for me yes.. id never encourage someone to be imobile, theres no quality of life there. like on my 600 pound life, those people have no life, id never say hey your 550 pounds cant walk to the mail box, go eat another cake just doesn't seem right...

1) Your numbers are far from universal. I’ve met and hugged people (mostly women) in the mid-500s who have enough mobility for their purposes. I know people in the 200s of pounds who are immobile or close, and can’t walk to the mailbox. I was totally immobile in 2003 for close to 3 months, around 6' tall and 155 pounds—not from fatness. There are all sorts of reasons people can be immobile/have limited mobility/have substandard qualities of life.
2) I’m grateful to have had the opportunity to get to know one immobile (mostly from fatness) woman in our community (but not on FF) very well. She’s well below the arbitrary 500 or 550 or whatever pound mark. tl;dr: it’s nuanced.
3) I’m grateful to have had the opportunity to meet IRL someone in our community who’s a feedee who loves being fat so much that she’s been willing to take things to where the OP and others so far in this thread consider extreme. She’s living her life on her terms—who are we to judge?
4) Some people want to be encouraged to immobility… or at least make that claim (i’ve not personally interacted with them enough to establish veracity). If they have full agency, why can’t they pursue what they want? Why would it be bad for an encourager in that context to encourage them?

First thank you for the reply. I was talking immobile only due to weight gain. Not an injury, illness etc only weight gain. Yes people can encourage them to be immobile i just my self won't i don't feel its right, n well think its sick.Im not judging anyone, to me personally plumping up someone who cant function normally just isn't right. To need help going to the bath room, bathing,cooking a meal, thats no kind of life, so for me ethically thats where i draw the line..
