When Jessica Leonard was born, she was a perfectly healthy baby, just like any other child. No one could have predicted that in the years to come she would become the heaviest seven-year-old girl.
Weighing in at 200 kilograms, Jessica became something of a celebrity and her name was all over the media, but, unfortunately, for reasons that would make her early years hell. Although her parents don’t remember when the situation got out of control, they do recall that it struck them that their daughter was in dire straits when the scales showed she weighed 220 kilos at just 7 years old and was experiencing trouble breathing.
In an effort to maintain the progress their daughter would hopefully make at the clinic, Carolyn was also asked to attend parenting classes so she could help her daughter stay on track once she was well enough to return home. Jessica was sent to a clinic where she began a battle over every calorie she ate. 
Doctors realized that her problem with food was that she became psychologically dependent on it. Today, Jessica looks like a completely different person. She is very active, looks slim and practices gymnastics and basketball. She eats healthy and leads a healthy lifestyle.
