    That is awful. I hope it's a joke, but I think it is not.

    Wow. She has to live through the rest of the weight gain to get to her goal. It's sad though; a child will be prematurely motherless reguardless. It hurts my heart.

    She even made the statement, "I'm not harming anyone..."

    False.

    She's harming herself...and probably her daughter too.

    Its sad that she thinks so little of her daughter that she will continue to do this -- she will be dead soon and her daughter will be motherless....and the "boyfriend" should be shot (not literally obviously - but....really what is he thinking - you love this woman but you want her to die?)

    WHAT!!! O_O
    who would want to be that big????
    what the hell. Her daughter is going to hate her mom when she gets bigger... and poor daughter might end up big. :\
    im disgusted by this info i just read.
    and her husband supports her the whole way??? are you kidding me????
    if someone was to support someone to get that big.... isnt a good moral for someone to have. even if he does like bigger people that is just disgusting.
    he isnt a great husband on supporting her to get that big... while he is the fit one... maybe he wants her dead for all we know.. :\
    this is just toooooooo crazy!!!!


    im not hungry anymore..... O_O

    That just makes me almost cry! I agree with the other posters, her daughter is going to be motherless. This woman has to have mental or emotional problems. That is just sick!! :cry:

    she's probably doing it for the money, thinking she will cash in at the end... too bad she will probably be dead!

    OMG!!! She can't think that she's healthy... ANY doctor will tell her she's too fat! And did she really call the people her FANS?! Seriously, "They aren't saying it in a bad way," but I bet they aren't 600lbs either! And her poor little girl... she's going to have so many mental problems with kids talking about her mom AND she's going to have to take care of that MASSIVE person when all of her eating catches up with her... poor child.

    You would think at some point child services would step in.. Not what a child needs to be exposed to

    did this make anyone besides me gag? At the end of the article it said her boyfriend is a real belly man.... and he is encouraging her to eat more. Why to people actually pay to watch her eat? Those people need help to

    "Simpson insists she is healthy, even though she can't walk and has to move around with the help of a motorized scooter."

    I didn't read the article but I've heard the story before. I feel like maybe no one has seriously sat this woman down and reminded her that the chances of her ever losing all that weight once she puts it on is slim to none. And even if she has surgeries to help her slim down, the risk of death is still great.

    I unfortunately was channel surfing over the weekend and got sucked into a show (I don't remember what channel) called Half-Ton Mom. It brought me to tears. The poor woman on the show was obese all her life and was in a car accident that left her bed-bound. She just kept eating, and although it was mostly healthy she kept gaining. It was uplifting that she was voluntarily having her story taped in order to inspire others to get help. If I remember correctly she was like 800 or 900 pounds when she finally found a doctor that would actually perform a gastric bypass on her (apparently most doctors will refuse to do it for people over a certain weight). She seemed like she would do well. Before surgery, she was able to do a lot of things on her own like sit up, touch her toes (she did it on camera it was amazing), do her hair an makeup etc. She got her gastri bypass and was doing great, but unfortunately a few days after the surgery she suddenly went into cardiac arrest and passed away. The show literally brought me to tears. And it was shockingly informative to know that the reason some obese people can't lose weight is becasue they really cant. Their metabolism literally stops doing what it should and they simply cannot lose the weight anymore.

    I digress..... but i really hope someone reaches out to this woman and gives her a reality check and she changes her mind and lifestyle. Not just for her daughter, but for herself.

    "Running after my daughter keeps my weight down." SERIOUSLY??!?! She's over 600 pounds and thinks she actually "runs after her daughter" and it "keeps her weight down"???

    I've seen this woman on tv and while I'm not a doctor (I just play one on tv, lol) it would seem she has some mental issues. The more press and tv time she gets, the more encouraged she's going to become. Some people want "fame" at any cost.

    I wonder if she's on any type of government assistance like welfare, disability or food stamps? Are the tax payers helping foot the bill of her quest?

    I also feel bad for her daughter. She probably eats the same crap as the mother and will end up with a weight problem too.

    I really don't care what she does to herself but that child is being punished. She can't possibly take care of her being the big. Another issue i have it that the tax payers are supporting her too. I know she rolled down to get public assistance since she cant walk on her own. They should wire her jaws shut for 2yrs and make her lose the weight or cut her butt off. Why do i have to pay for her to over eat and i can't even take of my own family on the little i make. Totally pissed off.

    This news story is old. This woman is actually trying to lose her weight now. She wants to be about 370, stating this weight will still allow her to be fat enough to attract the men who like larger women, but small enough so she is able to get out of the bath tub by herself. She recently left her fiance, because he did not support her on losing the weight, only gaining it. She is 570lbs currently. Just goes to show, eventually everyone will realize being that overweight is just not healthy!!!!
