A 27-year-old man named Justin lived a life of isolation and severe obesity. Weighing an astonishing 683 pounds, he was confined to his home, with his world limited to just his room, kitchen, and bathroom.
The only people Justin interacted with were the delivery drivers who brought him food. Despite his isolation, he was a talented web designer who worked from home and earned a decent living. However, his income fueled his relentless appetite, trapping him in a cycle of overeating and weight gain.
His obsession with food intensified due to his father and stepmother’s strict dietary rules. By the time he turned eighteen, he weighed 330 pounds. In college, with unrestricted access to food, his weight soared even faster. Gaining nearly 44 pounds per year, his health issues worsened significantly.
