Too Fat For My 600lb life | The MOST Tragic Episode

The least you could do is FOLLOW mini Michelle on her 💥 NEW💥 IG since she ain’t eating paid! 👉🏽 instagram.com/mini_michelle90?igsh=anlzMXB4cmM2dnV5&

I don’t really use IG anymore (I still have one account but only rarely go on). If Mini Michelle ever gets her own YT channel, I’ll sub on my @cherishedplaytime channel which is my doll/plushie/toy channel.

[@normajeanmcdaniel4491]

0:39 @Michellemcd543 😮 As a melanin-challenged chick, I feel it is MY responsibility to tell you I'm concerned about Barbie-Blacksploitation and your opening comments toward mini-Michelle. 😢 Many of my friends are Black Barbies who are underpaid, undervalued, and unionizing behind the scenes. So, my fellow McDaniel chick? I'm watching 👀 you. Treat your ppl right! I can't believe you're pampering yourself right in front of mini-Michelle.😢 I'm not a lawyer, but this injustice has inspired me to go to law school. As a cynical Gen-Xer, I know I'll never have time to pay off the Student Loans, but I just need to see justice for mini-Michelle. Especially bc she's a fellow McD chick! How could you?!?😢😫 I kill me! 🤣😜 I'm here all week. Can we get a round of applause for your servers tonight? No need to DUI. The hostess will happily call u an Uber or taxi if you're fancy. I'll be selling cassette tapes after the show (don't judge me; I hv no production staff, nor budget). Come by and say "hi!" Except you, fellow Ms. McDaniel. Your name's not on the list. But mini-Michelle is welcome. 😂 Well, I have law schools to apply to at age 50. It's gonna take some time for me to pass the Bar, but in a few yrs, I'm coming for you...🤨😉👋 -🌴 just me in Palm Springs 🌴 P.S. Laugh w me: IRL story. I'm so White, I'm "off-blue." My BFF is a Black chick who needs zero makeup. I need artificial color. At the MAC counter to buy the only foundation that doesn't turn me orange. Friend's bored. Til this happened... Me: I need (foundation color). Cute hispanic gay dude/MAC: Oh, honey! You're wearing the wrong color. It's far too light. That's why u look so pale! I mean... fair. Me: I've been wearing this shade for 15 yrs. Trust a White Chick. MAC Guy: Can I just show you the difference? I think you'll see... (disappears to get me "the right color") Me (to friend): Sorry. This happens a lot. Now we hv to let this nice guy turn me orange before he'll go get the color I originally asked for. Friend: White Chick problems?😂 MAC guy: (He comes back w a shade darker than mine; puts it on my jawline and did this): 😮 Me: See? I'm orange. Please get my shade? MAC: I'm so sorry! I've never sold that shade before! You do know that's our lightest shade... (pauses) Me: Go on... MAC: Well, we hv a special edition shade for Kabuki theater, and your shade is one up from that. BFF loses it. Just 🤣🤣🤣's. And she's a highly regarded attorney, so she usually can keep a poker face.😐 To this day, she asks if I need to touch up my Kabuki face before we go eat. 😂 PPS Screw law school. I'll just show BFF these discriminatory opening comments, and I'm sure she'll want the case...😂 Love your stuff. Gonna go actually watch now. Hope u see this Wall O' Text I built just for you and the Almighty Algorithm. Dedicated to mini-Michelle ❤. Kabuki +1 out. 👋😁

They sit there and say eating healthy is expensive while simultaneously eating enough to feed a family of 5 everyday. There’s no way you can’t afford healthy food

[@Just-Nikki]

That boggles my mind. Meal prep a big ole salad and grill some chicken. That’s lunch for a few days. Make a frittata with lots of veggies, that’s breakfast for a few days, make some meatballs and zucchini noodles, that’s dinner for a few days. Buy chick peas and tahini and make hummus for a snack and slice some veggies. Then when that’s getting low, meal prep a few more days worth of food. I can feed myself and my 6’2, 200 lb husband for around $100 a week and I buy exceptional quality food. I buy 85% locally grown and sourced food and I don’t purchase convenience foods. Ingredients aren’t expensive, convenience foods are. I found that if I bought a box of cereal, my husband could eat that in 2 days just because it was here, so I don’t buy it and he snacks on whatever I made for us to snack on.

[@ninaasf-ck]

Right? That's always my first thought, like how are these people affording this??

[@SHOUPEATSSOUP]

I hate it- they talk about the “privilege of healthy eating” as if they can’t afford that food too, or like oats, rice, beans, etc aren’t cheap AF? I live on a budget bc I have to and I live off of fruits, veg, beans, rice, oats, etc - i eat what I can afford and it sure as hell isn’t fast food every day

Can i brag here? After 10 years of depression, anxiety and +24kgs later, I decided to go to a gym, with a trainer. It's been two weeks, I feel amazing, I have more energy than when I did when I was 24, anxiety is much lower, I want to do things! Every day. It's an amazing feeling. 1500kcal a day, gym twice a week, on other days bike or swimming pool. I already lost 2.5kgs It was hard to finally get to doing all this, but it's more than worth it. Thank you Michelle, you were one of the factors that made me get my sh!t together! If I could start taking care of myself, anyone can! Lots of love to everyone reading this ❤ Edit 1 (more to come with updates;p): I have never experienced so much positive vibes, so much encouragement and support, so many kind words on the internet before. I would like to thank you, amazing strangers ♥️, each and every one of you from the bottom of my heart, for all the comments below. You are truly wonderful people, with beautiful hearts. I'm not gonna lie, my eyes started sweating from the overwhelming amount of support. Thank you once again, you are the best!♥️ Edit2: It's gonna be a quick one, from the moment I've started going to the gym, eating 1500kcals per day, and living more actively the stats are as per below: Chest: 117cm (-5cm) Belly: 105.5cm (-1.5cm) Arm: 32cm (-1cm) Hips: 104.5cm (-1.5cm) Thigh: 56cm (-3cm) Calf: 38.5 (-1.5cm) I couldn't be happier;)

[@lucietigger1641]

Go you! I have multiple mental health issues and I do find the physical activity every day really helps, be that gym, running, just going out and getting the steps in. I also had a personal trainer at the start of my health journey and it gave me that reason to go to the gym, and reassurance having someone there who could explain what to do. Glad that you are already feeling the benefits, and it only gets better I promise!

[@fergieingrid2521]

So proud of you. I also put on a lllooottt of weight lately and even going to the gym didn't seem to make a difference, then I started eating less and go to the gym 4 times a week and I can see my waist being more defined and my abs starting to appear. Lost about 3kgs but I can see muscles forming so the number on the scale isn't my priority as of now. Keep going we can so it. 💪🏽

As an incurable cancer patient, ask me what I would do to be cured, or what I can do to extend my life, and I would do it. The fact that he is literally about to die, yet he still has a chance to live, but doesn’t want to do what the doctor is telling him, is just mind boggling, and honestly, frustrates and angers me to no end. And don’t get me started on his mother. . .

[@Maria-uv9pd]

I believe his obesity was the cause of his lack of will to live. Weighing almost 1000lb at 26 years old, he must have been very large as a kid. Before he ever really experienced life, his world view had narrowed to a room or two, entertainment devices, and highly processed food. That was all he knew, and how appealing is an isolated, painful future. What's so infuriating is that it didn't have to be that way.

[@nerdycurls6253]

I don't think he ever got to experience life and mature beyond a child's thought process. In his situation another person needed to force his health, unfortunately his own mother did this to him.

Sean’s story was so dark and depressing. His mother died suddenly, and his goal was not to live independently, but get into a nursing home. Right before he died, his life was basically just being slumped naked in a chair all day, never bathing, only getting up for pizza delivery with a blanket clutched in front of him. He died from complications stemming from a bad skin infection after numerous warnings from Dr. Now, so it was more the case that Sean just gave up on life. Really tragic. Also tragic that Mommy Dearest didn’t live to reap what she sowed.

Yes he is an adult now, but he has been literary raised into this condition since childhood. You can say he himself didnt do enough but his mom molded him into that since he was a kid.

The thing is that Fat acceptance people would probably say "that's an extreme case" but these people on my 600LB life were once just 200 pounds over weight, they were once just eating 2 cheese burgers a day. It escalates! It gets out of control and quickly! That's the cautionary tale this show is trying to tell. We've seen some fat acceptance members gain significant weight and even die from complications. It's so sad. We're not being hateful. It drives me crazy when fat people say "you don't actually care about our health" I can't speak for everyone but I can speak for me and I DO care about people's health and quality of life.

Some of us were never really healthy weight to begin with. Other people use food for other things and just grow used to it (it's easier in each individual moment to deal with it even if it'd be easier overall to fix it, especially when it's a coping mechanism causing it). People just incorporate new aches and pains into their normal, often only getting a wake up when they don't experience it for a brief moment. For context: I've never been in that large, but I was where I could drop half my weight and just get into the officially healthy range.

I think one argument, which seems to be lost in all overeating shows/vids is how poor nutrition influences the brain and mood. Our thinking machine needs proper food and starving it of good stuff, while overdoing the bad one, is terryfying. I wonder how many people overlook their diet as a reason for mood swings and depression.

[@TheBigMe0w]

Absolutely! What you eat influences gut bacteria (which ones you have and what they/you crave), hormones, energy levels, sleep. That's why it's so tricky! And also why many people are convinced they just genetically crave different foods than others when much comes down to your diet of the past weeks, months, years. Sadly, what you eat also is reflected in your taste buds. Once you stop eating sugar for a few months, you'll notice how bad most candy tastes for example and you now appreciate the natural subtle nuances of veggies, that you could hardly taste before. It's crazy

[@existentialgamer9206]

Yes we don’t talk enough about how the emotional fragility, helplessness and immaturity you see is probably caused by the processed, highly addictive foods. And most of these folks have been obese most their lives

A person who habitually misuses drugs but also brushes their teeth and eats an appropriate amount does not mean they should be considered healthy.

Not healthy activity is healthy for morbidly obese people though like lifting, running, jumping... Best is standing up regularly, walking and activity within water like swimming.

I feel that. I have an obese narcissistic mother as well. My mother is working towards becoming morbidly obese. I never had to bathe her. Give it another decade or two and her hips give out like her mother's did and she'll need the help. I don't think she starved me on purpose. I think that was just a consequence of being poor. I would sneak and hide food for later as often as I dared. And I wouldn't miss a chance to eat. If food was offered it was taken happily. She would make me feel so gross for being naturally thin. Comments about my clothes and hobbies. She always wanted me to wear skinny jeans and tight shirts so she could live vicariously through me. Her exact words once were, "If I had a body like yours, I'd wear skinny jeans and leggings all the time." I don't care for them. I sit on my feet so the denim cuts into my skin. She wanted me to be a cheerleader because that's what she would of done if she was thin in middle and high school. Nevermind I didn't have the interest. Nor did we have the money so it was a short lived delusion. Yet she'll look me in the eyes and tell me she never did anything to tear my sister and I down. Narcissistic moms are the worst. I can't wait for my baby brother to grow up and realize she sucks, so I can cut contact. I hope you can get away from your mother as well. I empathize with your plight.

Last week, I was eating at a frozen yogurt place and this family came in. The father and mother were fit, and they had big muscles; on another hand the child, about 5 years old, was the biggest 5 year old I had ever seen. It just pisses me off that parents give kids whatever they want just because they don’t want to hear their whining and tantrums. It’s literally a part of parenting that everyone should learn to deal with. My parents always controlled what I ate and had a treat every once in a while, I turned out the perfect weight. How is this not seen as a form of neglect? CPS should be on their ass.

[@sydney6268]

Tbf, if they were muscular, they probably tend to hold body fat as well but weight lift. They probably eat a similar diet to their kid, it's just being stored as fat instead of muscle. I've seen a lot of fit people who don't eat a very nutritious diet. Though I agree that too many parents are lazy with what they feed their kid. My toddler eats healthier than I do and why would I even introduce him to things like sweets and fried chicken if I don't want him eating those things

[@skuggensdam13]

Being obese isn't healthy. I've been struggling with my weight my entire life. It took having a heart attack last fall then being stuck in a hospital for 4 months for me to accept that your weight is not a game.

[@randomrandom450]

One thing that is not talked enough in those shows is how everybody around those people are ALSO very overweight, but because there's one that is worse that everybody, they feel like they are not that bad, but get them alone and it's pretty clear that everybody in there have a problem and they are influencing each other in those bad habits.

[@kashigata]

One of the greatest gifts my parents gave me was to model great behaviour when it came to listening to doctors. They provided a perfect example of this in many ways. For example, when my dad had a heart health crisis and was told to change the way he ate, he immediately changed his diet. The first day he was out of the hospital he changed everything about the food he consumed and mum changed, too. Told to exercise more. They did it. What is the point of paying for advice and then ignoring it. Lunacy to do that!

Like fatphobia was ever a valid word to begin with, but hey, let those plonkers bounce around the fields of delusion all they want. Wii Sports could have been a more intuitive way to focus, and motivate his mind beyond just food. But unfortunately, people just don't care enough to try. Fat Acceptance is, and always will be, a death cult.

​@@ebthegt5572 Well said, I completely agree. It's so sad as they're indoctrinating so many young (mainly) women. An obvious case of misery loves company.

These parents should be charged with child abuse.

OMG the foot dragging was horrific. What an awful, tragic, heartbreaking situation.

[@Aging_Casually_Late_Gamer]

These people are exactly why we need to tell people no and have tougher limits on who can and cant be on SS/disability

I’ve been trying for 3 years to get on disability, for my genetic conditions I’ve had my entire life. I’d say it’s pretty tough, but not helped by people disabling themselves like this

[@tarotgirl315]

Exactly! I've been battling for 5 years with 11 specialists letters of proclamation for my inability to work. I have mental health, autoimmune and spinal issues that really limit my quality of life and they basically said if I was heavier I could get it for obesity. Im like......😑😑😑😑😑

[@cheekyrabbit]

I have a terminal disease from medical malpractice, had to fight tooth and nail to prove I was disabled. And then you see people who've made themselves disabled because of addiction... And you want to be angry about it, they have no control because addiction. That logic however spits in the face of every person who is in recovery and resisting their addictions to be their form of sober.

Michelle with your videos I’ve seen that calorie counting is just a tool and not something to fear like I’ve been told for years now, and with using it to create a healthy deficit for myself I’ve already gone down 5 pounds in two weeks and am on track to be no longer considered obese by the end of the year. If not for your influence this would’ve taken me much longer and maybe not even happened, thank you so much for the content you make!

[@maeve3007]

I am so happy for you. You can do it! A healthy life is fun life. 😊

"Fatphobia kills" has the same energy as "aLcOhOLpHoBiA KILLS".

My beer belly is beautiful 😂

The craziest part about this kid is the fact that he could’ve just stop eating because he was so big the body would’ve ate the fat on his body instead, at 1000 pounds, it’s legit impossible to starve to death

[@probablyacabbageisuppose1711]

Mini Michelle having a mini meltdown 😂

[@Emilygregoire9]

I just had a baby on Saturday and I could barely wipe my own ass from the 35 pounds I gained. I could not even fathom having to live like this.

[@EveningSoother]

He was more than 8 times my current weight. I'm trying to visualise 8 of me squeezed all together to make 1 of him and it's a nightmarish mental picture. Poor fella.

[@tkatrich3]

Kind of feel bad for him starting to stand up. How many of us could stand up with an extra 750lbs on our back.

[@beccasknittingcorner943]

Hey Michelle, I want to say thank you for helping me with my weight loss. Currently I’m down 50 pounds from my highest weight. I’ve been trying to exercise every day and improve my diet. I’m also beginning to participate in OA meetings to help with my weight loss too. You and multiple others have helped me go to the right track. I’m so grateful for you and all you do with the no BS.

[@JaniceSeagraves]

The mom was literally killing her son with kindness.

[@bre6651]

😂😂😂😂

[@jessamieweber]

In my opinion, she wasn't a kind woman. She was a weak woman who never said NO to her son. She literally stuffed him like a Christmas goose and ended him.

[@DoritoBot9000]

That wasn’t kindness, but codependency and selfishness.
