I'm watching this new show on STYLE network (or E!) called Ruby. Have ya'll heard of this? Ruby Gettinger is a southern girl from Savannah, Georgia who has lots of friends, loves dogs and teaches Sunday school. She also weighs about 500 pounds. She has weighed over 700 pounds.
This show is her journey to lose weight to save her life. Doctors have told her that she is a walking (sleeping) timebomb- a "metabolic time bomb waiting to go off." He tells her that she could just stop breathing in the night. She admits that she only eats unhealthy things and that she has a food addiction.
I just love so much of what she says. She says that it's the "beast". Everything in her life is good but this- her weight. I know how that feels. She also talks about how this (her body) is just a "shell." That when people stare at her in public or laugh at her or make comments, it's only her shell that they are judging.
I'm so hoping that Ruby can get it together and lose weight.
