    WOW!!! Why would someone intentionally do that. I feel so much better since i have lost just 19 lbs. The more active that i am the better i feel. I cant imagine wanting to feel fat on purpose!!! She is very selfish and needs to think of her health and her children. What a poor example.

    This is highly disturbing. I'm just shocked.... 1000 lb goal weight? And OMG, she actually has a site where people pay to watch her eat? WTH? Is there a fetish somewhere in there that I just didn't know about before?

    I work in the Cardiac Department at our hospital....wow! Not trying to judge anyone but what about her child? doesn't she want to stick around long enough to see her grow up. Sorry, I just don't get it.

    What a sad woman.

    "LET'S BECOME THE WORLDS FATTEST WOMAN SO MY LIFE CAN COME TO AN ABRUPT END."

    Great thinking girl ;)

    I didn't even read the article.

    I guess everyone needs a goal.

    Maybe her next goal can be to use the most drugs in the world?

    That is so sad, but the funny part is the last 2 lines. Men actually pay to watch her eat junk food? Is that a fetish or something? Why don't they just go to their nearest IHOP and observe instead of pay to watch. Weird! Thanks for sharing because I feel a little bit better knowing that I am trying to lose instead of gain.

    :sick:

    OMG, that is so not something to read while eating. I practically lost my appetite! That's just nasty! And she has a 3-yr old daughter? Way to be around for her daughter - I foresee an early grave in that woman's future...

    Not to be morbid or anything, but can you imagine her trying to keep up after her daughter, tripping and falling on top of her??? I've read news articles about obese relatives falling asleep and smothing infants. This is just NOT a safe living environment!!

    My sister showed this link to me yesterday. It is very disturbing. Even more so, as a a couple months ago, I read another article about a man who was doing the same thing wanting to beat the record. It's gross and very dangerous. If she doesn't want to be healthy for herself, she could at least want to do it for her daughter.

    This is disgusting, what about her child? and her husband encourages her?? who on earth would do that. i am astonished that people actually pay to watch her eat. and 800 dollars a week? i'm lucky to go through that in a month! i do not know or understand why someone would want to be the fattest woman alive. i would be embarrased

    Actually there is... I forget just what it is called in the underground but it is out there.

    The end part is the best bit "I run a website for men, so they can watch me consume fast food"

    Haha poor woman clearly has no abition. I feel sorry for her!

    I could seriously cry for her. I practically am just thinking about it, and her child! Not that I think it won't get filtered out as spam or anything, but I really want to email her.

    My guess is she has been ridiculed and overweight her entire life - and she has given up and instead of blaming her weight problem on anyone or anything, she is finding it easier to just keep getting fatter "for a reason" instead of working hard to be healthy for herself and her family.

    LOL! Good one! But seriously...that is just disgusting and I feel really badly for that little girl. Just think - her mom will put herself in an early grave, and she will grow up knowing that she would rather be famous than to be healthy and see her daughter grow up.

    "I think he'd like it if I was bigger ... he's a real belly man and completely supports me," she said.

    Seriously? What is this lady thinking!?! Health is obviously not a word in her or her partner's vocabulary. This is sad!

    This makes me think of the movie What's Eating Gilbert Grape where when the mom passes away they have to burn down the house with her in it because she's too big to move out the front door. :frown:
