    Her fiance probably has some good life insurance on her and has his fingers crossed.

    In my opinion it's an illness/addiction.

    That boyfriend is evil...how could he want someone he loves enough to get married to destroy her body that way? And enable and encourage it!

    that is so sad...

    well, that's just because you're Canadian. Silly Canuck.

    Why would someone aspire to that? It makes me shudder to think of the damage she's doing to her body! Arteriosclerosis, diabetes, metabolic syndrome, hypertension . . . it's insane!

    And who the heck could eat 30,000 calories?!

    those legs?! how can that be comfortable? I'm uncomfortable with my thighs having a bit of jiggle, but hers have layers!
    It worries me that no one is trying to help her. If she was aiming to be the skinniest woman on the planet, everyone would be trying to check her in to a hospital for an eating disorder, but because it's the other way around no one seems to care. This is just as disordered as the opposite extreme.

    I read this earlier this morning.
    I assume they have a 'feeder' relationship.
    Her goal to be the biggest woman... how sad.
    It's one thing to 'accidentally' get to that point - but forcibly making yourself larger? Disturbing.
