Are you ever amazed at the fact that some people haven't killed themself?

That sounds mean, and I don't mean it to be mean spirited. Suicide and depression is terrible and a battle I have personal experience with.

I ask the questions because I'm watching "my 600 pound life". The woman on right now is probably in her 30s. She was just as the doctors office and tried to use the bathroom, but when she sat down she broke the seat. Two full grown males weren't strong enough to be able to help her pull herself up, they had to call 911 and have a team of firefighters come and help her stand up (by stand up, I mean get back into her wheelchair).

As I was typing this, she also just met with her doctor and weighed in- and she actually has gained frickin 82 pounds in the two month period she's been trying to lose enough weight to even be able to have her surgery.

I mean she's so big she can't get physical exercise of any sort, even walking. But at that weight, if you're "trying" to lose weight and you can't- well you've failed at life and there's probably no coming back from that failure. At 600 pounds, even without any movement, I would think you could eat 3k cals a day and lose weight.

Sounds like she's doing a fine job of killing herself.

shame on you for body shaming. She needs to be on the cover of the next sports illustrated swimsuit edition to raise awareness for body shaming

Fatties are cancer for the eyes. They gross me out with all of their eating, drinking, heavy breathing, and all of the other noises they make that are associated with being fat. Just gross.

That's really sad. She probably doesn't have much longer to live, anyway. I remember years ago Dick Gregory trying to help a huge guy who had such a severe problem with weight that he hadn't been out of his house in years. He even once got stuck in a door frame and the fire department folks had to come get him out. His story ended very sadly as he lost his battle to lose weight and died an early death. A rather depressing story, to say the least.

I know you are going a different direction with this, but I've met some ppl that are so stupid that I'm impressed they haven't been hit by a car or something.

I have always wondered how Jared Fogle, a guy who was a multi-millionaire and famous for doing nothing but eating Subway and losing weight, wouldn't kill himself after it came out that he was a serial child molester. Going to prison for 15 years, where you will be targeted for being a rich, white pervert, seems worse than taking the easy way out. Even if he survives, when he gets out he will have to live as a virtual recluse.
