None of them are able to work, yet they have to pay rent (move to Houston), pay for food, cable, etc. I'll admit none of them are living high on the hog - pardon the pun - but where do they get their money?
Oh, yes they are. Only one has been brave enough to mention it, but many of the subjects on this show make a living doing feeder porn. Zsalynn, one of the first subjects, met her husband as part of a BBW group where men who fetishize ultra obese women pay their way. When she started to lose weight, he lost interest and they divorced.
Other than that, I'm sure many are also legitimately receiving disability payments. They may have done it to themselves, but being too fat to move from your bed is disabled, and the resulting health issues would make it hard to find a typical job.
