female polar bear,

After she was named the “world’s fattest woman,” the 61-year-old star of TLC’s My 600-lb Life made a shocking transformation, leaving fans gobsmacked over her new appearance.

At the time, the title was one that she and her ex-husband Alex held in high regard.“Alex encouraged me to eat ­whatever I wanted. He would make huge meals of turkey and roast ­potatoes and pile it on my plate,” Potter said of the man she married on Valentine’s Day in 2003, less than one year after meeting him online. “Because he loved my size, ­I set a goal to reach [700 pounds], to make sure I was even ­bigger ­for him,

Speaking with the Mirror, Potter explains that Alex was fond of bigger women and enjoyed stuffing her: “He made spaghetti and French bread for me. He would bring ­home pudding and feed it to me. It was very intimate. It was a very loving thing.”
