Him losing weight and then gaining the weight back is what surprised me the most about this story.I am not sure that anything, could have helped David keep the weight off. I am very impressed by David's girlfriend, Megan.I am impressed because she stuck with him through thick and thin.Yes I do think David will be more successful staying healthy this time around.I think so because he has a great support system.
The thing that surprised me the most was how he gained all that weight back. I think going to the gym and not eating the fast food would've helped him keep the weight off. I am impressed by David's girlfriend because she's sticking around even though he has gained his weight back. I think David will be more successful staying healthy this time around because he know realizes whats it doing to him.
What surprised me most is that he let his weight come back. I guess to keep his weight off he could have kept his job at the gym, keep his friends that he had met. This is really sad. I am not impressed with his girlfriend because she could have found a reason to help him not gain the weight back. I hope that he can turn everything around. This is really sad and heartbreaking. I can tell he really cares about Megan and if she leaves him, I have nothing more to say about her. I hope he can keep his determination!

That he was that big! and as far as keeping the weight off,. I guess he could have stopped eating ? That sounds like a solution to me. Yeah im impressed that his girlfriend stuck with him when he is that big. I also think that he will be more successful this time because if he isnt he is going to lose Meagan.
The thing that surprised me the most about this story was when he gain that weight back again and bigger this time around. If he would have kept going to the gym to work out he could of kept that weight off. I'm impressed with Megan for being there for him through this whole time knowing he could die if he doesn't get back in shape. I think he will this time he has megan.
This is a very sad story to hear. I watched the original story of this guy on tv when he first lost the weight. I was amazed by the inner strength he had, but I guess it didnt last. He's trying again and I hope this time the change sticks. I'm not so much impressed with the girlfriend, love goes past superficial things like weight. If she broke up with him because he was fat than he didn't need her anyway. I really want this guy to be healthy and happy with himself. He doesn't owe it to the people inspired by him, he owes it to himself.

I truthfully am not surprised about this story. Its hard to go on a diet and stick with it. Also, when you loose weight if you start to gain you normally gain more. Gaining weight so fast is really going to harm soon, his girlfriend is defiantly a good one and I hope he doesn’t loose her. Loosing weight is harder than to quit smoking, you have to be ready and nobody can make you ready, also you will be around the foods for the rest of your life you just have to say no.

It surprized me that David could gain the weight all back when he worked so hard to get it off. I think that he must not have had a lot of support with the weight loss. I'm very impressed by Megan, because she must really love him to stay with him. I'm not saying looks are everything, but obvioulsy this guy has an eating problem and little self control. Maybe David will be more successful, but obviously he had Megan already since he was skinny, so her pressence wasn't enough to keep him from eating.
The fact like this guy worked so hard and lost so much just to regain most of it again is what shocked me in this video. Himself is the only thing that can keep the weight off, you have to keep eating right and exercising just because you lost the weight doesn't mean your done. I'm very impressed with her to stay with this guy through all that. I think he will be a lot more successful staying healthy because he has support and he's got a good drive for it.
What surprised me the most about this story is that he's gained most of it back. It's really sad. I think that if he had turned to God for help and strength to carry on then he could have kept the weight off. But regardless if he is set on doing what he wants, then he's going to. I'm very impressed by David's girlfriend because regardless of how he looked on the outside she stood by him no matter what. I think that he will be more successful the second time because he knows what its like to go back and be unhappy.
For one, I never imagined this to be possible. And two, this is too sad and depressing. He knows where he went wrong and he regrets it. He even says he wants a life. :( He said when everyone was gone he would go and eat food. He knew that's where it all started off again. When he lost the weight the first time he was supposed to keep going to the gym to keep the weight off. David should have kept a schedule on what time to eat and what to eat. I quite honestly am impressed by Megan because she's his only motivation. David will definitely be more successful with his health this time. He has learned the consequences for his mistake, so he's going to try his best to keep the lost weight out of his life.
400 pounds, dang. Then he gained it all back. That's sad that he was a good looking man and didn' know how to deal with it so he had to gain it all back. That's a tragity. He can gain and loose weight like crazy. That sucks watching this watching a guys life fall apart. Hopefully he can do it again.

I cant believe he lost so many pounds just to gain it all back. If he was happy with himself outside as well as inside. I'm impressed Im glad she is sticking with him, through all of his rough moments. If he will accept himself he can do it again and keep it healthy for his own good.

Aw, this is sad. If people would be able of supporting him a lot more could have helped David keep the weight off. I am proud of David's girlfriend of staying with him, he needs it. I think David will be more successful staying healthy this time around because he has Megan.
I am surprised that he gained it all back. What could have helped David keep the weight off was he could have kept lifting weights and stuff. I am impressed by his girlfriend. She kept by his side. That is true love right there. I think he will be more successful staying healthy this time around. He looks like now he actually wants to stay that way.
This is sad. He may have lost weight if people supported him, and if he had more confidence. I am impressed by his girlfriend for standing by him.

Wow that is so ridiculous he was cute and now he's gained all that wait back. But his skin was still hanging after he lost all that wait so he didn't like the way he looked.I think he could get counseling to help him with his issues. I am very glad that she is still by his side and love him. I think with Megans help he will have a stronger drive on keeping the weight off.
I dont why it matters that he is a 650 pound virgin . He looks very good skinny . It is good that he had a girlfriend . This is very sad he didn't like what he say in the mirror . He should have somebody work with him to lose the weight , and keep it off .
I think it's crazy how he gained all of that weight back again. He looked so good. If his head and mind would have been in it then he probably wouldn't have felt the need to gain it back again. I feel bad for him but I really hope he loses it again and stays with it this time. Maybe having a girlfriend there to support him this time will help him.
I cant believe he lost so many pounds just to gain it all back. What could help keep the weight off is exercising and a diet. Yes she stayed with him. Its shows how much she loves him. I think that he will be more successful the second time because he knows what its like to go back and be unhappy.

The thing that surprised me most was him losing 400 pounds. I think that if someone worked that hard to lose all that weight they should be proud, and be an influence on others. I believe he could have influenced many people with all of the weight he lost. He almost sounds like he sort of lost hope, even after he lost all of the weight. -Josh Cutchins
I can't believe someone can gain so much weight in such a little time. I am shocked that Megan stayed around this whole time. I hope this time he stays healthy longer.ZACH CAHALAN
This man looks different between the pictures. I think David could have kept the weight off; if he could did what he suppose have done to keep the weight off. Yes, I'm impressed by his girlfriend.
That he gained the weight back. Yea shes a good girlfriend.
That someone could lose so much weight and just gain it right back. Someone helping and telling him not to eat your feelings. Yea, she must love him a lot to stay with him what he's going through. He probablu will be more healthy this time around you always try to improve when you get a second chance.
I was surprised the most about him gaining the weight back. I think he should have told somebody how depressed he was feeling and maybe his problems could have been solved a different way. I am impressed by Davids girlfriend for staying with him through all this. She really genuinely loves him and if it wasn't for her, he most likely would have killed himself. I think he will because now he knows what to except and he is ready.
That there is people that do lose weight but everyday they look in the mirror and don't know who they are. I believe if anyone could help him it would be his girlfriend. Yes, I am in some ways 1 reason is because she came in the picture when David was small but even when he gained his weight back she stayed there. Yes, I do the David will because of his fear of losing Megan and the fear of losing his life.
