    Where's the actual source of the story? How's it possible to accumulate that much weight through only fat? I'm also surprised he's able to even walk, given the stress on his bones. Shouldn't he had seek help earlier? This is serious stuff, and I feel sorry for him having such a debilitating disease.

    i think ppl that reach this kind of weight truly do have a disease cause i don't really understand it any other way. it has to go beyond just the fact they like food. hope this guy gets the help he needs.
    on a side note, i've become obsessed with watching this show called big medicine on tlc. freaking boggles the mind.

    interesting story.

    i felt sorry for the guy up to the point when he said, "Who can stop me?"

    if he doesn't take the responsibility upon himself first, then IMO the problem will only get worse and worse.

    however, it takes time to resolve this kind of disability and admitting that depression is somewhat of a source of his excessive eating. i guess it's a start. -shrug

    Oh the same website, there was this video on the fattest kid called Jessica Futtert.....i don't think she could walk anymore...Poor dude, i feel sorry for him cause it is out of his control and there is nothing much he could do about it.....(-_-") Hopefully the hospital really would help him...
