Re: Morbidly Obese Guy Asks For Help
Such empathetic people you guys are. There but for the grace of god go you, my friends. What pleasure is there in laughing at others misfortune?

Re: Morbidly Obese Guy Asks For Help
There must be very serious issues in that soul of his. I started my weight loss when I was 19 and I am about to turn 25. I grew up and started working and eating better. I saw the food I had been eating my whole life (Lots of fast food! Parents love giving their fucking kids fast foods!) and made a huge change. Someone I know in RI is on a Methadone program along with his father who was a drug dealer when he was young. He claims his father is the reason he is a wreck. He weighed like around 400LBs or something. Maybe 350...somewhere there. Anyway, his mother died young and his father had a kid with someone else. His step-brother is sort of a playboy and goes to the YMCA. They are all on SSI/SSDI. They all live together in a house. They are always putting him down (which seems to happen to depressed people, dun it?). He believes his addiction and obesity is his father's fault. Lack of encouragement and being put down his whole life...and eating the wrong foods which was pushed on him. I know him from the McDonald's I used to go to for Coffee and Lunch. They'd go there everyday and he would fall asleep at the table...lol. Somehow through my mother I got to meet him. His brother didn't like me because I was just a kid then but I'm sure we would along fine (bodybuilders tend to like bodybuilders.). I was just 21 and he was 36 I believe. Anyway, he was a mess. Never showered and stunk...with a huge beard...why the fuck was I talking to him? Just happened to be there at the same time. Talking over a period of six months...giving him tips...saying I'd walk with him (would never do it). Somehow, he started walking and eating better (diet coke, fish sandwich, etc...). He lost like 100 pounds. He wants off that program and to move to California. He hadn't had sex since early 20s...and I doubt that will change since an ugly, balding man with saggy skin isn't quite hunky I imagine. He tells me I'm the reason for his life change...I don't know about that. Maybe...he said I was like a brother to him. I still see him around like at the Supermarket but I don't go to that McDonald's anymore so we're not that close. Did I actually contribute something to make this world better? Opps. God dammit! |

Re: Morbidly Obese Guy Asks For Help
I understand that some morbidly obese people do have mental health problems as do I but by this fatties own admission he lost weight when he dieted so he can do it if he applied himself properly instead of bitching about it, it stands to reason he gained the weight again when he just gives up and starts troughing ONCE AGAIN, I struggle to have sympathy for these people because the majority of their problems are caused by themselves, if he gets himself well then good if not then he will have to meet his maker sooner rather than later.
