Whom seems to be eating themselves to death?

wow maybe you should just talk to the person.. It would be hard but if its really a problem and you are concerned you need to talk to them, I once watched a program on tv about a man who was like 500 pounds, and he ate like more food then i do in a week, it was so sad because he couldnt hardley do anything for himself, at the end of the program he stated that he wished there would have been some one there to tell him no, to fight with him and make him atleast try... even if he got mad... A true friend is someone who isnt afraid to see you for you even with flaws...You just need to talk to this person....


Good luck

Tell them you love them and would like to keep them around awhile.

And tell them healthwise...

your concerned.

tried. wont listen.

Sad thing is... when we first started hanging out they were REALLY fit and active. we'd walk around the city every week. Once a week they would go kyaking and rock wall climbing... now they sit on the computer all the time and eat, eat eat.

thats sad...i dont know what else you could do other then talk to them....maybe you could remind them of who they used to be, maybe show some pictures of when they were thin... I dont know...

replace the food he has and put in healthy no calorie food back in the house. Then he can eat all day long if he wants.

Carrots, celery, low fat yoghurt, grapes, oranges, etc. etc. etc.

Do they want to turn things around? If so i have the answer.....

Did something significant happen in this person's life to change the way they were? It could be depression. If so, try to get them talking about it. Other than that, all you can really do is impress upon them you care for them and you're concerned. It's on them to get up outta that chair and make the changes.

he stoped taking X and started playing online games. now he barley leaves the house. *sigh*

Dones't he work or go to school...something??!! Who is supporting him, enabling to sit at the computer all day? He needs something to distract him from the X and the on-line games. He may need some professional help, but again, if he does not want to change you can't make him, but if you or anyone else is enabling him to change nothing, ya need to stop.
