That's really disturbing. I'm wondering who keeps feeding these people! The men at least are bed-bound and house-bound, so someone has to bring them food. Why not bring them healthy stuff instead? I feel really bad for them.

this is my question as well. Would someone continue to bring gallons of liqueur to an alcoholic? I hope not. Yet bags and bags of trash food are given to these people....how sad.

some because you get tired of the snarls and growls and having things tossed at you (pillows) when you try portion control or healthy eating. it *is* hard. there is a percentage of giving up in there, saying "if you want to kill yourself like this, FINE."

james. RIP dec 18, 2004. he was my first dominant. i took him to the ER at least 4 times against his will, and each time it was a little worse to get him rehab'ed enough to send him home again. congestive heart failure, he went into the hospital weighing 540 pounds and lost over 75 pounds in two days. TWO DAYS by doing dialysis to get the water off him that his kidneys werent giving enough output.

he had a heart attack. it was a blessing, we knew that the next podiatrist appointment would have been "we have to amputate" and he never would have walked again.

i cannot imagine eating 33,000 calories per day. Seriously...is this even possible? The average adult eats approx 2000 calories per day...so it would take 16 days to eat what this person eats?

Lots and lots of calorie-dense food.
