post 25 . . . I found her website.

So supposedly I can put a link in here now?


Warning, she's really not wearing much, probably don't want to look up at work.

Going to it now!

Wow, thanks for posting. It really puts things in perspective.

I too was heading for an early death. The way I was going, I'd probably have had a heart attack by the time I was 40. At my heaviest, the most basic of life tasks became difficult (winded trying to put on my shoes, difficulty getting in and out of cars, etc.).

We all need to be reminded about how precious life is and how we can't ever take for granted our health.

@MrsBonsai - Totally Disgusting!

People might need to be reminded that this is NSFW. It looks like some porn site.

Yes it is.

NSFW?

I had to google what NSFW meant. Thank you, I edited for the warning.

Not Safe For Work.

People in an office environment might not want to click on that link and have that on their work monitor.

Wow congratulations on your weight loss Matt!

I know this is old but how on earth did she get pregnant being so obese. I thought obese woman had issues with pregnancy.

It's very sad to see that she wants to continue in this vein. very very sad.

but maybe she wants a shot at tv so someone will offer her gastric bypass for free.

I am so very grateful that you posted this story. I am one of the yo-yo dieters who has lost and gained a lot of weight and am ready to do this for the last time because I would honestly rather be healthy and be able to do things I want to do than eat. I am tired of wedging myself into an airplane seat and worrying that this time I won't. The seat belt buckles, but at the end of the belt. SIGH. I am joining weight watchers and will keep going to the meetings mostly for accountability.

Thanks again for the wake up call. I needed it.

Good for you shshshhh. That will certainly help you learn. I think it will be good for the structure to start and then you will know if you should decide to go another route. Give it fair chance and learn all you can.

That's where some of the issues lay in not knowing which is a better choice. You may know but some days, you just don't want to go that way.

With WW knowing that you have a weigh in coming up, you're going to want to see that scale move, and i mean down for sure.

What is very sad is that someone must have been feeding her, at least some time in the preceding month. It could be that she got into such terrible condition cos someone said I'm not bringing you any more food and she ended up with no care at all, but at least up to about 550lbs someone must have been bringing food - who? Why? What did they bring? And if someone was feeding her then how come there was nobody who cared to come and see her when she was in the holding area?

Sometimes it's misguidedly loving someone to death - she wants it and she gets upset when I don't bring it so I have to bring it to keep her "happy", sometimes it's a thought process of well she's 600lbs, if she loses a bit of weight she'll still be 500lbs so it doesn't matter any more, sometimes it's a head in the sand "she doesn't eat that much really" - it boggles the mind as to how people continue to over-feed someone who cannot make any food for themselves.

It's a tricky area, because on the one hand you have human rights and disability rights, but on the other the duty of care, that there was a case that same at least to charges being filed a few years ago of a mother over-feeding a child, and if you are in a similar kind of dependent situation where you cannot directly influence your own food intake it's abuse to bring that amount of food even if the person asks for it. Let's say a simialr example that you are home nursing someone and they say go on nurse, give me the whole bottle of morphine - if that kills them then you will be done for homicide, so why this extra leniency that if you are caring for someone who says go and get me 8 cheeseburgers that that isn't abuse?
