Ht. 5'8", Start: 290 lb, Today: 307 lb, Goal: 170 lb - Ok so today I didnt gain but I didnt lose any weight either. I just wanted to write today to ask for some suggestions on how to help my friend Chris. If you remember the other day I posted that he told me he is a Gainer. Which I found out he gains weight on purpose to be fatter. I talked to him today about it and informed him of the health risks involved but he said he dosn't care. I dont know if he's joking or not, but he said he wants to get up to 1000 lbs. before he stops. He just turned 15 years old and he's the same height as me. He got on a scale today to show me his weight and he weighs 330 lbs. He said he's proud to be fat and he marched around outside and in the house all day without a shirt on. He even showed me a website he goes on that has kids from all over the country who wanted to gain weight. I think its called 43 things I want to do, and its under "Get Fat" I cant believe that someone would want to become Fat on purpose its like they dont care about themselves. I've known Chris since Kindergarden and he was really skinny until he was 13 and then his weight sky rocketed. Chris is a really good friend of mine and I dont like seeing him hurt himself. I was going to tell his parents what he is doing, but I dont know how to go about doing that. Can anyone give me suggestions? Thanks.
