46. Appetite is different than eating as a substitute for other needs

Nobody eats like Trump does because he's physically hungry. He's trying to fill a void that's literally bottomless. Drugs be damned, he'll never stop until he's unconscious for so long every day that he doesn't have time to get all the food in.

I once knew somebody that actually had the surgery to make it impossible to ingest that much. Afterwards, she both substituted high calorie liquids and ate beyond her new comfort level until everything stretched to accommodate her previous habits.

She'd been supposed to attend therapy to address her issues. Instead, she beat the surgery. She's dead now.
