Should I LOL?
 

Christ, thats sad and ironic. Gives a whole new meaning to "a treadmill will save your life someday" lol.

Good reason to not being a fat lard! 500+lbs really?

I normally have very little sympathy for people who manage to get THAT fat, but thats sad :(

35 stone? more like 35 boulders...its sucks that someone died but it should be a wake up call to some as well.

Meh, I look at smokers the same way.

They know it's stupid.
They know it'll kill them.
They know it's unnecessary.

What's the diff, really?

There are always underlying issues. Whether it's an inability to cope with daily life stressors or whether it's something more serious... it's the issues and thoughts that maintain the crazy behaviour.

Thats a pretty shitty story, too bad the family had to deal with the loss AND the embarrassment of the scummy news. It seems pretty stupid that the firemen couldnt lift her. 500lbs in an emergency isnt really that much.

Reminds me of my neighbors when I was younger. I called to order a pizza one day and when I gave the guy my address, he was like "oh you live right next to Danny, we love that kid." funny at the moment but overall sad.

Lifting a 500lb person would be much more difficult than a 500lb weight... you've nothing to grab onto, really. Depending on how bad the fire situation was, they likely didn't have time to manoeuvre her onto a canvas or whatever they do... I am having a hard time visualizing a 500lb person, but I am not sure if there would be issues with doorways etc.

I honestly don't understand how anyone can be that big.
Your self control must be horrible in order for you to reach 300lbs+ especially if you are a woman.
