Back in December I was doing my Christmas shopping, and I decided to stop at a all-you-can-eat Chinese buffet cause they have an early bird special (I got up at the crack of dawn to avoid the crowds, so I was done with my shopping before 10). I go in, pick a table, and go to fill up my first plate. While getting my food I see this average-looking man holding two plates piled high with damn near everything on the menu. On my way back to my table, I spot him again sitting at a booth in the corner, and across from him was the fattest person I have ever seen IRL. It was easily over 600 lbs, fat rolls sloughing over the side of the booth and under the table, its own fatty scooter parked next to the table. I have no idea what sex it was, its face was such a smooshed up mess of fat I couldn't tell, with the fat forehead, chubby cheeks that stick out almost like horns, and I swear a quad-chin. I honestly don't even know how it managed to cram into the booth, it was that fat. the tables must be bolted to the floor. those weren't its first two plates either, I counted at least 3 empty plates stacked on the far end of the table. Witnessing it gorge itself put a damper on my own appetite, I only ate about half of what was on my plate and left.
 
Side job I run into this one hamplanet often.

First met her almost 15 years ago. And she was average weight for her height. She is maybe 5'5". But is now at least 350. Has a giant bulge on the back of her neck.

For years she worked at the deli at a local grocery store,cleaning up cause she is a tard. Know someone that worked with her back then and during lunch break since they ate free PurplesoreassRex here would just sit and eat the entire hour.

That store closed. And she now works in a school cafeteria. Cleaning again. She snacks all day at work. And last time she fell it took 4 people to get her back up on her feet.

She is so wide that at the side job we give her a seat at the end of the row. Just so she isn't smacking people with her ass. She loves to get up and "dance" at these events.
Sounds like she might have Prader-Willi. Intellectual disability is pretty common in people who have it, and yeah she probably needs a wrangler.

She normally has her mother with her. Not that the mother is much help.


Thinking more she grew up super poor,one parent who is a waitress and 2 older siblings. So free food she is just gonna eat as much as she can.

The place her mother worked at ....I was in there having an early lunch one day. See Hamplanet wolf down enough breakfast to feed 4 people. Then asked for dessert.
 
I didn’t encounter any deathfats but I went to Denny’s for an early dinner because I was out of town visiting a sick relative and it was the closest place. Anyway I was sat at a single booth and realized the other people in the restaurant were couples sitting at full booths with one person on each side because they couldn’t comfortably fit in the single booths.

Old Denny’s restaurants probably need to take the single booths out at this point. What a sign of the times.
 
I used to take my dogs to a vet that was located at the back end of a pet store.
There was a huge woman that worked as a secretary there. She was always drinking a huge Starbucks coffee with caramel drizzle.
She didn't get up and walk around when I was there.. but one time I happened to see her leave for the day.
She used a grocery cart from the pets store to get to her car. She was literally leaning on it as she walked.. when she finally got to her car (which was parked in the closest parking spot to the store as she could get) she left the cart right there. She didn't put it away, obviously.
There always seemed to be a cart behind the secretary desk and at that moment I realized why.
 
The most vivid thing about this for me is how much it reveals about the author. We ALL know this guy. He is the Platonic ideal of that classic marriage between Usenet tough guy and Reddit know-it-all.
As funny as that story is the writer is 100% a redditor. His writing style has that "wubba dub dub! Look I'm Pickle Rick Mortaaaaaay!" Shit down to a T.

Totally — I wish I could show you what this guy looks like in my head because I know we would all come together in agreement. So much about this post gives me warm fuzzy memories of alt.support.childfree as well, the source of a couple of my earliest “laughing at people on the internet” jollies.

He's also fat himself admitting to being 6'1 and 230 pounds. So it's kind of rich he's snarking about fat people.

A smallfat but everyone knows how easily a smallfat can snowball into my 600 pound life territory.
 
Left the US and thought I would not see people of the size one does in America.

This is true to an extent, but in a country with both some wealth and not tending to do other vices (drinking, drugs) much, the fast food has really taken hold.

Anyway, I was in an elevator at the mall and had to quickly decide on the stairs instead, because…400ish pound guy, triple digit temps, plus cologne…could not breathe. He wasn’t eating or doing anything particularly offensive, just stank to high heaven. I can’t say I blame people for not exercising outside when summer weather is basically Arizona, but gyms exist, and not ordering food is free.

I'm sure you are right, but it would help to know the name of the non-American country you are referring to here. 😉

This was laying over for a few days in the Emirates, (not there now, but it was very strange). I thought they were about social climbing and money, but apparently they’re all about that non-pork fast food. It wasn’t really a city until about 1980, so I think going from having very little to everything in a generation really messes with people’s minds.

But yeah. Deodorant doesn’t work super well and everyone drenches in perfume or cologne. Not a fan.
 
I'm on an online forums for bariatric patients. The amount of people I see asking if they can have pizza/soda/beer a few weeks Post-Op is disturbing. Someone recently as a week out of surgery and was already eating pizza. Several people pointed out that they're still technically supposed to be on liquids only which infuriated Fatty McFat who told them to fuck off because it was only one slice.

Why tf would you bother getting the surgery if you can't eat right? Have fun ruining your sleeve and gaining all your weight back (assuming they lose any).
 
My uncle's wife (what does that make her btw? Aunt in-law?) Is slowly becoming my personal fatcow. She is easily 400+ lbs, has maybe 8 rolls on her stomach, and shuffles when she walks, yet somehow shakes the walls with each step. She's taken to posting non-stop on tiktok about her fertility struggles, blaming her stress levels and never her weight. Also about how badly she wants to fuck women. She speaks with a serious mumble and can barely string together a sentence. She's my age so it's super weird to see how quickly she fucked herself up. Her dad is wheelchair bound and obese, and she seems completely oblivious to the fact that she is staring her fate in the face.

I have known a few of these. They never want to acknowledge that obesity can/does impact hormones and even just some weight loss can change it. If/when they do get pregnant, they get offended when the doctor brings up the health risks with their pregnancy. Facts are not fatphobia or bullying or being mean.
Further evidence that deathfattery is just a literal addiction.
No, it totally is. I didn't see how much it was an addiction until I joined the bariatric forums. So many people basically saying the same thing you see drug addicts saying “Its just one time, I only had a little.”

Great idea - bring a life into this world when you can't take care of your own self.

Seeing fat kids with fat parents pisses me the fuck off, and when someone blames everyone else for their own bad choices, you know that they're going to make their kid fat and then blame society somehow.

Overeating feels too good, that's why. Anything that gets in the way of that gets tossed to the wayside, even stuff like potentially having a baby.

They never embraced the fact that they have to change their eating habits for life for it to work, which the surgery was supposed to do by restricting intake. If they think it's 'magical' and that it will work no matter what they do, then they will be sorely disappointed when they inevitably fail to lose weight.
