80 days and he only lost 20 pounds?
no sympathy here.
20lbs in 80 days isn’t really great. Either he gets some bariatric surgery or he isn’t going to be around much longer.
Sometimes it seems humans are nothing more than an amalgam of neurosis and addictions.
No,you're just a fat tub of lard spending too much time at the bakery and not enough on a treadmill.
rides in the back of an SUV while his father drives the roads
How about he follows behind the SUV?
Enablers who shop, cook & feed him contribute to this “disease.” Self control.
Now he rides in the back of an SUV while his father drives the roads of Rhode Island, looking for someone who can help.you found a place but you blew it
Assanti's father says taking his son home will be a death sentence, because he'll just fall back into the habits of lying in bed and eating. So the two men say they will continue to drive around until they can find a place to help.
listen stooopid, QUIT FEEDING HIS FAT AZZ and he'll lose weight!!!
no pity for the lazy...
OK. Fine. I can buy that. Perhaps he has an eating addiction the same way some people have a drug or alcohol addiction and he needs help to stop. But if you go to a drug or alcohol rehab and they catch you drinking or using, you get kicked out. So I'm not sure why there should be special rules for him.
Zombie apocalypse rule #1, cardio.
come on people... it WAS a thin crust pizza...
give the guy a break.
sheesh.
80 days in the hospital - at taxpayer expense?
Maybe the guy (and his family) wanted the 5 minute national attention/sensation. Speaks ill of the general mental illness of our current culture.
Take him out to a cabin in the wilderness. Leave him there with water. Once a day, stop off and deliver a high-protein meal, some fruit, and some veggies.
I am not very sympathetic toward these grossly fat people. They lay in bed all day and SOMEONE has to bring them food and do other nasty chores for them that I won’t mention. Whoever that person is they are just as sick as the fat one.

That’s a heck of a plan....!
Betcha dad ordered the pizza or at least paid for it....
Well, I think it’s safe to say that society has finally licked the hunger problem.
Well, surely he could find a public restroom that is big enough...
No, that's bad...I shouldn't be saying such stuff.
But the thought has crossed my mind about what persons of such a massive size do.
I mean, the simple act of reaching around to wipe...okay, I'm done.
I hope the guy is okay.
Really.
Even though his problem is of his own making, I still wouldn't wish it on anyone.
If I gain two pounds above my usual 220, I'm miserable.
But on the other hand, if I go below 210, I'm constantly hungry...but not to the point of eating up to 800+ pounds.
Call on the one(s) who aided and abetted while you were putting on that extra 600 pounds.
There came a point in time (and weight) that you were not doing it all on your own. Someone else was filling the trough on a regular basis.
Does you dad live in the SUV too? Move in with him. Likely, he was one of the aiders/abetters who made sure you got fed as you put on the extra pounds.
well, what are ya gonna do?
