Being a bit of a pedantic asshole, but at this point AL is fucked medically for life. Her body will never 100% recover. She would absolutely improve by losing weight, but she's always going to have issues related to her health choices (or lack of them).
I have some sympathy for people who grew up not learning how eating works. I didn't. But once you hit twenty, you are developed enough and have enough resources open to you to figure your shit out. If you don't change, that's on you. You're right, preventable.
All of us had bad influences from childhood. It might be as mild as mom smoking and it might be not learning to eat well and it might be an alcoholic parent or even a helicopter parent.
Part of growing up is shaking that off and doing better. There are books, tv shows, friends, medical professionals, and specialists out there to teach you right. No excuses after 20, you are right.
And yes, AL has fucked her body up bad. If she gets down to 150, her back will never get better, her feet will always be flat and she'll need an expensive full body lift. But it's a lot better than her heart exploding which is where she is now. In her videos, the sound of her breathing just after a couple of steps is awful. There is so much pressure on her lungs. Does anybody know if she's admitted to sleeping with a cPap yet?
And this is a pretty nice forum full of good people considering our topics of conversation. .
