From Isaac Martinez childhood

From birth, Isaac was hypoallergenic, which led to him being underweight. When he was finally allowed to eat what he wanted, Isaac lost control and gained over 100 pounds at the young age of 6. Things didn’t get better, by 10 years old Issac’s mother’s health took a turn for the worse, when she suffered a debilitating stroke that left her unable to do simple tasks. Isaac had no choice but to jump in and help raise his siblings. He quickly had to take on the household chores of cleaning and cooking. His food dependency seemed to only get worse and he was over 300 pounds by the age of 14.

His weight continued to increase

As a young man, Isaac was diagnosed with cellulitis, which then led to him going into a coma, before suffering a cardiac arrest when he was only 22. Fearing he would die at a young age, Isaac knew he had to get his weight under control if he wanted to live. So he made the appointment and decided to travel to Houston to meet with Dr. Now.
