40 stone 17yr old from whales.

front page of the sun today.

a rather large girl who is claiming to be desperate to loose weight now that she's 40 stone.

left it a bit late didn't you love!

if you managed to put 7 stone on in one year you dont sound very desperate to loose weight.

its taxpayers money that fed her up and now she want taxpayers money to loose weight...

i say fk off...

start running instead of wasting mine and yours cash on this lump.

Stop eating. Keep walking. If it doesn't come off then I'm going to stop eating and start walking to save buying food every again.

[Muzzer]

On the one hand I feel sympathy for the girl's plight. She obviously has major food 'issues' and there's a strong argument that people in her situation are in a vicious circle of eating because they're depressed, which makes them bigger, which makes them more depressed, which makes them eat more, etc.

On the other hand, I can't help thinking that my own dignity and self-respect would, much before I reached 40 stone, make me think

"st, I'm massive. I won't eat that third cream cake today and I'll haul my big ass down the gym"

[Asterix]

Apparently she looks in the mirror, feels sad and feeling sad makes her eat.

The fundamentals of fatdom exist, she needs to eat less and move more, but she needs a shrink not a dietitian.

So Wellspring in the US spend 9 months helping her shift weight with proper diet and exercise and then she gets home and puts it all back on again... so what's missing? Someone saying "no" perhaps?

I suspect she is lazy and needs constant motivation and pressure to look after helself but surely she must have a "feeder" that's supplying her with enough cake to make this happen? Isn't that child abuse?

And the strict 1,500-calorie-a-day intake that Wellspring nutritionists prescribed has long been replaced with the old demons of cake, chocs, crisps and endless loaves of bread – washed down with bottles of Coke.

Georgia, now a gigantic size 36, said: "I'm finding getting in and out of bed very difficult at the moment so I usually get up around 10am. I usually just stay in my room and watch TV for an hour or so until I find the will to face the day.

"Breakfast is usually a bowl or two of cornflakes with two slices of toast and two glasses of Coke.

"After that, I usually try to help mum around the house, but I get very tired and out of breath quickly at the moment.

"I'm only managing to get out the house about once a week when I try to go to town on the bus. Of course people stare, but I don't care what they think any more – I'm used to it.

"We have fish and chips for lunch quite often and usually I eat two portions. Otherwise, it's sandwiches with six slices of bread and crisps.

"I find snacks harder to resist as the day goes on and I often eat two Snickers bars at a time. At night I eat a main meal, then more biscuits, crisps and chocolates as I get bored.

"Afterwards, I feel terrible as I know I'm letting myself down, but I don't even care what I look like. I'll just put on any clothes that fit me."

I don't doubt that there is some degree of mental issue here but ultimately it's self-destruction, slow suicide by pie.

I'm a fatty but I'm also sensible enough to put the fork down now and again and go for a walk, at 17 I would have been at the gym twice a day. Still it's bound to be everyone else / society that's to blame for this, not the parents or the girl in question.

She needs help from a proper specialist with psychology and eating disorder experience.

There was me thinking this was about sea based carnivorous mammals.

But she can't afford to join a gym and her disabled mum won't cook her buffalo so she can't help it.

[munroman]

So she smokes, eats 2 snickers bars at a time, but can't 'easily' afford the gym?

And 'The State' is meant to help her? Sounds like she has had more money spent and opportunities given than the average person gets in a lifetime.

Who is paying for all the pies, it must cost a fortune to eat so much.

Spend the money on our troops and let her burst!

Send her to Afghanistan and use her as cover for a tank or two.

[dudleybloke]

how can she afford 2 portions of fish and chips for lunch?

if she's forced to survive on standard benefits she couldn't afford to eat that much!

she could drink nothing but water for 6 months with little ill effect!

lets at least render her down to recoup some of our tax money!

[maxrider]

LOSE!

[Asterix]

She's really anorexic.

Every time she looks in the mirror she sees a fat person.

If you are suggesting what I think you are then stop it. Right now.

And go and sit on the naughty step.
