Sylvia Hailwood

AGE: 28
LIVES: Western Australia
STATUS: Married
OCCUPATION: Mum and Wife
WEIGHT: 141.7 kgs

Moving from the country to the city as a teenager, Sylvia began dining on takeaway food with friends and quickly gained weight.

Now a mother of three, Sylvia is desperate to lose weight so she will not be an embarrassment to her children. She is also worried about her two younger sisters following in her footsteps and living the same life as her a few years down the track.

Having been warned by doctors that her life may be cut short due to her size, the situation is now grave. It is do or die for this mum of three.
