Bride is striving to be the "Fattest woman ever"

Super disturbing. What an idiot. Doctors should intervene ASAP.

Thats the thing though - the doctors do see her routinely as outlined in these web-articles, and they tell her she is playing Russian Roulette...

I dont know why anyone would want to be the heaviest in the world, why anyone would think being that fat is sexy... its not...

I wonder what the psychology behind all this is....There is still so much we don't know about the brain......

Wow, I feel really thin now...

'If they would rather die, they had better do it, and decrease the surplus population.'

I feel incredibly sorry for her. This obsession is obviously an extreme form of eating disorder...and it's a classic co-dependent relationship.

I hope they can both get some help...and soon.

I just cant feel sorry for someone who willingly does this to theirself. The only time in any interview Eman has ever done, that her kids get mentioned, its from everyone else - and never by her. Everyone else talks about the kids - except her.

Dr Phil's website had some video clips from her private intervention that I sat here, listened and was STUNNED by the enabling that the boyfriend (what a putz) and her sister (what an idiot) are doing. I will though, give kudos to the boyfriend because in one of the video clips he did give her an ultimatim (granted, a little wussy) but did say he would call off the wedding if she continued.

I know of patients where I work who have bonafide true medical conditions that caused their weight gain (tumors of the brain/hypothalamus/pituitary region) who after successfully having the tumor removed, are losing the weight - granted a little more difficult than others. I also have patients who have extreme cases of Insulin Resistance and really aggressive forms of PCOS that make it that much more difficult to lose weight.

Im sorry, I dont have any sympathy for someone who willingly contributes to the problem for theirself.

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.

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 :[

Ugh! Like in an earlier post I made, there was a horror movie about that (mostly, the end goal was betting on how big the women would get before they die), but I had no idea there were actual websites dedicated to watching people eat...and...feeders. Okay, exercise motivation for the day - being thoroughly creeped out.

ummmm....
"The bride-to-be says she takes pride in having been fitted for the largest wedding dress in history and thinks more women should embrace their curves.

“The bigger I get, the better I feel,” she said. “I feel confident and sexy.The more weight I gain, the more guys want to be with me, the more sex I have.”

How many guys here agree with that??? lol

When I was just a little bit chubby and healthy I couldn't get a piece of tail to save my life. When I'm fat it happens sometimes but I am too fat to be naked so I decline. Maybe she's on to something LMAO

Back on topic I feel sad for this woman. How the **** does she whipe her *kitten* after dropping the kids off at the pool. I had a hard time at 257 lbs I can't imagine myself at 800 pounds I would have to tie a rag to a broom stick

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.

Sounds like a slow moving horror movie.

I wonder if her "fiance" has an insurance policy out on her?

Food expense of 30,000 calories per day must be exponential. I guess her fiance is a chef...but still.

She looks so happy though...I guess whatever floats one's boat. Or ship.

This!

I feel ill.

How can she do that to herself?

I wonder if you get paid some sort of a prize for having a World Record? Maybe the guy wants her to get a million dollars (plus I'm sure she is getting paid to be on TV), then he will feed her to death (he is a chef), she'll die (just like the other woman died) and he'll get all her money!
If she does have a life insurance, it must be very expensive, because they look at your health, your weight and that's how they estimate your payments.
And feeding her is expensive too. Where does she get all the money for that? Just makes you wonder...

This is just sad :frown:

this...

The UK Channel 4 tv series called BodyShock was very interesting... and horrifying... They did documenteries on Half Ton Mum/Dad/Son...

half ton son is on youtube...

it is tragic yet motivational at the same time

At least she is getting help from Dr. Phil now! He talked some sense into her.

Lets hope she follows through

this absolutely disgusts me. i guarantee she's on disability and is getting MY tax dollars to basically eat herself to death. i work in a nursing home and you would be surprised at how many residents we have that are ridiculously young and that the only reason they are in a nursing home is because they are morbidly obese and can no longer take care of themselves. again, MY tax dollars at work, seeing as most of them are either on medical assistance or just don't pay their debt to the home.
