www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/01/22/mikel-ruffinelli-worlds-largest-hips_n_2526338.html QUOTE: Mikel Ruffinelli Sets World Record For Largest Hips 01/22/2013 Her hips certainly do not lie. Mikel Ruffinelli, 39, a 420-pound woman with an eight-foot circumference, set the new world record for World's Largest Hips, according to the World Record Academy. The mother of four, of Los Angeles, Calif., stands at just five-foot-four, has a proportionally small 40-inch waist, and is completely content with her shape, the Daily Mail reported. "I see no reason to diet because I don’t have health problems," Mikel said. "Men don’t fancy skinny girls, they like an hourglass figure." Ruffinelli's husband, Reggie Brooks, and she have been married for 10 years. "She had a sweet disposition about her that really attracted me to her," Brooks told Barcroft TV. "I like to tell people all the time, 'I have a license to work with heavy equipment,'" Still, Ruffinelli's 100-inch wide hips makes everyday tasks difficult. According to the World Record Academy, the plus-size model must drive a truck and use a reinforced chair at home to accomodate her frame. She also struggles with fitting through door entrances and sleeps in a 7-foot-wide bed, Closer reported. Ruffinelli first began gaining weight when she was 22, after having her first child. "I put it down to my pregnancies," she said. "I don’t see why else the weight would go to my hips, although, I do eat lots." "Lots" includes nearly 3,000 calories a day. "In the past, I was self-conscious about my hips," Ruffinelli said. "As I got older, I learned to love my body and now I’m not afraid to show it off."

Strange kind of hourglass. Tip her upside down, and where would the sand go?

Why does she look so happy? Because she's the greatest! That's what I dislike about this sort of story. Were she to "go public" to say that she is what she is and happy about it, she might get my respect. But she seems to be turning her unusual size into a competition, and I feel uneasy about this.

"Wide hips" is an understatment. Fat lard would be the appropriate statement.

There are people who actually gain this much weight for media attention too! Like the fatest people in the world, etc.

I watched an episode of strange addictions and it was a couple that their goal was to get her so fat that she was bed bound.....and then would rely completely on the hubby for her every need. She already weighed something like 600 or 700 lbs and even had a website where you could pay to watch her eat and bathe.............
To say it was disturbing.......well that just doesn't fully explain it........gave me nightmares!!!

Some of these people will do anything just to become a celeb of some sort. Look at the Octomom. It's pretty obvious now that she did it all for media attention. She's making money on her little website, with men paying to take her out. She's going on the Dr. Drew show. This woman too! It's a strange plan in life, but some do it...
