OMG!! Did anyone else see this on TV this evening? This lady weighs 800 lbs currently and is hoping to surpas the record of 1,200 lbs. She eats on average of 30,000 calories a DAY!! This is crazy to me! It's not like she can't lose or is having a hard time...she is purposfully doing it to her body!

    Then she will die and everyone will try and blame everything and everyone for it but her.

    Why would someone want to be that over weight? I'm more interested in the pathology behind all this craziness! I want to know WHAT GOT HER TO THIS POINT???

    Jeez, that's close to how many calories I eat in a month! It's perfectly fine if she enjoys being big- to each his own and all, but at that point I can't imagine that's at all healthy...

    Dr. Phil was able to talk some sense into her and now she is going to a treatment center to get help and get healthy. It may have a happy ending.

    If one is happy being heavy then that's their biz...I agree, who am I to say they *should lose weight. BUT, at 1,200 lbs you cant even move....or walk...or anything, I mean she will just be bed bound...why would you want to be that way?

    I actually saw her on Dr. Phil this past week (dont even ask why I was watching Dr. Phil lol)

    at the time of the show she was only 550-ish and wanted to get to 800 but by the end of the show she agreed to go to a facility to lose weight and I presume counseling.


    I guess that was a big fail

    Reminds me of the horror movie Feed - wherein this guys feeds women to death (kind of willingly on their part; they eat everything, just don't know he's actively killing them), and an internet audience bets on how big they will get before dying.

    They showed her eating on the show, what she had as a "snack"...it was like a huge stack of pancakes, some belgian waffles etc etc, etc....basically like 6 or 7 huge meals and a dr pepper she consumed all at one time!

    I'm also interested in the psychology behind the fiance. He's got to be a feeder - and I just don't get how that can turn anyone on.

    I don't understand how you can even eat that many calories in one day. As a nursing mom the days I workout my calorie goal is around 3000 and by the end of the day I'm tired of eating!

    I also can't fathom having a 9 foot waist, wow.

    I 've seeen so many stories on these kinds if people,,,and I'm so disturbed by them....why would anyone purposely eat themselves to death???
    I guess this is an ED in the extreme opposite direction....

    i wanna know what's wrong w/the dude (and the girl, of course). something way mental going on there. I feel like they're using each other. she's using him to have all the food he wants and he's using her maybe as a taste tester and to praise his food. I just imagine their whole relationship revolves around food.

    That guy must have a huge bbw fetish, if you love someone wouldn't you actually encourage the other to lose the weight to live longer? This is just scary and sad, If shes truly happy being in that body then there are some deep rooted issues there.

    Lavish wedding: $200,000

    Crane to lift yourself out of bed: $60,000

    The moment you step on the scale and, prior to it unceremoniously breaking into hundreds of pieces, you see that you're still "only" the weight equivalent of 2-and-a-half Michael Moores: Priceless.

    it's not even about that i don't think.

    There are guys who pay to watch extremely large women eat....these women have websites setup with webcams and the men pay.....like food porn

    there are also men who take it even further and get off to the idea of feeding a woman and watching her get fatter. they are called "feeders"

    I watch too many talk shows :[

    at least she has a goal.

    there are far too many people who go through life without a purpose.


    i cant even imagine what a 30K calorie a day diet looks like.

    Just like there's a woman who wants to make herself a quadriplegic.... It's has to do with how the brain thinks and what gives them pleasure... it's really strange, and I just couldn't imagine ever wanting to be like that, but me becoming a social worker, I try to look at it from a different prospective b/c obviously these things are not normal, and we would figure out their thinking process and try to alter that into a more healthier one or a more productive one...

    side note: or paraplegic... can't remember which one...

    I find it hard to believe that her waist size is 9 feet around.

    Dollars to donuts the groom doesn't carry her over the threshold.
