Eman, 37, weighing nearly 500 kgs and billed as the heaviest woman in the world, was brought from Alexandria on February 11 for a weight-loss programme which includes surgery. "The medical team of Saifee Hospital successfully performed a Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy surgery on Eman on March 7. She had an uneventful surgery and anaesthesia course," a hospital medical bulletin said on Thursday. Earlier, Lakdawala had said that they planned to reduce another around 150-200 kgs and bring her around to 100 kgs or less. Eman's condition will now be monitored before the next surgery is fixed to bring her down to a lean and trim 100 kgs or so.
