“My body just started changing,” the Staten Island, New York, native told TODAY as part of a three-day series, "Medical Mysteries," looking at people who have recovered from rare diseases.
It was especially puzzling because Trotman had never had weight issues before.
In school, Trotman was never a skinny kid, but he wasn’t overweight. He loved sports, playing both basketball and baseball.
So as he entered adulthood, he was active and in good shape. Then, three years ago, he suddenly began to gain weight.
“It was just specific places: My stomach, under my arms, my back of my neck, my face, the bottom of my back,” Trotman said. “My legs stayed the same for a long time.”
To lose the extra pounds, Trotman began running, working out and lifting weights. Nothing worked.
In the span of one year, Trotman gained more than 120 pounds, topping the scale at 366 pounds, twice the amount he weighed at 18.
