Because she the best example of all 7 of the deadly sins, but her gluttony knows no bounds being morbidly obese while houseless is bordering on impressive

Unfortunately, fat doesn’t just melt away because you eat *slightly* less. Especially when you are sedentary like she is (and probably has been her entire life) and when she does eat it’s super processed and void of nutrition. Especially as a woman.
It’s taken decades to look the way she does, why would it take only several months change drastically?

Yeah, I'm in a wheelchair and movement is my biggest issue with trying to lose weight, even though I barely remember to eat thanks to my ADHD meds.
It's also incredibly easy to maintain at a bare minimum if you're eating junk food, drinking lots of soda, or going for cheap unhealthy foods. A lot of people don't realize just how many calories they take in from liquid alone.
Also iirc she claims to have PCOS, which can cause a slew of issues with weight loss like insulin resistance amongst a ton of other shit.
Fat takes as long, if not longer to come off.

I've seen PCOS mentioned, and her facial hair issues and the patches of darker skin would line up with that; I can't imagine insulin resistance plus her beloved diet of sugar and more sugar are doing wonders for her health.

I have insulin resistance pcos and I have to basically eat high protein diet and watch what I eat plus take medications like ozempic and metformin for my body to actually lose weight so I can’t imagine her losing anything when all she eats is junk food ): also I’m very a

I think even if she wasn't drowning in delusion and did want to watch her weight, from what you're describing I genuinely don't think she would have the attention span and mental capacity to follow along with all of that if she tried. I hope you're finding the joy you want with it though.

Also just judging by her hair growth she might have pcos *speculation* and it’s harder to lose weight with it so just cutting a meal out won’t help her lose weight. I had to practically starve myself and walk 10 miles a day to lose weight with my pcos
u/Employer-Normal • 1 month ago • score 18
the little she does make or she gets from scams, buy fast food only
u/Sammy_Saw_Shank • 1 month ago • score 18
I mean, she’s definitely got some sort of hormonal disorder like PCOS, because that would also explain the facial hair. But I think the main thing is she’s not exactly going to the gym or sticking to a diet through this whole process. She’s literally just waddling around shopping or stuffing her face with the greasy crap she can afford with what little money she has, and then ending the day with the probably less than nutritional food she gets at the shelter

This reminded me of the Bob Hickman saying “God entered my body, same size” 😂.
Well she spent any dollar she got stuffing her face. Never heard of anyone being homeless because they can’t stop buying food lol.
u/Ok_Mud_3985 • 1 month ago • score 7
Because people enable her by sending her money and there’s nothing more important to her than her caloric intake
u/HPMJ2014 • 1 month ago • score 43
Tophia is an addict and she will get her fix however she can, even if it means eating her moms portions or using her snap to eat. She will find a way. Eating slightly less and never moving won’t help you lose weight. I don’t think she has ever drank water, so that doesn’t help either. It will benefit her when she is homeless in winter though.
u/thisunrest • 1 month ago • score 10
To be fair though, the morbidly obese are told to get to a calorie-deficit and stay there for a while before adding exercise.
Eating less than maintenance-intake WILL make you lose weight even without exercise… it will take longer is all.
PCOS alone won’t make you obese, but it does mean you need to work harder to lose the weight than someone without it.
u/thisunrest • 1 month ago • score 4
That’s true.
Fatty, sugary food gives you a dopamine hit just like drugs, and food is legal.
She’s probably addicted to sugar.

Calorie dense food is cheap. The shelter is probably serving things like pasta, sandwiches and chips, etc. with enough calories to feed an average adult. Tophia is spending what little money she has on boba tea and junk food. She could waddle down to the dollar store and walk out with thousands of calories of junk for $10 or so.

I had the same question. I saw her drinking a Gatorade after a Sunny D while stuffing her face with Fritos. I imagine she gets a few hundred in food stamps. I’m going to look what the max is in NM
u/JMV_12-30 • 1 month ago • score 8
The max allotment for a single person is $292 a month. She must be doing side hustles for chips.

I mean tbh fat and carbs aren't that expensive. A sugary Arizona is only 99¢ and there's those off brand Cheetos that are only like $3-5 a big bag.
u/ContentRaspberry3069 • 1 month ago • score 19
Shelters usually serve eggs, sausage, cold cereals, and juice for breakfast, sack lunches of a sandwich and chips, and then do a starch heavy bulk meal like rice or pasta with a protein for dinner. Tophia is eating these three meals a day, plus using whatever money she has—and likely Marie’s EBT card—to get the corner store snacks and fast food that she wants. Keep in mind that most shelters don’t allow snacks outside of the kitchen/cafeteria for pest control reasons so Tophia is probably trying to stuff her face with whatever she can get her hands on in the meantime.

Ok jokes aside I’m pretty sure it’s because she eats 3 meals a day from the shelter plus another 3 meals she buys from fast food restaurants??

There’s a homeless fatty in my local area, she sits on the waters in front of gas stations begging for money while looking big as all outside. Onetime I was grabbing some food and a car dropped her off in the drive through. She proceeded to knock on everyone’s window to beg, worst part is is that ppl actually gave it to her😒

Homeless women have far bigger concerns than eating nutritiously, such as sexual assault and death. If you're more concerned about a homeless woman's weight than the dangers she faces on a daily basis, you might be a piece of 💩. A lot of you claim Tophia deserves the treatment she gets because of all the terrible shit she's done, which is fair, but are really just bullies looking for easy targets to take your abuse out on without pushback. No reason to attack a random homeless woman like that for being bigger. Disgusting.

When you’re poor, the easiest foods to access are also the most unhealthy ones. There’s actually a lot of research about how areas with a higher poverty rate also have a higher rate of obesity and related diseases! We know that she makes no effort to make smart food choices, and also she does nothing but sit online quite literally sun up to sun down. She was doomed even before homelessness lol
