    Renee (the half-ton mom) was also in denial, saying her stomach has always been flat, and her waist is actually small. We all battle with our various areas of denial. How many of us see ourselves in our heads like we look in our photos, you know?

    I've always been in denial and photos of me at my highest weight couldn't possibly be me. I also was in denial about some of my food for a really long time. Of course now I have the opposite issue, I feel like I weigh 300 lbs and can't believe photos of me are me because I'm obviously bigger (in my mind).

    Wow, watching Half Ton Man now. That part where he says that he would "rip to shreds" anyone who denies him what he wants - scary!!

Then he says that he avoid high fat, high sodium foods.
    Was this the one who had the wife who was buying food for him and she said something about he can't drink water so she was buying him soda pop? And he was saying something about how he likes them fat, 40 and something else that starts with an f?

    Yeah I saw that. In my photos of me being my heaviest, there was no way I could say I have a little this or that. I was huge and it was heart breaking. I am sorry I missed this marathon. I always find out too late.

    I saw that program about the 900 pound woman and just couldn't get it out of my head. She was only about 27 years old. It made me feel so bad I was sorry I watched it.
