An Attempt at Success

Chapter 1 - Planning and Preparation

Wayne wanted to be on TV, be seen as a big success and he wanted to do so on his favourite show. My 600lbs life had been his favourite show since its début, he couldn't tell you what it was about it. However, he didn't originally have any intention to be on the show. His plan came to him while he was drunk and watching reruns. A wish and a like came together to form the idea.

Phase 1

Get big enough to be on the show but remain in control of the total intake so he could cut back when the time came.

Phase 2
Be on the show and lose the weight at an extraordinary rate. So extraordinary surgery won't even be needed.

Phase 3
Enjoy the success and use it to continue a TV career as a fitness and diet personality.


For it to truly be worth the extraordinary effort Wayne deduced he needed to be the biggest contestant to be on the show so far, 410kg/900 lbs at least. This is quite the departure from the slim figure Wayne had always had but that was no deterrent. Wayne calculated how many calories he would need to eat to turn his 70kg/150 lbs into 410kg/900 lbs. With an absolutely sedentary lifestyle, he would need to be eating 8000kcal every day to start with, bolstering that figure up to 10000kcal as progress slows. In addition, it would take a total of four to build his body up to the desired level.

The figures revealed to Wayne that it wouldn't be as simple as he thought. However, this just encouraged him. He threw himself into planning and preparation.

Wayne set about using this time building up a stockpile of high-calorie foods. He needed to be absolutely sedentary once he started so he built a bed that could not only hold his projected size but also take care of his functions and give an accurate measure of his weight. He set up entertainment and anything else that he could possibly need, so that as soon as his stockpile reached the necessary size.

It took a year for the 24-year-old to finish all his preparation and as the clock struck midnight he knew it was time to start Phase 1 of becoming a weight loss success story.
