'After her mum and the dog died it broke her heart and she had nothing to stay here for. She was born someplace in England and has a brother there so that's where she went.

'She moved about 6 months earlier, she's dealing with good friends. Wherever she is, she's out and about with her good friends, they take her places and she enjoys.

'Georgia's caring it, she's more active and she's not so lonely. She missed her mum but she's got company once again now.

Ms Hodges stated: 'Georgia tells me she has lots of business.

'She has a brand-new life so I'm truly happy for her. Georgia's a truly lovely person.

'We are still in touch on Facebook, she messages me most days to inquire about me and the kids.'

The now-32-year-old's problems began in her early childhood.

When her daughter would not take formula milk, Ms Davis's mother fed her condensed milk and later a weaned diet plan of little more than mashed tinned potatoes.

Then she began to utilize food as a source of comfort t the age of 5 when her daddy passed away.

'When he passed away, food ended up being a sort of comfort for me,' she confessed. 'When I was eating I felt less unhappy.'

Teased for being a 'fatty' at primary school, Ms Davis entered into a cycle of comfort eating and bullying. The more she consumed, the more she was mocked and the more separated she felt - so the more she consumed again.

By the age of 10, Ms Davis weighed 12st and alarm bells were ringing loud enough for her to be put on the 'at danger' register with social services.

Two years later, her mom suffered a heart attack. Georgia's stepfather Arthur was older and ill himself, so she became her mother's main carer.

The stress took an even more toll and by the time she started secondary school, the teenager was piling on a lot more weight.

'A lot of things capped then,' she said. 'I 'd never truly handled my daddy's death and I was also now caring for my mum and fretting about her health. I felt a substantial amount of pressure.'

Most nights, Ms Davis would consume a takeaway or more en route home from school - pizza or fish and chips being her favourites - before chewing her way through the contents of the kitchen area cupboards.

'It didn't matter what it was. Crisps. Chocolate. Entire loaves of bread. I consumed anything, actually,' she stated.

Doctors warned her - and Lesley - time and once again that there would be severe repercussions if she carried on eating.

But carry on she did, coming to a record-breaking 33st in the autumn of 2008, a few months short of her 16th birthday.

Lesely mentioned her 'regret' over her child's weight and stated she had actually made a figured out effort to change their diet plans - such as making her own chips rather of purchasing them from the takeaway.

'I want I might turn back the clock. But if you have actually never had food dependency, you can't comprehend. You attempt to combat it but it resembles a drug.'

Georgia informed reporters at the time: 'Some people choose heroin however I've selected food and it's eliminating me.'

She detailed her everyday diet plan, exposing she would consume 'a couple of loaves-worth of sandwiches filled with jam or cheese or meat' every day.

This remained in addition to 5 bags of cheese and onion crisps, two packages of chocolate bourbons, sponge cake, trifle chocolate cake, and four sausages with mashed potato and baked beans for supper, as well as carbonated drinks.

The nurse at her medical professional's surgical treatment attempted to help. She informed the family about a United States weight-loss camp and motivated her to request a scholarship.

Ms Davis was accepted, and in September 2008 travelled to the mountains of North Carolina with 60 other overweight teens, all required to abide by the camp's structured schedule of rigorous mealtimes and strenuous workout program.

The strategy was to go back to Wellsprings for a more three months to shed another 6st, but that never ever occurred and she soon fell back into her old routines.

She needed to wait eight hours as emergency employees knocked down walls so that she could be carried into an ambulance - costing ₤ 100,000.

Her household reported that Ms Davis was no longer able to stand and was suffering with sores and swelling in her feet.

At the time, neighbours stated they thought she weighed around 63st, but included that it was difficult to understand her true weight as it would require a professional scale to measure.

In April 2015, she needed to be saved from her home again, with 2 cranes, 7 police vehicles, two fire truck and 11 medics working to lift her from her home for a seven-hour operation after she got a severe infection.
