World's Fattest Man

TLC channel had program the other day on the world's fattest man:
http://damncoolpics.blogspot.com/200...in-mexico.html

I guess if you are that fat you get personal visits from the writer of
the Zone Diet. I found it interesting that he lost a large amount of
weight in the first 5 months. They had him convinced he would be
walking in another 5 months. Except he didn't lose much more after
that. I get the impression most of these weight loss programs don't
work over the long haul.

totally incapacitated???!

That is bizarre. Feeding those guys that are over 500 pounds must be a
full-time job. Just to maintain 1200 pounds (that is how much the guy in
this story weighed) has to take some massive over-eating. These guys
literally have to be served.

Not only that, but somebody has to give them a sponge bath, since they
cannot shower. You cannot hose them down since they can't move off their
mattress in some cases. Can you imagine the stench of these folks? I have
watched a couple of those shows and they look pretty clean when the crane or
tow-truck comes by to take them to the hospital, but I bet the TV crew has
them cleaned up so people won't get grossed out.

In this case it was his momma who was feeding him. I wondered how she
could afford to feed him so much food.

This guy lives in Mexico and had a servant come in twice a week to
wash him. They showed him lifting his butt up so she could get in and
wash real good. He didn't have any sores like I have seen on American
fatties. That may be partially because he could move around a bit.

Who is paying for all the food and for the servant?

I couldn't really stand to watch the entire hour so if they said I
missed that part. His mother was out shopping for groceries every
day. They didn't look wealthy and I can't imagine that Mexico is too
big on disability payments. He needed medical attention on a few
occasions as well. He told his mother to just feed him and that the
weight was his own problem.

Maybe they can hook him up IV, and saturate him with fatty acids directly
into the bloodstream.

Who needs carbohydrates anyway?
