Helping People who are Over Weight

Today will be talking about some adults that are over weight.  Before when I was a lot  younger I thought that humans are over weight at 500 pounds.

I thought that people over 500 pounds would die because they were too heavy.  I didn't think people could survive or weigh more than 500 pounds.

However, I learned that there are people who weigh 900 pounds and even more on rare occasions.  I know people are 900 pounds and more because they eat a lot of food and do not work out.

Or they eat foods with a lot of calories in them.  On the health and weight lose shows like Biggest Loser, the gym couches often yell at over weight contestants.   One of the women on the show the Biggest Loser, Jillian Michaels, a fitness coach constantly yells at over weight participants.

There are other shows like "Extreme Makeover Weight Loss," that is similar to the Biggest Loser.  Similar shows on the Health Channel, are My 600 Pound Life, or My 600 pound mom.

On the show 600 Pound Mom, she ate a lot of food and yelled at her daughters, because they would not give her any more junk food.  She would hide the soda under her own bed on the show.

Then they showed the 600 pound mother a year later.  At the end of the show she actually died.  It made me cry a lot and yell.  It made me feel sad and disgusted because the 600 pound mother was hard headed and it cost her - her life.

Obviously, it's not easy to stop eating junk food when you continue to eat it although you know you could die or have serious health complications.  Being over weight is a serious health problem and issue.


In my opinion the waiters and the owners of restaurants should be concerned that people don't overeat.  If they see a person 900 pounds usually they just give them what they want to eat without regard to their health.

They should be more concerned about the well being of their customers and not just making money selling food.  A person's life is more important than making money.

If a person just eats fatty and unhealthy foods at a restaurant and dies or has to go to the hospital, it was very selfish for the restaurant waiters and owners to just let them overeat.  They again should care about the value of human life and not just money.

If waiters that work in the restaurant see that people are too heavy like 900 pounds they should try to convince them to not over eat. If they just give them lots of unhealthy food it shows that they are more concerned with making a lot of money (in their job) than people's well being.

In my own opinion if the manager or waiter was laughing at an overweight person then that is very rude.  But if the waiter or the owner is trying to be nice to the person and says "I do not want you to get sick" this shows they are very concerned about the person dying from eating to much unhealthy food.

Then the 900 pound person may still get very upset because they are used to eating a lot of food.  Or may be they should be more grateful for the concern and help.

Although other customers might say to the waiter that was very rude.  I feel that customers would be kind of rude to the waiter.  This is because the waiter is trying to help a person who is overweight.

Restaurants should change the rules on how they do business.  Just like when waiters become concerned when a person has had too much wine or alcohol to drink, they should also be concerned about how much food an overweight person eats especially if they're 900 pounds.

If a person is average size or weight they shouldn't be as concerned about what they eat as a person who is extremely overweight like 500 and more pounds.
