Khalid bin Mohsen Shaari

Khalid bin Mohsen Shaari (خالد بن محسن الشاعري; born 28 February 1991) is a Saudi Arabian man, who in August 2013 was found to be the heaviest living person, and the second-heaviest person in recorded history at 610 kg, behind Jon Brower Minnoch.

As a result of medical treatment, he lost a total of 320 kg—more than half his body weight—in six months.

Khalid bin Mohsen Shaari was born in Saudi Arabia on 28 February 1991.

He was 22 when he was declared the "fattest man alive", with a BMI of 204.

In 2013, Saudi King Abdullah ordered him to come from his home in Jizan to King Fahd Medical City in the country's capital, Riyadh, to undergo a series of dietary and physical programs to help him lose weight.

During the weight loss, he was able to walk for the first time in five years, in February 2016, with a walker.

By November 2017, he had lost 542 kg and now weighs 68 kg. In January 2018, he had his last surgeries to remove excess skin.
