Does it have to do with your interest in medicine? Are you specifically interested in working with overweight and obese patients? If so, I'd imagine it could be incorporated into your personal statement. I definitely wouldn't list it as an EC though. Also, some secondaries ask about your proudest accomplishment/a challenge you have overcome/etc., which could be an excellent place to discuss your weight loss if you choose to leave it out of your primary application. Congrats by the way, that's a really impressive feat.
