 I have read another article about this woman.  It is a shame. In that article she talks about how her bf loves bigger women and she is proud to do this for him. Her poor daughter... she is going to grow up so confused. The woman is an adult, she can do as she chooses but she is forcing this on her daughter whether intentional or not... how sad and heart breaking.

 A MAN IS NOT WORTH SUBJECTING YOURSELF TO THIS TORTURE.  she needs serious counseling, she is so insecure to be doing this.  child custody services need to take her daughter away is this is what she is training her daughter to do. that sounds cruel, but what about what her daughter is learning, it could kill her.  vick

 

EXPERIENCE WITHOUT REFLECTION IS HOLLOW

I had my opinion written and then got dropped mid posting.  I feel so sorry for the daughter, the poor eating and exercising habits that she is learning from observation.  Donna is going to become even more dependent on her family as her mobility becomes worse and worse and she is confined to bed due to her size.  The health issues..... I could go on and on, she is not worth my grief.  I am here for my own health and wellbeing.  Praying for Donna to have a great counsellor, see the errors in her thinking and the harm this is doing to her dayghter.

Use this article as a good point of all that we are here to do for ourselves.  Be kind to yourselves, treat food as fuel that it is intended to be.  Seek positive outlets for emotions.  Hugs

Ok...sorry folks, but I have to just come out with it on this one. Sick, irresponsible, and in need of emotional treatment big time.

She has set her sights on death and is putting her child through having to witness it day by day. For a man who isn't happy unless his woman is on death row health wise?

I'm sorry I am being so frank here, but just have to be... forgive me if I offended anyone.

I do have to agree with the rest that she is in need to help and she should never put her daughter through this. Lets take a step back tho shall we. We all have had our own different reasons that we got as big as we did correct. Granted I do not believe we intentionally decided to get big (obese morbid obese ) And I think it is safe to say that most of us had low self esteem at one time or another during that period shoot I know skinny people who have low self esteem.
She is a woman for some reason or another started getting obese then just wanted to be loved.  I remember my x he honestly thought no one would ever want me because I was so big. When I was leaving him and told him I had found some one else ( I hadn't but knew I needed to get out was killing me inside) it floored him. When I walked out that door in three days I went from 4 packs of smokes to half a pack in 11 months (while being pregnant yes did finally meet some one just the wrong one ) I had lost 147 pounds.
No I do not blame men I blame myself for allowing myself to get this way no one else put this weight on me.
Guess what I am trying to say we have all been there at one time or another.  She just chooses to announce it to the world she wants attention at no cost. It is sad and my heart does go out to that little girl. But I bet her daughter adores her and loves her with every ounce she has in her. I bet if she is taken away from her mother it would crush her because people will tell her that her mommy doesn't love her other wise she wouldn't have gotten so big. That would be shame and deep down I am sure mom wouldn't survive with out her baby girl. Like I said I am not condoning what she is doing but I can feel where she is at.

Very valid point, and thanks for sharing it.  Our self esteem can cause us t do odd things. Sorry about my harsh response... I usually try to be open minded and accepting . Just think Her daughters gonna have a broken heart.
