Wanting to Be Fatter

I caught part of the Tyra talk show the other day on women who like being obese. I can't seem to get what one woman said out of my mind. At a little over 500 lbs, she actually wants to be fatter. Her ultimate goal is to reach 1,000 lbs. She recently had a baby and her partner is fine with her wanting to get heavier.

I can't imagine living and truly enjoying life at 500 lbs. At my highest, 210 lbs, life was difficult. Just trying to do everyday tasks as a wife and mother was hard. At times, I struggled with breathing. I felt terrible when I couldn't keep up with my oldest kiddo or was too out of shape to run and play.

Is it really possible to truly enjoy being 500+ lbs? And actually want to stay at that weight range? Part of me thinks that woman on the Tyra show is just putting on an act, pretending to be happy and carefree. What do you think?
 
Wow, didn't see that one coming! I can't imagine wanting to be bigger. Did she explain WHY? lol. That's my question.. why.
 
Basically, she just thinks her fatness looks good. She even makes a living off of it (sexy online modeling or whatnot).

At one point on the show, Tyra made a comment about how out of breathe she looked during home footage of her walking down the driveway to get the mail. This woman actually said, "Walking is overrated."

How does a person like not having full mobility? I'm trying hard to relate, but it just seems hokey to me.
 
Wow, I'm not sure I could ever relate to her. I just don't quite understand and don't see how I ever would.

Very interesting how people can think and act though. I'm not sure if it's good thing that she's got the support of her husband because he loves her, or if he shouldn't be supporting her because he loves her.

I find it very hard to relate.. I mean whats her reasoning.. Using her weight to make money?? That right there is a huge red flag.. online dating for bbw.. I mean dont get me wrong some of these women are beautiful but inside I just see them as hurting.. it shows in their actions. A part of me knows tht at times I don't feel the best about myself and have some down right bad self images and sometime I think that is why I do alot of self sabotage.. because I don't think im worthy.. ohhh wow.. im having an ahhh-haa moment.. LET THE LIGHT COME IN!
 
I've been 368 lbs at my heaviest. I never had a problem with my weight, I had friends, a decent sex life, and in nice clothes and with make up on, I looked okay. I went out, got compliments, and anybody would have said that I'm an all around happy and content person.

But I wasn't. And I don't believe for a second that this person is either. I just don't. How can you be happy if you're too big to tie your shoelaces or even wipe your bum without problems? When every step you make is a problem, and a flight of stairs puts you at risk of dying from a heart attack? When people avoid sitting in a bus next to you, and people on the street make derogatory remarks behind your back? When you can't get a job because you're too much of a risk in your current condition? When your joints ache and the skin under your belly and boobs is red raw, and every move makes it worse? The list is endless....

Yes, maybe that woman seems happy, and does her best to make it believable. Maybe she actually told herself so often that she's happy and likes the way she is that she does believe it by now, but it's still a lie. I am sorry, but if she tries to put weight on at 500 lbs, there must be something wrong with her. Some really bad underlying psychological problem. And somebody should help her, instead of exploting her by dragging her into talkshows and stuff like that.

Her husband is probably one of those sick feeder guys, who just enjoys having her entirely dependant on him once she's too big to even move or look after herself. And I feel sorry for the kid....she is going to be dead in a few years if she goes on like this, and the kid will be without a mother. :(

There are all kinds of crazy people in the world. I can't understand why people would want to eat their way into that kind of existence, but having done that, still want to do it? I don't think she is sane.

1,000 pounds would turn her (in crude terms) into Jabba the Hutt. Maybe she likes that, but I doubt the people around her will like having to assist her in doing the most basic things (like going to the bathroom?).
 
I just watched a clip on The Tyra Banks Show website about this women and was disgusted on what came out of that woman's mouth. She wants to be 1000lbs? What kind of life is she going to have at that weight?

Here I am trying to loose more than 100lbs to improve my health and prolong my life and this woman wants to gain weight to make herself happier?

This woman needs psychiatric help. Now.

its not the weight that is making her happier its the publicity and possible easy money she is making by advertisements and going on shows like this its the attention that she craves
i just dont understand how her husband can stand back and watch unless he has a life insurance policy

Yeah, it's basically like giving yourself a death sentance. Why would she possibly want to do that to herself and her family?!

It's crazy how nothing can legally be done to this woman to help her. I agree with the psychiatric help. If "we" do nothing and watch as a person destroys and kills themselves, isn't it illegal?!
 
It especially bothers/concerns me that this woman has a child!!! Talk about a horrifying example to be setting, not to mention denying the child a normal/healthy life. There are surely psychological issues at play here, and I hope someone close to the family will see it and insist on outside help, even just for the sake of the child.

It is outrageous that someone would set some kind of twisted goal for themself like getting to a weight of 1,000 lbs! And who has to pay the related health bills???
Grrrr...:cuss:

ABBA
 
Ooo I saw that! My mouth was gaping the entire episode!

I don't think she actually wanted to be a 1000 lbs, it sounded to me like she just had extremely low self esteem and was simply playing into what her boyfriend wanted.

I really hope she gets help, if not for herself for her child.

Edit: Not to mention the way she did those degarding tasks for guys online (and her boyfriend HELPED HER!!!!!), I'm sure it's low self esteem, and insecurity.

That actually disgusted me more than her weight. The fact that she wore a dog collar for men for money...I wonder if her boyfriend even has a job.

Disciple, hope you're not too mad at me. :D

I just keep thinking back to when I was at my heaviest. The simplest of tasks (like tying my shoes) was hard to do. And forget playing with my kids. I was too tired and hurting most of the time. And clothes shopping was a pain because I had to go to specialty shops and pay up the whazoo for clothes I only remotely looked good in.

For this woman to say she 100% happy living like she is, that's incredible to me.
