Half Ton Son Billy Robbins : Robbins Half Ton Son (photos)
By Therese Lisieux on January 10th, 2009Billy Robbins is the World’s Heaviest Teenager. Robbins weighs 60 stone, which is more than half a ton. Robbins is sometimes nicknamed as World’s Half Ton Teen.
Robbins was restricted in movements and housebound for the past 3 years. Robbins forced himself to lose weight because his doctors warned him about the health risks. The Half Ton Teen’s mother is Barbara Robbins, who loves him so much that she waits on him hand and foot. The World’s Heaviest Teenager loves hamburgers, pizza, cola, chips, donuts and fattening cheese.
How did Billy Robbins get to be so heavy? His mother dotted on him hand and foot. She lost a baby before Billy was born. Mrs Robbins felt guilty and fed Billy. She lavished food, attention and love on him to make up for her guilt of losing her child. Even after Billy became large in size, she did not stop. She could not stop herself and continued to feed Billy large amounts of food.
UK’s Channel 4 produced a documentary on Half Ton Son to feature Billy Robbin and his battle with the bulge.
Billy Robbins had 1 operation to remove 5 stone of flesh. Robbins changed his diet and sedentary life style. He lost 20 stone. Robbins had a surgery to fit him with a gastric band. Robbins left the hospital weighing 35 stone.

February 2nd, 2009 at 9:50 am
What has happened to him? I have been so worried for him I need to know he is alright. He is so young and his parents ought to be ashamed of themselves for allowing this to happen to this innocent young man. Please let the world know that Billy will have a fight at life! I pray for you Billy. You are such a wonderful human being and deserve the best. Fight for your life!

the documentary of billy was sick big time,his mother acted like he was 8 month old..And billy accepted the role,even after the surgery he was drooling and coughing up phlegm and let it go on his chest..he made no effort to clean it up..he just said sorry mum and she wiped it for him..same goes for when he crapped his self..he just told her and she changed him with a man size nappy has if the most normal thing in the world..this got be the most unhealthy relationship anyone could ever have.Billy now half his original size 7 2 09..having lost 30 stone…..however long term i have serious doubts that he will keep it off…His mother really screwed his life up continually waiting on him..instead of getting him outside to be one of the gang…she achieved her goal of keeping him has a baby having lost her first child at the age of 18 months…whilst this sad ..surely she should have wanted more for her son instead of enabling him to be a cripple…billys father should have gripped the situation prior to it becoming uncontrollable.

FAT C***
March 2nd, 2009 at 1:36 pm
The documentary tries to make victims out of these people, anyone who is able to eat that much should actually be shot, it is repulsively disgusting! They are not victims, they are gluttons! It is very possible to say NO to food. These people are sick and revolting and I have no sympathy with them or their families whatsoever

I have a fetish for fat people and feel i need to have intercorse with this mammoth of a man!!!!!!!!!
March 4th, 2009 at 2:12 pm
I THINK THAT THE HALF TON SON IS A BEAUTIFUL INDIVIDUAL WHOM LOVES HIS FOOD WHICH IS A GREAT REWARD OF AMERICAN LIFE. I HATE AMERICANS AND THE FAT. england rules.
suk me

I think this boy is going to have a lot of body issues for the rest of his life. Also having once been 250 and managing to come down to 175 I know that no matter what he does it is highly unlikely for him to lose that extra skin and flesh in some areas. So even when he enough weight to be slim or within proper weight range he will cellulite ridden and flabby. His body will probably never see definition or tone even if he works out like a bodybuider. His body will be mark with stretch marks and he will probably that swishy looking baggy bodied skin that old lady had after losin 500 lbs. As for his mother she should arrested for child cruelty. Any parent who allows their child to reach 300 lbs or I suppose 20 stone should have their kids taken away. No one under 18 should be morbidly obese and should be sent to a manditory fat camp. I believe that like anorexia such morbid obesity is not mental illness as well. Government should intervine. USA needs work but ROCKS. p.s. whered she the money to feed him.
March 4th, 2009 at 5:57 pm
I wonder why he hasnt died yet many other people unlike him and some these other people have from various obesity related issues before ever reaching 500lbs let alone 1000lbs. It’s also a shame that anyone would let his pecker get swallowed in his jelly rolls. I think it’s horrible he’s certainly no victim. I mean if you’re fat and kids are teasing you, STOP EATING THAT DAMN MUCH AND GET YOUR LAZY ASS PEDDLING A BIKE. THIR IS FOR EVERY LARDO WORK IT THE MOTHER F@.?KING OUT. I HATE DOING STUFF TOO BUT YOU’LL BE DAMNED IF U THINK I GOING TO LET MY ASS END UP IN A WHEELCHAIR OR BED RIDDEN CUZ IM FAT. I only got fat once as result of extended hospitalization but after I was capable of exercising normally I did and it hurt like hell and still does but I do it you lazy asses

You people are disgusting. His mother guilted him in to eating. She lost a baby and in return made her other son feel guilty for it. She is the only one to blame in this situation. Billy didn’t know any better as that is how his mother raised him. It is called enabling.
I’m sure you are all perfect and just don’t understand. No one blames you for being ignorant.
March 9th, 2009 at 3:21 pm
I watched half-ton teen last night. Being a person who can practically eat anything and not gain 1 pound, i can understand that giving up tasty foods cannot be easy. Someone mentioned on another board the mother may have a disease that makes her want her son to be sick so she can feel needed. I can completely see that. By overfeeding her son and spoiling him he wouldn’t “go off to college” like a typical 18 year old. Luckily it appears SOMEONE reached out in that family (probably the kid!) since he was getting scared about dying. At the end of the show the mom meets with the psychologist who was ripping her most of the show. I hope they do a follow-up and sets this mom straight: Get a life outside of your kid!
March 10th, 2009 at 8:29 am
First off, that kid has nothing but props for trying to help himself. His mother isn’t the devil, nor is she a saint. Nobody except God can judge them. Secondly, that kid needs to separate ties with his mother and live in a healthy environment until he can come to grips that he himself as a MAN is responsible for what happens to him from here on out. It’s rough, and often times not pretty to break away from the people we love who are enablers… but IT MUST BE DONE TO BE SUCCESSFULL! I Really really feel bad for this kid, and for his mom who thought babying him was the answer to everything. His father shouldn’t have been so enabling either. I have no right to judge any of them, I just know if this kid seriously wants to live, he needs to be independant of his parents who watched all of this happen and later came to the conclusion that it went entirely too far. Billy, I believe in you buddy, don’t let anyone under any pretense sabotage your life. I believe in you, and so does a majority of the downtrodden/misunderstood in this country. I pray only for the best buddy.

Also, This kids parents shouldn’t be able to baby him anymore. Do I doubt she/he loves him with every fiber of their being? HEll NO! Do I believe it is imperative for him to be able to be his own man!? YOU BET YOUR ASS. God loves this man and his family as much as he loves any one of us talking here. The second you start pointing fingers and playing God, guess who looks like an ass? The facts I stated about him needing to learn how to control his own life are true, and lie only in his hands. I know his mom will want to baby him because it’s all she knows. I love that woman for wanting the best for him, but she’s going to need as much pyschotherapy as he does nutritional education in order to have a healthy relationship with him. The doctors in the show said he did better without her around in the short term, and you heard what the patient liason said. I hope she really keeps her “mission” because she is a light amongst darkness to people in that situation. I hope everyone realizes that any vice can get us low, maybe not kill us directly, but everyone can buy into something they think makes them feel better that is eventually destructive. I’m the farthest thing from a saint, and I’ve been in a situation myself that saw me lower then low, and even had my enablers. I just know there’s people out there that have beaten the odds, and so long as there’s people out there continuing to do that, they are a light fog/smog/smoke and dark cannot dim.

well now, looks like he went to all you can eat and ate all he could. Thanks to Good ole mom she’s just the best .I have this overwhelming urge to crap my pants right now so it is just me mom and the GIGANTIC diaper genie washing my 18 year old poopie ass what a turn on. I can then tell all my friends share poopie pants storys and just kick back for some twinkies and cheese. for real tho he should be removed from mother munchousen before she kills him and what was the father thinking oh yeh he evidentally wasn’t don’t know who wears the pants in the family but I know who wears the biggest
March 27th, 2009 at 12:43 am
It is a shame that so many issues, especially with his mom , need to be worked out. But oh my goodness, way to go!! You are doing great.
May 18th, 2009 at 2:21 pm
billy’s great…
its his MOTHER thats the FRICKEN NUTBAR!!!
she babied and enabled that GROWN MAN as if he were a 6 month old INFANT…and he LOVED IT!!!
instead of focusing on BILLY’S problems
get that MOTHER a few years supply of PROFESSION HELP…she should know better, she lost one
baby and now shes KILLING the other one herself
single handedly!!
LET THE KID GROW UP and be an independent A-D-U-L-T
and if he wines…oh well…like you do with a baby…LET HIM WHINE…and she should GO OUT and leave him to whine on his own time
feed him HEALTHY food and CONTROL THE PORTIONS,

What have Americans done to all of you to make you hate them so much? Im American and I never say, I hate the English. I dont get it.
June 3rd, 2009 at 7:44 pm
This is ALL HIS MOTHERS FAULT
June 3rd, 2009 at 7:47 pm
Ignorant F’ing Brits.. It’s not “AMERICANS”in general! It’s the crazy damn MOTHERS.. and those are global.
June 23rd, 2009 at 2:25 pm
“madame”, they’re still mad at us for dumping their tea and winning the war. Its probably also a thorn in their sides that America had to bail their butts out of two different world wars.
June 28th, 2009 at 5:27 pm
Interesting feed! Ultimately we can all see the guy was well morbidly obese…well done for all of you who noticed. At the end of the day the programme was made 4 entertainment purposes, and the fact there has been no follow up since it was made shows that! There are no emotions involved in good TV, this story was just so shocking, and you want to switch off in disgust, but lets face it, you can’t because the queer curiosity in you has to see what happens. So don’t take it so seriously, the whole point is that he was getting help, so it was a positive show.
PS. Brits dont hate Americans, its just a couple of small minded people talking who don’t represent us all… PLUS
@ Monica, u can’t turn up at the end of a war, as America did in both cases and just claim to have won it for someone…what about all the lives that were lost waiting on America to decide it may just get involved? Go read a history book love!
June 29th, 2009 at 11:51 am
I agree with the last commenter.
Lives were lost because of America’s indecisiveness on whether or not to get involved. You really cannot join a war at the end of it and claim to have won it for us.
And besides, you can’t JUST blame it on the mother. I mean, who the hell eats 2 Big Macs & doesn’t feel sick? It’s gluttony, that.
He had a voice to say “No, mother, I’m full.” It’s not like she force fed him. He just liked the attention, that’s why he went back home, because he missed his mum’s attention.
Okay, so he asked for the help, but that doesn’t make him completely innocent.
I know there’s many times when I have said to my Mum “No, it’s okay. I don’t want a dessert, I’m full.”
On the flip side, I understand how hard the lad worked, I know, myself, that it is hard to not want a Big Mac when you’re trying to eat healthily, even if you don’t put weight on, you still know that Big Mac isn’t good for you all the time.
So, I can only wish him good luck in his endeavour to become 14 stone, and I hope he does it.
I think I speak for a few people when I say this; I wish the rest of America had the same determination as that lad, to lose weight.
July 1st, 2009 at 2:34 am
You Brits have got to be joking when you speak of how unhealthy Americans are. I’ve live in England for 3 yrs. now. I just want to say that yes, peas are healthy, but the massive amounts of gravy that you dump on them (and everything else for that matter) is NOT!
July 15th, 2009 at 4:30 am
HA @ What the…! yeh Brits r unhealthy 2, a lot of people in developed countries are these days, but I wouldnt compare heavy gravy to supersizing McEverything and thinkin diet soda will reduce your calorie intake! Only in America does that make sense!
