She was a circus fat lady at 588 lbs. Barely My 600 Pound Life status, which never runs out of fats to showcase. Can probably see people around , close to, or even over that weight at quite  a few Whalemarts, on or off motorized scooters.  OTOH, look at Mayra Rosales. From 1036 lbs at only 5' 3" (my height) to 154 lbs. From a BMI of 187.1 to a BMI of 27.3. Still overweight, but damn, she shows that people CAN lose weight if they make an actual goddamn effort. And she has only to lose 14 more pounds, and she'll officially be of a normal BMI
