It's a creative defence.

Send Jabba to the Pea farm and let him chop cotton for a few years. That will slim him down.

Jail is an excellent place for him. They can control his food intake and FORCE him to lose weight.

He'll only be that fat for a while. Domino's doesn't deliver to cellblocks.

You know, it occurs to me that if he'd smoked it instead of selling it, he wouldn't weigh almost six bills right now.

If he's 574 lbs I guess it's safe to say that he wasn't much of a user.

How was he able to get out of the house to go to the mail box or the post office?
