That's Fit

I agree. I also agree with Shirley and regularguy1985. This is absurd not only for him but others who are huge. Who keeps feeding him? How does he shower and other things? Drive him around? Why! Where are the carrot sticks and celery? The caregivers should be arrested.

Most of the time it's more than just "they're eating too much". It could be all sorts of reasons. eating wrong b/ they don't know what is good for them. Stress (I've seen that add 400lbs on a person), Something wrong medically. rarely is it just because they eat too much.

I had the lapband surgery to help me lose weight. I had several medical issues that pushed me toward the drastic measure of lapband after several failed attempts to lose weight - I would lose it but gain it back in a couple of months plus some. I can tell you from experience that the gastric bypass surgery is not "the easy way out". It has been the hardest thing I have ever done in my life. I do wish I could have done it on my own but I was smart enough to see what it was doing to my health and took the necessary measures to do something about it. Obesity is not something that someone strives for. It seems like I woke up one day and weighed almost 300 lbs. I did what I had to for me and yes I paid for it out of my own pocket.

OK, one thing you have to realize is that if he had to be lifted to get somewhere, how on earth do you think he got to the kitchen? His family fed him. They give food that he eats because that is what he became accustomed to eating. It may have been his fault for gaining too much weight to begin with, however, whoever was feeding him for so many years is to blame. I'm glad he is finally making a change though, it's got to be difficult to lose so much weight like that. When the body is used to eating a certain amount, it has to have that much or more to feel full. Just like when you don't eat for a while, your stomach shrinks and less food will make you feel full. (Not generally anorexia here, just something that happens to the body.) Who knows, maybe the guy got sick of hearing about how people think he was nasty and everything and instead of retreating and hiding, he decided to make a change for the better. I mean, he's getting married! I think that may have been a motivator as well to lose weight too. So, instead of being mean, why not have any words of encouragement; he just may get wind of this and it could help him!

You are not a "regular guy". You are an insensitive creep and a moron. Do us all a favor - sit home and watch Jerry Springer - turn your computer off.

regularguy1985, you are a very insensititive horses ass.
You are a waste of space. If something bad ever happens to you I hope people have more compassion for you than you have for other people.

i AGREE IF HE IS TOO FAT TO GET UP AND STUFF HIS FACE THEN IT'S HIS RELATIVES THAT ARE TO BLAME. I AM SURE HE PRESSURED THEM THOU. I saw one show the guy didn't just have a two liter of pop by his bed it was a 3 liter of faygo for one days drink?. i'm fat by the way 280 l b size 18 though because i work out. i look pretty good and feel great. my mom over fed us as a child and i became a mild food addict while pregnant and have trouble losing the weight. i wish my husband would have taken the edis ice cream from me when i was pregnant when he saw my weight climb from 165 to 230! I know i contributed to it but we need people in our life that stand up and do intervention when needed! don't bring junk food around fatties we want to eat it . out of sight out of mind a lot of times. i wish they would ban food commmercials like Nestle's chocolate bars that make u remember how good they are. I wish this man luck, glad i got my fat ass to the gym and thank my friend kathy for saying. YOU ARE WORTH IT!
