When I first read the title of this I thought maybe you'd gotten on the scales.

The Sun that is 100% Tory, and I cant really stand sky news much, but I do like to see some of there Tory presenters squirm when they have read something about one of there Tory posh boy mates making a mess of our country

And Mr TarTak I weigh in at a moderate 11 and half stone

Old British weight measurement. One stone = 14 pounds, so 63 stone is 882 pounds.

Bossmark weighs 161 pounds.

A Stone is an old imperial weight measurement - 1 stone = 14 pounds or around 6.35 kilos - so she's 880ish pounds or 400 kilos

Yup, guy weighed in at 1200 lbs, 85 stone, 540 kg, or 7.5 bossmarks.

Go figure, his diabetes was out of control.

well, the man mustve been in the top 11 heaviest people in the world, because only 2 people have weighed in over 1200 pounds.

Source?

I personally know of patients around that weight. Only handled one myself though. I wold think HIPPAA would prevent total reporting of these stats too.

I used to be that way, a very long time ago.

I watched a show about obese people and one fella's niece had laid out on a big table what this guy would eat in a day. I guess the idea was to shock and/or shame him out of his outrageous eating habits. Huge miss on her part. They show him this table and he promptly dives in. Tell you, a pretty gross sight watching him stuff his face. Now this was what he usually eats in a day and he's trying to chow it all down in one sitting. Finally realized it was too much and he sure looked disappointed with himself for not being up to the challenge. I don't know how much it cost per day to feed this guy but it's certainly more then I could afford working 6 days a week at a pretty decent wage.
