I just feel bad for her kid. Even if she doesn't die, she'll effectgiely be rendered useless, and if anything, her daughter will have to help her.

This is what went through my mind when I first read the article. To reach her goal, the lady is pretty much going to eat herself to death. I don't see how, between now and that moment, she can really be defined as a mother.

I feel that good parenting is important with growing children, but instead the daughter just gets to sit and watch her mother grow into a blimp, which will then probably take up most of the father's time.

This lady will be buried in a landfill, not a coffin.

maybe she can eat that ball of trash in the pacific.

Excellent idea. She'd definitely reach her goal several times over and she'd be helping the environment. Everybody wins!
