Sept. 6, 2006, 1:38 p.m.are they going to do the gastric bypass thing on him? people who have that surgery usually have problems afterwards because they can only eat a few tablespoons of food and cant get the nutrients they need from it. he will also need surgery to remove all of his excess fat and skin. oh, and i dont buy the comment about it being hormonal either. hormones did not cause him to get THAT big. no way. i would like to know who is paying for this surgery???

Sept. 6, 2006, 9:23 p.m.Uh starving him wouldn't work. If you eat less or no food, your metabolism slows and so if and when he returns to eating normal portions, he will balloon to a bigger weight. Like weightlifters do, he should eat 4-5 smaller meals a day, every couple of hours.

Sept. 7, 2006, 2:24 a.m.This guys just a little chunkier than most Mexicans in LA ;), He's a little hard to look at, sort of a Barnam and Bailey candidate.
In all fairness he could have a serious medical condition that makes him overeat.
It seems that everytime I go to the mall I see more and more enormously heavy people; all diving into the supersized Big Macs, Fries and Cokes. Every once and a while they come up for air. It's humorous to see fat people eating supersized Mac's and fries, then ordering a diet coke.
America has got a huge addiction to fat, sugar and salt. I just can't understand how people can eat that crap.

Sept. 8, 2006, 2:15 p.m.worker: i said I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW WHO IS PAYING FOR IT, which does not mean that i actually CARE about who is paying for it. i assume he is not paying for it. and the fact that it is being performed in italy vs the usa isnt the issue either. like i said, i assume he is not paying for it and i dont think its really fair that some people can get free healthcare when others who might need it cannot get it. also, i just saw some show recently about a woman who was half this guys size who spent her life savings to have gastric bypass and liposuction. just doesnt seem fair.
