So if you are into being completely grossed out, and then feeling either really depressed or disgusted then use your remote to search for four shows called "Half-ton …".
Half-Ton Mom She was 900 lbs, then has gastric bi-pass yet dies two weeks later.
Half Ton Dad He Was 1000 lbs, has had gastric bi-pass and is now down to a slender 500 lbs.
Half Ton Teen He was 850 lbs, had gastric bi-pass I don't know his present status.
I can't believe that there are 2,000,000 Super Morbidly Obese in the US, and there are 15,000,000 Morbidly Obese People.

My present BMI 50.
Even though I was on a path to reach the same weight as the people mentioned above, I still had some feelings of hostility towards these people as I watched the program. As much as I understand their situation I still found myself angry and curious about how they got to that size.
I can't explain my feelings but perhaps there is a greater meaning behind my anger. As I am not that far from being categorized in the same family of Super Morbid Obesity.
