Some of them would eat a lot of fast food if they had that option. It’s easy to be without fast food when you don’t have access to it.

Also, it is WAY easier for some people to be skinnier. I, personally, feel terrible whenever I’m bulking because I hate eating a lot. If I eat an amount of food when I actually enjoy the taste of the food, I will LOSE weight. I have now lost around 20 pounds during the last few months just eating whenever I feel hungry.

The dude is 700 pounds. I would BET his diets failed because he couldn’t stick to them and continually relapsed back into his old habits … not because he was eating 1500kcal/d with ~40% of it being whole wheat.

He needs professional help - someone who has actually helped people get thin as well as someone who can address the psychological aspects that are very likely driving this.[/quote]
He needs a kick in the balls and a shove off the bed. At least make him work to climb in and be lazy. Nothing like a 700 lb. “get up” and kicks in the nuts.[/quote]

YOU are (short form for the non-retarded: you’re) an idiot.

All of you idiots are idiots for not fixing the underlining.

Look, this is a 700 pound person. He needed a forklift to get out of his house.

These people have been COMPLETELY sedentary for YEARS. Even asking him to “get up” is asking him to wrench 500+ lbs off the ground from a completely disadvantageous position. He has so much fat his mobility is shot even if he HAD the strength to do so… and it ain’t a solid, symmetrical and controllable barbell here, so most peoples’ impressions of the difficulty involved would be terribly misguided. Slap that kind of awkward mass on anyone here and it would be crazy to do.

Forget a kick in the balls, he probably wouldn’t be able to get up with a cattle prod stuck in his ass, a gun to his head and the first real pussy he has ever seen waiting for him on a silver platter 5 feet away.[/quote]

anonym has said all that needs to be said.

I mean really these guys think just “KICKING HIM IN THE NUTS” is what it takes to move him, how closed minded can you be?

Good job solving the worlds problems you pussies.

Dude needs a kick in the nuts, a fire under his ass, ant in his pants or what ever the fuck sounds friendly.

Keep giving his lazy ass excuses and he will gain more.

He need lyposuck all those fat cells out + vas to get him out of the gene pool.

HG, not everyone is as tough as you. Some people need a softer approach or they just start crying and become mentally paralyzed.

Natural selection then. Let those motherfuckers figure themselves out.

Did you mean “compare” or did you mean “with”. Either way it’s so hard not to, maybe the 700 lb man is the real RogueVampire.

Yep…although good luck finding said nuts.

Don’t see why they should be treated differently than any other self-harming mental person. We ignore it at our (tax paying) peril :wink:

I think Robert Gibbs is already mentally paralyzed by his situation. A softer approach put him where he is. He filmed that first video the day before his 23rd birthday, in tears about his predicament. I wonder whether it’s more likely that his family helped him take the first step by not gifting him with a cake, OR… if they justified giving him one because it was his 23rd and to ‘cheer him up’ after he cried the day before (even if it meant that he may not see his 24th)?

There is no easy way. “Desperate times call for desperate measures” and all that…any and every solution is going to be unpleasant from his view.

I think you are right. I still think small steps need be taken like someone probably already said.

good point.

First off…TWO LARGE PIZZAS AND LITERS OF SODA is one freaking meal. I don’t understand that. Knowing your situation…and continuing to eat like that at every meal indicates not just a mental disorder…but pure dysfunction at life. 2 whole pizzas and liters of soda don’t just slide down easily…especially when you are so fat you can’t even get up to pay the delivery guy.

No one gets like that without enablers. They are just as insane as this.
