Do morbidly obese people qualify for disability?

Found the answer...you cannot be declared disabled on obesity alone...the law changed in 1999...you must have some other kind of impairment that prevents you from seeking gainful employment...honestly had no clue and now I know...just wondered cause if this guy was walking to Walmart 3-4 times a day...how was he affording to do this...maybe working wife...supportive family

hope he inspires others

Or maybe he was doing online sales...or something else that allowed him to telecommute.

That'd be nice, but judging by the quality of people who are morbidly obese I don't see many of them following his path frown

Effort, determination and "deciding" you want a better body, mind and spirit, is all it takes. That is a lot!
