Man weighing 1,200 pounds seeks life-saving surgery in Italy

I would think when he was like 600 pounds he might wanna get some treatment..guess not, now hes doubled that and he'll prob. die.

 

I wonder how much he eats, they didn't say. I know the previous heaviest man alive ate ridiculous amounts.

 

no one has mentioned that his boobs are huge!!!! and how do you get that dang fat anyway?

 

man tits. hes not a women.

Even if they don't know what the problem is, it says he was almost 300 lbs at 22, so clearly that was his fault.</div>I agree competely. Summed up what I was thinking. There are 3 kids at my school that are pretty big, two are boys and one is a girl with chin hair. They all three look exactly alike, which is pretty sad. I kinda feel sorry for them, but it is their fault they are that way. I am pretty sure they don't have any disorders or problems, it is their fault.I would feel sorry for them if it was a disease, but I am pretty sure it isn't.

 

Yeah, but many times it's a psychological disorder pertaining to perhaps their family life, so in that way it might not be their fault. It's often a direct result of parenting. (or lack thereof)

 

You ever seen the movie the BLOB... welll that basically says it all. Also kinda funny cause if he gets mad he will turn red. That's the white effect for ya.grrrrr...

I would say its half his fault because he didnt try to get help.

 

Obesity can be blamed on many things - I've seen a show where theres this 5 year old who already weighed 400 lbs. A lot of it was her mom's fault because she felt bad not giving her daughter food, and alot of it was obviously a disease. There are probably different types of this disease, either it can be combined with genetics or something else. For example, it could be an internal problem where the person is just severly depressed, or some kind of pathalogical disorder; althought I doubt this person in the article is the pathalogical type - it looks more of a genetic thing.

 

That is sick. If anyone has ever seen Nip Tuck, there was an episode of a lady like that, but worse. She stayed on her couch for three years straight, and never made a trip to the bathroom, just did it right there. Hopefully this guy makes it out ok but how the hell do you get that big?

 

Aww geez... just did it there?!?!This is fricking sick. That's gotta be a disease, like at 500 lbs you gotta tell yourself you gotta go down. He probably has no reason to look more attractive or he just doenst care

That guy has a computer right next to his bed...he's got it made. :closedeyes:
