NJ Woman Attempting to Become World’s Fattest Lady
Dream big!
A New Jersey woman, who now tips the scales at 604 pounds, said it’d be a “fantasy” to gobble her way to fame and someday weigh 1,000 pounds.
“When you have a 3-year-old daughter and you’re trying to run a household, things like this tend to be a fantasy,” Simpson told The Post today.
The 42-year-old Old Bridge resident insists she has no realistic hopes of ever making 1,000 pounds, but will try her best to consume, wolf, munch and devour her way to hog heaven.
In her “fantasy,” Simpson would zoom up to 1,000 in two years with a steady diet of 12,000 calories per day. An average woman should consume no more than 2,000.
“My favorite food is sushi, but unlike others I can sit and eat 70 big pieces of sushi in one go,” she told London’s Daily Mail. “I do love cakes and sweet things, doughnuts are my favorite.”
To help pick up the tab on her $750-a-week eating habit, Simpson puts herself on the Internet where people can pay to watch her eat.
“I love eating and people love watching me eat,” she told the British newspaper. “It makes people happy, and I’m not harming anyone.”
Apparently she can’t walk more than 20 feet before needing to sit down, and uses a motorized scooter to get around, but insists she’s “healthy.”
The real tragedy has nothing to do with aesthetics: she’s a prisoner in her own body, and evidently prefers it that way. The people encouraging her in this are just as much to blame: feederism is pathological at best, and abusive at worst.

i was wondering if you saw this article. this “woman” is an idiot. i kind of wonder if the article was legit. a lot of sites covered it but it just seems too odd to be true. i have trouble putting down 3000 cals/day and working out to maintain it. and yet this moron says she eats 12000 cals/day. nobody has ever gotten to 1000 lbs and said yes, this is great. if there ever was a reason to disconnect somebody from the internet, this is it.

I first saw this on MSNBC – and there are several other print articles/interviews… so the woman is probably real enough, although it’s entirely possible that she’s simply saying outrageous things and inflating the calorie count for media attention… and to drive traffic to her web site (one BBR member evidently took a look).

Elissa, this is terrible!

Absolutely incredibly stupid. I can’t believe any one in their right mind would want to do that. If I could’nt walk 20 feet before I got tired because I was that out of shape, I would hope someone would shot me and put me out of my misery. Thats what it would be, complete misery.
Then to think she wants to get bigger!!!! It bothers me to see people in those motorized carts in the grocery store for no other reason than they are to heavy to walk that far.
She is surely not a roll model for any generation!!!!

well makster, i am afraid she is a roll model. the only way to get her out of the house after she dies is to roll her a$$ out.
