Millions of women strive to lose some weight and live a healthy life, one that allows them to keep active and in top shape. Donna Simpson of New Jersey, US, already the holder of the Guinness record of world’s fattest mom, has a different opinion of how happiness should be, and has set her sight on becoming the world’s fattest woman, as the Daily Mail reports.

Simpson has struggled with weight her entire life but, since meeting her second husband on a dating website that “celebrates” obese women, she’s come to terms with how much she weighs and has stopped trying to slim down. Even more, just recently, she has decided to go for the title of world’s fattest woman and, in order to be able to pay for the food she needs to pack on the pounds, has set up a website where people can pay money to see her gorge on fast food.

“My favorite food is sushi, but unlike others I can sit and eat 70 big pieces of sushi in one go. I do love cakes and sweet things, doughnuts are my favorite. I’d love to be 1,000lb. It might be hard though. Running after my daughter keeps my weight down,” Simpson tells the Mail. For one, she has her husband’s full support, even though he weighs a mere 150 pounds. “I think he’d like it if I was bigger. He’s a real belly man, and completely supports me,” she explains.

At one point, Mrs. Simpson lost some weight and was about to have a gastric bypass, when one of her friends died after she had the procedure done. “That was a sign for me. I decided it just wasn’t worth it. I like being the way I am. […] I love eating and people love watching me eat. It makes people happy, and I’m not harming anyone,” she says of how she’s learned to love her body and earning money online to keep up her fattening goal.

In order to get to 1,000 pounds (she’s about half that weight now), Donna Simpson has come out with a plan that will see her attain her goal in about 2 years. However, to do that, she needs to be able to pay a weekly $750 grocery bill, which means a daily 12,000 calorie intake – which is where her website comes in, allowing her to make that kind of money.
