Mum Carolyn, from Knoxville, Tennessee, stocked piled the food for her daughter who wanted to eat every two hours and would throw a tantrum if she didn’t get the food she wanted.
Jessica would consume around 10,000 calories a day, often eating 15 hamburgers a day, along with chips, white bread and lots of chocolate.
Jessica’s excessive eating was putting her life in danger and when she developed trouble breathing she was rushed to the East Tennessee Children’s Hospital in a critical condition.
“All parents make mistakes, there’s no perfect parents,” Carolyn said. “But I made mistakes that could have cost my child’s life – and I have major guilt.”
Child Protective Services eventually got involved and Jessica was transferred to an obesity clinic in Virginia where she was put on a strict diet and exercise programme.
Thanks to the help she lost an impressive 320lbs without surgery.
“I’m very proud of her,” Carolyn said.
However, Jessica will have to go under the knife to remove 20lbs of loose skin and she still has to fight the urge to indulge in snacks.
Jessica admitted to being “addicted to food” although Carolyn has now banned her from eating between meals and she’s not allowed to have snacks without permission.
To help with Jessica’s weight loss, Carolyn was ordered to attend parenting classes and now she monitors her daughter’s diet carefully.
Trips to the local supermarket involve buying low-calorie foods and Jessica goes to physical therapy sessions five times a week.
Despite the weight loss she still has difficulty walking because her excessive weight bowed her legs.
