“Does the name Kenneth Brumley ring a bell? He became famously known as the Halon Dad because at his heaviest, he weighed a whopping 122 lb. Check out what happened to this man when he decided it was high time to turn his life around.

Kenneth Brumley gave a desperate sigh as he lay there in his bed. In front of him, yet another day without hope awaited. Being confined to his bed for so many days, he had given up all hope and any quality of life. The title of Halon Dad wasn’t something that made him proud, yet this somewhat unflattering nickname at least brought his plight to the attention of the world.

Born in 1968, Kenneth wasn’t always morbidly obese. Decades of bad eating habits brought him to a point that many would describe as a place of no return. With the pounds continuing to pile on, his mobility gradually started to decrease. Long gone were the days when this talented youngster showed his skill on the basketball and baseball fields. He had even tried his hand at American football and displayed some talent, but no one would believe it just by looking at him now.

Where an average adult consumes around 30,000 calories in a period of 2 weeks, this was the amount Kenny ate every day of his life. Food had become the center of his existence. The less he could move, the bigger he became, and the more he found comfort in food. By the age of 36, this father of four had become bedridden. Over the past seven years of his life, he had slowly but surely begun digging his own grave with his teeth.
