Woman With The Largest Hips In The World
Early life, marriage and pregnancy
Mikel was a normal-sized young woman and in her early 20s weighed an above average 13 stone (180 lb). But at 22, she put on 4 stone (56 lb) after having first child Andrew. After daughters Destynee, Autumn, and Justyce, followed, her weight and hips ballooned further.
She eats an average 5,000 calories a day.
Possibly this extraordinary fat tissue accumulation turns out to be an advanced stage of a medical condition called Lipedema.
