600 lb plus planning

I would like this thread to be of actual life style and practical real world solutions to living and support yourself at very large weights.

1 - equipment and aids
2 - clothing
3 - external support
4 - transport
5 - finically

I write this a gainer going to be 600 plus in a few years, and I would like to be prepared.

So current information please, and ideally for Australia.


Thanks in advance BWL.

600 lb plus planning

From what I have read, having a hoist essentially fixed into the foundations of the house is very useful.

Being in Australia, I’d suggest speaking to someone about NDIS funding for disability related expenses.

You'll want a mobility aid like a scooter for sure, and in my case, that necessitated trading my sedan for a van with an external mount and cover. In the US, the scooters available at most stores and other venues only support about 500 pounds.
