A New Jersey woman who hopes to become the fattest woman in world got 30,000 calories closer to her 1,000lb goal with a festive feast that could have fed dozens of revelers.
46-stone Donna Simpson, sitting in a reinforced metal chair, chowed down on the world's biggest Christmas dinner as she ate for two straight hours on Saturday.
The single mum-of-two tucked into two 25lb turkeys, two maple-glazed hams, 15lbs of potatoes (10lbs roast, 5lbs mashed), five loaves of bread, five pounds of herb stuffing, four pints of gravy, four pints of cranberry dressing and an astonishing 20lbs of vegetables.
After polishing off her enormous main course, she still had room for dessert and ate a 'salad' made of marshmallow, cream cheese, whipped cream and cookies.
Donna's two children, Devin, 14, and Jacqueline, three, enjoyed a more modest feast.
The 5'2 Donna defended her £150 meal, saying, 'I eat as much as I want, whenever I want but at this time of year I really go all out.
'Christmas should give you carte blanche to do whatever you want.'
Donna, who insists she is healthy, told the Sunday Mirror, 'People who feel guilty about eating are hilarious.'

From another UK newspaper:
http://www.mirror.co.uk/news/top-stories/2010/12/26/feeling-stuffed-this-is-what-46-st-fattest-woman-in-the-world-ate-for-christmas-115875-22808062/
Donna, a single mum of two, has made a full-time career out of her size with public appearances and websites. She is even trying to GAIN weight to break new records. She already weighs the equivalent of two baby elephants with a 100ins waist, 78ins chest and a 56E bra size. She insists she is healthy, although she needs a mobility scooter to go shopping.
She spends up to £500 a week on food and gets through 12,000 calories a day - the healthy recommendation for women is just 2,000. Donna is proud that her blood pressure is "normal" but her doctor has warned that she will die if she continues her quest and she has dangerously high cholesterol levels.
She cannot walk more than 30ft at a time or stand for more than five minutes. She wheezed and appeared out of breath all through our interview.
It normally bothers me when someone makes fun of someone else for being fat, but this woman is mentally disturbed.
Incredible, ...and here I was feeling guilty and bloated over eating 2000 calories.
What’s odd is to realize that there’s a normal skeleton in there. I try to imagine the contortions it undergoes.
>>>What does “tucked into” mean?
British for “unnaturally gorged herself”??
As long as she’s not on the dole, i got no problem with her doing this. It’s her life.
Yep, gonna have to call BS on this story.
Adding the amounts up I got over 110lbs of food.
I’m going to go out on a limb here and say that it is utterly impossible for a human to eat well over 100lbs of anything in two hours.
The story is exaggerated nonsense.
I don’t believe she can eat that much food as stated in the article. I think she can eat a lot, but I don’t see how what they stated is humanly possible at one sitting.
I eat as much as I want when I want, too. But, my body tells me, “Stop!” or I’ll feel sick.
While Simpson is by no means the only obese woman who claims to like being fat (a whole supersized subculture exists), her case is representative of other groups, toothose who suffer with addictions and those who suffer with severe obsessive-compulsive symptoms.
See, Donna Simpson isnt cute or funny or just different. She is psychiatrically disordered. She is addicted to food the way some people are addicted to heroin.

In that article also:
Jacqueline was born when Donna weighed 38 stone in a dangerous delivery that required THIRTY doctors.
really misses the whole point about it doesn't she?
at least she eats her veggies
How can she even afford that?
I found the answer.
What goes in must come out...
100 lbs of food give or take? How much toilet paper does she go through?
Not that I’m convinced eating this much in one sitting is possible.
Ugh.
That’s disgusting, this woman is mentally sick. Wonder if she holds down a job or if this is government sponsored suicide?
How many want to bet she has missed the target hole more than once doing her “sit down”.
And don't you love how the Brits have a way with words:
When she was 27, Donna weighed 25 stone, and fell pregnant with her eldest son, Devin. Her marriage ended soon after and she turned to food for comfort.
Also, as usual, there is not mention of who pays for her massive food bills and obvious medical care... a team of 30 for her c-section birth? Dang. I guarantee a special bed/surgical table was necessary as well.
Wonder what party she votes for...
That really her ? She looks about 480
pounds versus a Grand !
Did she star in awesomeus maximumus ?
“Pictures please!”
