This is the mind-blowing point of it... his entire family doesn't give a shit about it, and they're all normal-weighted or "only" overweight. He has a non-ham girlfriend who just lives with all this bullshit. She's not a feeder, as far as I can judge that, but fucking naive. The only offensive shitlording that happens is from elderly women at the supermarket, and he's furious about it. Also tried to lose weight, lost some intially (hence the story above), but didn't want to go from 5 oder 8 beers a night to 2, because standard of living. I think it's a lost cause and only a matter of time.
