This has been put into the Dieting category. For what reason I don’t know, but I couldn’t find any category for this to actually go into, and this actually should be the “Light At The End Of The Tunnel” for any dieter.
I just want to set something straight before I go on a rampage about the N.J. women who wants to weigh 1000 pounds. I do not hate morbidly obese, or obese people. I was considered morbidly obese two years ago, and lost 120 pounds, and now I’m still technically obese. So this hit me pretty hard when I heard that she had two kids. Part of my reason for losing my weight was so I not only could be a better mother to my little one, but so I also would be around to see her grow up.
My mother past away when I was 30 years old, and she was overweight too. She died at 63 years old from a blood clot in her leg that caused a massive heart attack. This Donna Simpson woman goes on to say how she is not hurting anyone by doing this, and has a right to eat, and do what she wants. This is somewhat true. She does have a right, but at the cost of not only killing herself, but leaving her two kids without a mom is just selfish. She weighs 602 pounds already, and can’t walk more than 20 feet right now. She says she is normal, and healthy, though I really find that hard to believe that at that weight anyone could be healthy. I wonder what kind of cholesterol medication she is taking. As far as normal, who is going to clean her when she can’t walk anymore? Who… her kids? How is that normal.
She does not ever say what type of insurance she has, if any. I’m sure we the taxpayers are flipping that bill. She does say how much her grocery bill is. It costs her a whopping 750.00 a week. How does she pays for all this? Her main source of income to support herself is by appearing on a web site where people pay to watch her eat food, and get photos of her showing of her extra bulge in a bikini. She has a boyfriend who she says supports her 1000 pound goal, and thinks he would like it if she were bigger. Now how is that called love if he doesn’t care if she dies by doing this to her self?
I will say this whole story upset me so much, and not because of how much she wants to weigh, but because she doesn’t seem to care about her two kids, and what she’s doing to them. I really feel this should be a case DYFS should look into for the safety of the poor kids. Maybe that would be an eye opener for her. Then her new goal could be to be a good mother by living longer to see her kids grow up.
Some side notes… She already holds the Guinness World Record for the world’s fattest mother. The current world record for the fattest woman was also held by a N.J. woman who weighed 1800 pounds. She died in 2008, and was only 49 years old. If you heard about this story, or just read it here I would like to know how you feel about what she’s doing. Is this fair to her kids, or even normal. Who knows maybe she will read it, and see it as an eye opener to not kill herself by reaching her goal? In the end that’s what will happen, and her two kids will pay by not having a mom any more.
P.S. I also don’t have a problem with her selling photos to make money, as that’s her choice. It’s why she’s doing it that upsets me.

I’ve been trying to lose weight for years. Actually I have over and over again. It gets old.
I’m going to try another diet plan, but I’m not sure which one. Have any of you tried the Every Other Day Diet or the Diet Solution Program? If so, how did it work for you?

I have tried a lot of weight loss products over the years and to be frank without much success. I had my doubts concerning hoodia since it does sound to good to be true. Nevertheless I did buy some and have been on it for some weeks and I must admit it really does suppress the cravings, I find myself snacking less often between meals, because of this I have been able to lose roughly ten pounds in about six weeks. So for me this actually works!

Dieting is really a hard thing to complete and I continue having to do it over and over again. The only real diet programs that have helped me slim down happen to be based on calorie cycling and also hCG.

Hoodia is a relatively new herbal supplement. there is next to no medical study behind it. from the research that I have seen it has a mild effect as an appetite suppressant with no direct effect on fat loss…
