[Fat doctor]. Craig Curtis
Description
Craig Curtis is super morbidly obese. He is forty stone and still gaining weight. In a bad day Craig can get through 25 packets of crisps and two loaves of bread. Craig, from Gravesend is married with three children under four years old. His wife has to everything for both Craig and the children. Craig feels he is incapable of being a good father or husband to his family; he hasn't left the house in over a year, he is unable to go to the toilet on his own and needs constant care. In the episode, we also revisit 23 year old Rachel Barrass who weighed in at 26 stone. Three months after her successful gastric bypass surgery, Rachel fell pregnant. As a result of her surgery Rachel has actually lost weight during her pregnancy rather than gaining it - she has lost 10 stone!
