Woman wants to be fattest in the world

Donna Simpson already weighs 600 pounds, but she is determined to nearly double her size to become the world's fattest woman.

The 42-year-old from New Jersey, US, is set on reaching the 1,000 lb mark in just two years. Remarkably she insists she is healthy, despite now needing a mobility scooter when she goes shopping.

Donna, who wears XXXXXXXL dresses, eats mounds of junk food and tries to move as little as possible.

Ms Simpson already holds the Guinness World Record as the world's fattest mother, when she gave birth in 2007 weighing 532 pounds.

She needed a team of 30 medics to deliver her daughter Jacqueline during a high-risk Caesarean birth.

Yet although she can only move 20ft before needing to sit down, she wants to be even bigger. 'I'd love to be 1,000lb,' she said.
