The Resume

    (August 27, 1943-November 29, 2006)
    Resident of Auburndale, Florida
    Recognized by the Guinness Book of Records as the world's heaviest woman and as the woman who lost the most weight

Why she might be annoying:

    She weighed 1,200 pounds.
    She suffered from depression.
    After contracting septicemia she spent most of the 1980s in bed.
    She ate up to 15,000 calories a day.
    She would eat three large pizzas in 40 minutes and wash them down with diet soda.
    When she fell out of bed, rescue workers used an inflatable cushion designed to right overturned cars to get her back in place.
    She tried to commit suicide by overdosing on painkillers, but because of her size, they only put her to sleep for two days.

Why she might not be annoying:

    Richard Simmons sent her a diet plan and exercise tapes, telling her, ‘God doesn't make junk and you are worth the effort.'
    She followed the diet plan and started exercising by clapping along to the videos because ‘It was the only movement I could do.'
    In a year, she lost 420 pounds.
    She eventually reduced to 314 pounds.
    She sued the ‘Star' tabloid when it claimed she had been unable to have intimate relations with her husband at her top weight.
    She said, ‘It's about taking small steps to your goal. You can do it if you really try. I'm living proof of that.'
