How is she hiding herself from the world? That was a movie role. If you were like her, in a world as cruel as this one, you couldn't done what she has.

she's a hero because she is fat and was in a movie? you do realize she took this role because they were looking for someone morbidly obese and paid her a buttload of money, right? if you guys can help me put on about 330 pounds and get me into a movie then i can be an inspirational hero too!!!!
give me a break. i dont know her circumstances, but heros generally dont let themselves get to 500 pounds. respond back when she has LOST the weight and then i will say THAT is inspirational.

This woman is not a hero.
She's the size of a whale, and she's still alive.
So what?
Maybe she's just lucky.
Not a hero.
Maybe if she LOST 500 pounds, well then she'd be a hero.
I don't understand the point of this topic.
People in this day and age are completely ridiculous

She lives her life under extraordinary circumstances cause she has no other choice. It's not like the weight is going to drop off at any given moment. It's like people saying cancer survivors are brave, beep that. I'm a cancer survivor myself so I can say it I'm not brave I had no choice. Not having a choice and having to face something doesn't make you brave it makes you a victim of circumstance.

I know that's what he/she says, I can read. And still I don't agree. I use my own thoughts and experiences and not theory's from magazines, how reliable those magazines might be.
I think that scientist aren't exactly clear about this particulair subject because I've read articles and spoken to professionals who suggested to me that obesity isn't always your own fault. -

Why is she a hero? She hasn't done anything special besides being extremelly overweight? Is that your inspiration? To be fat and not care? Anybody can be a hero if she or he puts on 300 lbs by the way you think. So please don't use the word "hero" meaninglessly:)

I never called her a hero. I said that she was a great person for appearing in this movie because she looks the way that she does. She had to have realized that many people (jerks) would laugh at her when they saw her. I wish I didn't care about what other people thought about my appearance.

But morbid obesity is a desease. I think people need to realize that eating can be an addiction, just like alcohol and drugs. Being this obese is a symptone of some bigger thing that is wrong with her mentally.
Nobody wants to be like she is. Just imagine yourself in her situation. The easiest thing to do would be to hide for the rest of the world but instead she shows herself. That is a brave thing to do and must have been really hard for her. Way to go!
By the way, she just had to be in What's Eating Gilbert Grape! Her ex-husband wrote the book and probably based that character on her.
