An obese mother in the US is trying to put on weight in order to become the world's fattest woman.
Donna Simpson, from New Jersey, weighs 273kg but told the Daily Mail newspaper she had her heart set on reaching her goal weight of 1000lb (450kg) in two years.
The 42-year-old already holds the title of the world's fattest mother after giving birth to her daughter in 2007 when she weighed 241kg.
"I'd love to be 1000lb ... it might be hard though, running after my daughter keeps my weight down," Ms Simpson told the Daily Mail.
Ms Simpson, who needs a mobility scooter to go shopping, eats huge amounts of junk food each week and tries to move as little as possible so she doesn't burn off as many calories.

Normally I disapprove of government interference with parental authority, but in this case, I think the daughter needs to be either handed over to relatives or removed from the home completely.
This woman is obviously unsuited to be a parent.
Evidently we are alone in that opinion, from the article
“In order to pay for the enormous amounts of food she is eating — her weekly grocery bill is $815 — Ms Simpson makes money by running a website where men pay to watch her consume fast food.”
I was thinking something close to that.

At least she's got an entrepreneurial spirit!
I’d guess she’s doing it to drive traffic to her website but it is pretty sad. I’d agree with you about the daughter as well.
Well at least I’ll eat less this morning after reading this article, so some good has come of it.
Shortly thereafter (if she ever attains the 1000 lb mark), she would be very dead. The human heart was just not designed to handle that vast quantity of blubber.
I feel thinner already.;-)
I disagree. Weighing the options (har har) I’d say one screwed up kid is better than the gubmint interfering with parents at large (har har)over their health.
She is not content with dumbest?
well.... after swallowing the little bit of vomit that rose up in my mouth I can be grateful it wasn’t a HT pic.

Ew.
Where the hell do you buy shorts that size?
ok now I’m gonna have to get a bunch of posts. Everytime I open my pings that picture comes up.
Here’s one
Well, if Obamacare is passed, we'll be paying for her medical bills.
I read somewhere that it took a team of 30 to deliver her little girl.
