This topic really hits close to home, my moms cousin went thru the same exact shit, but he was like 5'6 and weighed (just estimating) about 400 to 450. He started to get the gout real bad, and went to the doctor to get an MRI, but they said the machine was too narrow, and they sent him to the Fort Worth Zoo, to the MRI machine that the hippos go on.
I never understood why he was that fat cause all he ever seemed to do is drink cold beer all day. He spent the night one time cause he was down on his luck. I remember the day before he came over we bought a half gallon of banana split flavored ice cream.
I went in the kitchen the next morning to grab some breakfast, and seen that same container of ice cream, totally eaten, with only a few paltry banana slices and a spoon left at the bottom, the son of a bitch ate the whole goddamn tub of ice cream.
He was a binge eater.
