The Clothesline Diet Club Blog

I can't believe that anyone would want to gain weight for the sake of getting into the Guinness Book of World Records. Donna Simpson must really have a problem within herself. I believe, that she believes that there is no hope for her to lose weight, so instead she has decided to surrender to food and eat herself away to death. In reality, she definitely won't make it to her goal weight, because she will be dead beforehand. What is this woman thinking? What about her family? Doesn't she have a conscience of leaving her loved ones behind? What example is she setting for others and more importantly, what example is she setting for her beautiful little daughter?

Based on my own experience and no doubt Donna has had these thoughts too, food is your friend in the moment, but when the moment passes, you see food as the worst enemy and accuse it of destroying your life. There is no way, that Donna will be sleeping happily at night, but the sad truth is that she will be feeling that she can't turn back and continues with what she is doing and promotes herself doing it.

When I weighed in at nearly 300lbs I used to always think about being an embarrassment for my husband and children for the size that I was and I didn't want to be seen with them. I realised myself, that I needed to change my thinking and change what I was doing to myself, in order to turn my life around and furthermore, to be a better person for my own family. I truly believe that Donna Simpson needs to re-focus on reality and regain herself and realise that no one deserves to live like she is. She can be a so much better example to others, if she thought the opposite and started a journey of weight-loss, not weight gain. If she decided to change her life, the support she would receive would be amazing. In fact, I would do anything in my power to support her too.

Helen left a comment on Apr 26 Yes being over-weight can be crippling, in both mind and body. It's a never ending circle. A War that we can all win with the the right help and support. Karen is a wonderful inspiration and someone we can all look up to. Not only has she helped herself but through her kindness and caring for others, is helping them too. We only need to reach out and ask for help, admit we have a problem and want to change. It's so sad to see others caught up in such misery and even more so when they are being purposely so distructive to themselves. I too struggle with my weight and yes it gets me down. I don't want to be like this at all and it's hard to get motivated when the road seems so long. Still i'm trying, i've set a goal, however i don't know if i'll reach it in time. To all of you who are suffering Karen knows and understands, so reach-out for her support.

Tara Burner left a reply on May 8 I sa that video yesterday and was totally dumbfounded! She says she's "healthy", she has oxygen at night, can't walk 10 feet at a time. She apparently doesnt care about her children or want to be around to see them grow up, nor be a good example to them either. It's sad :(

Karen left a reply on May 13 @ Tara Burner I agree Tara. Thank you for your feedback. In the near future, I will reaching out to her in every way that I can, to hopefully open her eyes and also to offer her some support.

Karen left a reply on May 13 @ Helen Absolutely Helen. I want to be here for you and anybody else that needs help. Thank you so much for your kinds words and if there is anything else that I can help you with, by all means let me know.
