i wasn’t expecting this... 2/12/19

[L. Ron Hubbard's Cat]

You are 100% spot on, the general public sees it much, much differently than anorexia.
There is a video on YouTube of some football guy saying he developed binge eating disorder and the comments were like, can’t believe this is a thing, he needs to learn some discipline, just stop eating.
Pretty much anyone will develop binge eating if you went on a diet and restricted food, and now you eat the foods you can’t have for the day endlessly, so people just see it as a lack of will power instead of a disease.

To be 100% clear, though, not all fat people have BED. Those commenters aren't totally wrong -- if they were talking about your garden-variety chubster. The trouble is, the general public doesn't easily make the differentiation between someone who eats too much (and who might or might not also have some emotional problems) and someone with an actual eating disorder. Hell, a lot of experts probably struggle with that.

For the record, I'm not convinced AL has BED. In fact, I'm inclined to say she doesn't (though I'm admittedly not an expert). I was just responding to the question of why BED doesn't seem to be taken as seriously as anorexia or bulimia.

 

[Dog Prom 3D]

I'm very curious how some eating disorders get grant money, while others do not. Someone like Eugenia Cooney is just as fucked in the head, just on the opposite end of the spectrum. Is it because society deems one disorder to be more a product of laziness than another? It seems like both anorexia/bulimia and super-morbid obesity all have certain things in common, like poor coping mechanisms and a need for control.

Appreciate your posts.

I'm not sure why there aren't as many recovery opportunities for the super-morbidly obese as there are for severe anorexics but I can guess. The world almost universally worries more about the starving than the overfed, so if anyone was going to respond to a plea for donations they would be more likely to help a Eugenia more than they would an Amberlynn. The hell of it is is that Amberlynn may actually beat Eugenia and even Ashley to the grave.

I would also posit that severe obesity is a condition of poverty and lack of education and overall those who suffer from it to the degree Amber does don't have family members who have the funds to establish scholarships to the institutions that helped family members. Think of all the socialites who have suffered from anorexia and then think of how many daughters of wealth have suffered from super-morbid obesity.

Then there is the social climate. HAES and FA and body pos people are insisting that 450 pound bodies are "valid" and healthy and perfect and you've got human landslides angry that obesity is even medicalized at all, so when charities host a fundraising gala for treatment of super-morbid obesity patients, they could very well end up the subject of online Twitter witch hunts and social media nightmares ensue.

And it could also be that there are far fewer beds and therefore far fewer resources for people like Amber.

AL basically has to troll viewers because otherwise nobody would ever watch a conceited, barely literate hamplanet fail to lose weight for more than a few videos. Normies sub to her and sit through videos so they can drag her ludicrous excuses in the comments and think they're smart and she's dumb when they're actually just lining her pockets. It's one of the main reasons Amber is smarter than Chantal, who is so dumb that she expects good publicity for lying transparently to her viewers and then cripples her income potential by refusing to allow trolls to converge in her comment section; something which might bruise her ego but would indirectly produce much more revenue. Amber gets almost exclusively negative attention but she laughs all the way to Cheesecake Factory when no-adblock normies sit through eight fucking ads so they can comment that she needs to wash her hair or something. I'd let strangers call me fat or gross on the internet if it meant I could support myself and my partner financially by uploading a short no-effort no-content video once a week. Amber is genuinely pretty stupid, but when it comes to manipulation and supporting her eating habits she's stupid like a fox. She may be a fat mess bouldering towards the extra-wide grave, but that's the ends - she's played the system perfectly for the means.

Bless all of their hearts for continuing to fund Amber's shitshow.

Hamber doesn't have Binge Eating Disorder. Jesus flying fuck why do you people keep saying she does? You are feeding her delusional state. At this point people doing that might as well be her official White fucking Knights on the forums.

She has -never- binged. Not once. She's fat, and she eats constantly. A binge implies some one you know, doing a binge. Like randomly wolfing down two large pizzas. Hamber plans every thing out. She has substituted food for intimacy, approaching her emotional stress like a mature adult. But she never binges. She's an addict, but not really to food. It's just she's never had the drugs like Meth etc or the pressure to try. I have no doubt had that been her coping mechanism early on, she'd by now be a full blown crackwhore or some thing vile.

She took fantasy play time to far in her head as a kid, and used food to cope. Then because of youtube, she could make money playing dainty princess and grazing 24/7. Human instinct is to feel panic when you become incapable of basic movement. Her problems lie in her delusional state. She has moments of clarity I'm sure. Her manic episode about this diet? A chance to unfuck her weight? It lasted 2 days at most then she replaced the creeping realization of failure with her addiction. But she isn't suffering Binge Eating Disorder. She never binges. She steadily consumes day to day, the same massive caloric intake.

Thank you!!!
Finally someone said it. She doesn’t have and never had BED. She is a gluttonous pig who makes money for it. Why change?

AL won't be laughing when she looses a leg to beetus and her fat heart gives out.

She can play the system all she wants. Shes still giving up at least 25-30 years of her life.

 

[Prince Lotor]

Hadn't seen it mentioned and thought it was interesting. According to her own timeline she uploaded the 'Optavia Unboxing!!!!!' video after she had already quit the diet. In her own words she "found a reason to quit the diet" at the end of Day 2 on February 2nd.

She uploaded the 10 minutes and 45 seconds 'Optavia Unboxing!!!!!' video with 6 ads on it February 3rd, the day after she quit the diet, in the middle of "waking up in hardcore binge-mode, and just eating pasta and everything uhh, it was a mess". She put 5 exclamation points in the title of her unboxing video acting enthusiastic about a diet she had already quit, and knew the food tasted like shit, for YouTube sheckles.

It would be like if some terminally ill YouTuber did this:
January 29th video- "Fuck yeah guys! I just found a cure for my AIDs. It's not a scam or anything. It's legit, I've done my REEsearch, you'll see."
February 3rd video- "I'm unboxing my AIDs cure. This is so exciting!!!!!"
February 12th video- "Okay, storytime you guys. I quit the program to cure my AIDs on February 2nd. The program was working really well for me and I felt amazeeen on it, and it's an amazeeen program, but I decided it wasn't healthy to cure my AIDs. My doctor agrees with me that I shouldn't cure my AIDs."

Amber is a cunt

Guys I have Binge Watching Disorder.
Please donate to this important cause.

We need to watch TV to survive so it’s impossible NOT to binge watch.

I suffer every day.

Help.

she has learned to manipulate people and the system to survive all of her life. Now she is doing it en masse, but I don’t think she is a mastermind. I think she is some sort of idiot savant and also just very lucky. She is also a kindness vampire. She spots kindness as a weakness that she can manipulate and suck dry until people get catch on or get tired of it. The smart and strong get away. The others continue to get sucked back in because of their good intentions.

And it could also be that there are far fewer beds and therefore far fewer resources for people like Amber.

I think that’s really the problem here, a two-pronged negative reaction to offering help for morbidly obese patients: the general public sees them as greedy and easily able to lose weight if they just “put down the fork” and thus not deserving of help...and the FA movement declares that there’s no problem to solve and they’re all just healthy the way they are, so stop fatshaming.

Morbidly obese people often DO need a lot of help, from a therapist, a dietician, etc, because these are so often the result of emotional problems. But when you’ve got one side of the public saying it’s your fault and you don’t deserve the resources, and the other saying you don’t even HAVE a problem except that you need to be more confident and accept your dangerous weight without changing, there’s just nowhere to turn.

 

[Guardsman42]

Honestly alot of people who are morbidly obese though are only fat because of their own very stupid life choices. Not emotional problems, but simply 'but excercise is boring so I don't do it' coupled with a 4000 calorie a day diet.

On the flipside, alot of people pile on pounds when it's caused by surgery etc, and these people legitimately need help. They might not know how to maintain their weight any more because <insert normal excercise routine> no longer is viable due to surgery.

But Hamber? She did this all her self. She's triple the average body weight <Actually likely more then triple> of a male who has almost a foot on her in height. She weighs more then fucking professional football players and bodybuilders. Therapy might help, but honestly? She never wanted to put in physical work, she wants to eat food constantly and watch social media.

 

[JambledUpWords]

She never wanted to put in physical work, she wants to eat food constantly and watch social media.

I can’t blame her for wanting to do those things, but she usually misses a key component. Most people develop better self-control as they age, but not Hamber. That’s why she eats and spends erratically. She’ll give excuses like “other people do the exact same things as me and they don’t get criticized” as a way to deflect her own problems. Thing is, if everyone had the same self-control as Al with food and spending, we’d all be behemoths with money problems.

I'm not going to sit here and defend Amber, but she clearly has something going on upstairs that isn't quite right. Narcissist and bitchy though she is, a person doesn't just completely abandon every semblance of normal life to live the life that Amber lives. I don't know if it's BED or not, but it doesn't really matter one way or the other. 600 pounds is not normal, period.

All that being said, even with underlying issues a person must recognize within themselves that they have a problem (Amber has done this much), and also be willing to make changes to help themselves (Amber hasn't managed this yet).

She isn't absolved of responsibility, but let's not pretend that she is all together mentally.

 

[Wake me up]

she clearly has something going on upstairs that isn't quite right

I had been wanting to ask but since I don't know much about her I decided to wait and see if it came up naturally but does she have any traumas? Childhood traumas in particular? What about her parents?

I absolutely agree that she isn't acting sane, even for a morbidly obese person. My first guess is she could be compensating for some emotional distress that she doesn't know how to deal with in any other way and probably learned early own how to cope with it through massive amounts of food early on instead....

However, knowing her as little as I do I can already say that it's just as likely that she is a huge bag of shit who simply wants to stuff her face as much as she can and doesn't care about anyone or anything other than that, including money or a premature death. Fact is, trauma or not, she is able to look at the camera and at Becky and say the shittiest stuff with a straight face. Trauma only excuses you for being an asshole to an extent.

 

[meowmix]

Amberlynn was born addicted to drugs cause of her junkie mom. It's not surprising that she in turn is an addict.

I also have this theory that her older brother sexually abused her.

You're late to the party here, sweet pea. I'll link you to this so you can get a basic understanding of what the hell goes on here.

Start at 23:00 to get to the origin story.

 

[Shiversblood]

For me, this video proves to me that she will never lose any weight at all. She will probably gain more. But I know without doubt she will never lose weight. It’s so odd that she said she quit because it was too few calories. She can’t lose weight without eating less calories. She gave up way too quick and without putting any effort into it. She will never be able to do any diet basically. Some people said she does not want to lose weight. However, I know she wants to lose weight. But only if it happened through magic. Or some kind of magic pill. But diet and exercise is just not in the cards. And it never will be. We are literally watching someone die on YouTube.

One of the things I have noticed with Amber is that she can lose weight, but not a lot. When she (really)tries she can lose 5-10lbs but then she gives up and goes on to gain 20lbs, then she diets again and loses 5-10lbs but then gives up again and gains 20lbs. Now I feel like we are at the tipping point of no going back.

I hate to spoil it but those 5-10 pounds she always loses at the beginning of a new diet are just water weight and shit, not actual fat burned. Anyone who consumes food and drinks constantly, all day long is also coincidentally going to be carrying quite a bit of weight in liquid and food that's being processed.
