Lu Hao from China is only three years old yet he weighs a staggering 60kg (9st 6lb).
Nearly five times the normal size of a child his age, he eats three bowls of rice at dinner time.
When he was born, Lu Hao only weighed 2.6kg (5lb 8oz), but from the age of three months he started to gain weight very quickly.
Just in the past year the toddler has gained 10kg.
Hao is so heavy that his mother Chen Yuan is now incapable of picking him up.
She has to ride him in to kindergarten on a motorbike instead of walking.
The boy's family try to encourage him to exercise, having installed a basketball hoop at home and taking him to the local river to swim.
But no matter how much he exercises he continues to get bigger and his parents say that the activities just make him feel hungrier.
Father Lu Yuncheng worries about his son's health.
'if he continues to grow at this rate his heart could fail,' said Yuan.
