In March, 2010, I wrote the article Donna Simpson, The definition of an unfit parent from the eyes of a Social Worker. I wrote “Donna Simpson is only 42. She has her whole life ahead of her. She now weighs 602 pounds and wants to become the fattest woman in the world- 1,000 pounds. In order to do that she has to eat 12,000 calories a day.”
Ms. Simpson, now 44, was paid $19.00 a month for people to watch her eat. It seems there is a fantasy-fetish community that loves the overweight and the feeding that leads to it. She received money for strangers to buy food!
" Fat fetishism is the strong or exclusive sexual attraction to overweight or obese people. As well as traditional attraction, the topic also incorporates feederism and gaining, where sexual gratification is obtained via the process of gaining body fat. Fat fetishism also incorporates stuffing and padding, whereas the focus of arousal is on the sensations and properties of a real or simulated gain." wikipedia
Donna's New Year’s Resolution was to move on. She has replaced the videos she pre-recorded with a blog about her journey to health. She already has lost about 85 pounds, and she hopes to join a gym soon to begin walking in a pool. She has changed her eating, as well.
"I realized that I was their fantasy," she said. "Here I was getting bigger and bigger, and they had their thin wives, with 2 1/2 kids and a picket fence. I'm not trying to be a size 4," she said. "I'm not trying to be a thin-mint. I just want to be normal and more active. She has struggled to lose weight on and off for years. She weighed about 200 pounds when she attended high school. source
Donna has moved on both physically (She moved from New Jersey to Ohio.) and mentally, which has already made her a better parent.
