    Crazy...I personally don't think anyone should give her interviews or promote her "mission" in any way, shape or form...

    Ordinarily, I'd just think she's stupid and crazy and not give her another thought. But, she has a young daughter. When I think about the life that little girl is going to have, it makes me really, really sad.

    I've seen that lady before...she is sooooo messed up and has no insight into what she is doing to herself. It would also be one thing to have that ridiculous goal, but she has kids and it is completely unfair and abusive to them as a parent. Truthfully I think she just has given up and it is easier to just eat yourself to death then to take off 300 pounds, plus she has found acceptance from men who have a fetish for big women so I am sure that has brainwashed her also.:ohwell:

    In the U.S., people on disability don't get enough to cover that much food (on top of other normal expenses), unless she's gaining all that weight eating nothing but white rice and vegetable oil, and even then...

    And she's not.

    She's unable to work because of her weight (articles say) so my guess is that some of it comes from disability and some of it from her fiance, who also cooks for her.

    They said she's eating 20,000 calories a day! They made a list of what she ate and at what times on a day they were filming. It was an enormous amount of food, and she ate like every 1 1/2 all day long! I have binge eating disorder and bulimia, and I know what it's like to eat 10,000 calories in a sitting. I ate my way to 350 pounds. Watching her made me feel sad. I hope I don't turn into her. She's in a wheelchair, she has fat that hangs in rolls clear down to her ankles, she lays in bed all day. I have two kids just like she does, and I don't want to do to mine what she's doing to hers.

    She said on the show that she get's paid for her fetish pictures that are up on websites. Apparently enough to live comfortably.

    The 30,000 to 50,000 calories a day floored me.

    I don't think you should worry that you're going to turn into her...the fact that you're aware of your situation and working to counteract it (and not TRYING to gain like that idiot), says everything!

    Congrats on your loss so far! :flowerforyou:

    it breaks my heart when i think about what it would be like not being able to move... or move comfortably..

    I have bad knees and it breaks my heart thinking what it would be like not being able to to do the things i love like dance or play with my dogs or walk along with my favorite people.. it breaks my heart when I see others who struggle everyday with movement because of one reason or another... who just want so badly to be able to make it to point A to point B without a significant amount of pain... and then we have people like that.... who want to be that way...
    confined to a bed... to a wheel chair... by choice...
