At 10 years old, he was given the title "world's fattest child" by the Indonesian World Records Museum, making him somewhat of a local celebrity in his home country. After his fame, he decided to lose weight.
Arya Permana is left with saggy and loose skin all over his body after the Indonesian teenager lost nearly half of his body weight.
