She looks morbidly obese and way older than 19. The girl is in real denial that she killing herself with food.

[premixxed]

I don't think she is as happy as she is portraying.

I also don't think that she is 'bubbly'

I think her self hate is being projected onto other housemates.

She seems sad, but the lass doesn't have the breasticular fortitude to change how she is.

[nerf666]

Two cans of rice pudding with syrup for breakfast do that to you

[anguk]

There's no doubt Becky is way too big and I find it quite sad that a girl as young as herself is heading toward future health problems but we also have to remember the way BB edit the show. Last night's show seemed to focus on Becky's weight, the conversation with Deana, slapping her thighs together, singing about chicken nuggets while they were cooking etc.

[nerf666]

That thigh slapping was horrible and she seem to revel in it - thought I'd got over it but you've just reminded me as I'm about to have breakkie

[Princessxxx]

Can we please not turn this nasty?

I think Becky is using a faux high self confidence shield to protect the fact she actually would love to be thinner. I also think she thinks that her attitude towards her body got her in the house so doesn't want to disappoint, hence the thigh slapping.

The slapping of the thighs was simply disgusting. Her hygiene must suffer because of her morbid obesity too. Can you imagine the state of the loo after her! yikes

Did you see her big red face on last night's highlights?

I often wonder how very big people actually fit on the loo!? I hate to see someone as young as Becky the size she is, she is in her prime and looks like a middle aged woman, she has such a pretty face as well. Just pure gluttony I am afraid.

You shouldn't worry about what you eat, though, because "you could be dead tomorrow."

Yes - because you don't worry about what you eat.

Those poor pallbearers...

What horrid comments. Just because someone is obese does not neccesarily mean they have poor hygiene. There are many normal sized peoplel who have an aversion to soap and water, and do not bother to shower or bathe daily. As for the state of the loo...........what exactly do you mean??? Judging from the state of many public toilets, it would seem that this is a problem nationwide. Is it just obese people that leave the loos in a 'state', and not bother to ensure that a loo is left clean for the next person?

[jojo the joyful]

Becky is huge because she is gluttonous.

She is proud to be her size and rejoices it.

If she was uncomfortable, she would eat less.

I know not all "large people" get that way from eating too much, but Becky is a self admitted McDonalds fanatic.

Some one mentioned pallbearers. What about the nursing staff ? Some one like Becky is more likely to be admitted to hospital at a later stage and where as most ill people take 2 nurses to be turned etc, people like Becky take at leest 4, taking away nursing care from other patients and on night duty, often taking nurses away from other wards.

All this would be avoided if she simply ate less.

[karezza1966]

I hope they fail the next task and receive a basic budget.

We dont know that for sure - obesity has many causes and many treatments.

Saying all fat people should eat less fat and exercise more, is neither here or there.

She definitely needs to do something, some of her family and friends ought to have a word.

[Princessxxx]

My choice of food and my eating habits are probably worse than that of Becky. However, I'm a naturally petite girl, I have metabolism problems and it's near on impossible for me to put weight on. People often ask if I go to the gym and I'm highly embarrassed about how rubbish I am on my body but I look like I eat healthy and workout, therefore I'd find myself hypocritical if I was to join in with the Becky weight/eating criticism.

[stud u like]

If they closed down all the fast food places, she wouldn't be in this mess.

My town has so many these days.

In the 70s, it was What is a Mcdonalds? What is Starbucks? What is Costa? What is KFC? What is Burger King?

Bring back the 70s!

[caitysox]

Sorry but if she were my daughter I would be talking to her.
Its all very well being bubbly and bouncy now, but the future will be bad if she doesn't get it in check. No-one wants anyone to be nasty to others but healthy eating and weight should be promoted at all times.

I absolutely stated that in my post.

However Becky does over eat. Multiple McDonalds, not just 1,
2 tins of rice pudding, not just 1

Nothing wrong with large portions if you are hungry. I used to have 2x bigmacs at a time when I was pregnant

But surely you need to eat enough, not stuff to capacity because you can.

Which is body fascism. People should be allowed to be what they want to be.

We fought Hitler to get rid of fascism.

[Teddybear99]

I would doubt very much that Becky is 'morbidly obese' many of the other women in the house are all very slim, so by contrast of course Becky is going to look big.

Yes it would do her health good to have a better diet, but as I have said before, Lauren is doing herself far more harm with her obsession with smoking as is Luke A. Yet I don't hear anyone calling them 'disgusting' or pondering on their early demise.

I do think that deep down she would like to be slimmer and is putting on a brave face to justify her weight. I don't see that as a reason to criticise her. Also as has been said, some people put on weight a lot easier than others.

Some of the comments on here are downright nasty and uncalled for. Give Becky a break, plenty of time to worry about her diet when she gets out of there.

She is indeed. She chooses the 'I like being big, it ain't a problem' option, rather than the difficult choice of dealing with her food obsession. I will add, though, that BB may be making it seem all the worse via the editing.

What I mean, and let me be clear obout this, is obese people have a lot of excess fat around the genital areas. This means that no air circulation can lead to a build up of bacteria and thus cause bad odour.
I hate this society of correctness, where people think its offensive to talk about facts!
As for the state of the loo, it is well documented that a poor and fatty diet leads to very sloppy and smelly passing of stools. Yet another fact.

[Doug Lewis]

She says she's happy in her own skin, bless her. So, that is all that matters.

[swoled_up]

The sad thing is she chooses the path of ignorance over success, I pity her future children whom she will probably abuse through overfeeding just like her parents no doubt did to her.

[Ms Ann Thrope]

I expect she has come from a family culture of eating up what's on your plate, and showing love through food. She won't have got that way at 19 without encouragement at home.

The comfort eating is a vicious circle, the more you eat the worse you feel, so the more you eat to feel better about looking like a heifer. Once you get like that, it's incredibly difficult to overcome, because your body is always trying to get back to that and you have to work twice as hard to keep it off than someone who has never been overweight.
