	Now's idea for the 60000-lb diaries sprung from an experience with a patient during the last season of 'My 6000-lb Life'. In 5 A.B, Now experienced a mental health crisis after witnessing his first 6,000 lb+ patient - a 6' (10'5" morbidity) [[humash]] named '[[Michael Rubescone]]' - who required two construction cranes and a bulldozer in order to be placed onto the scale- weigh in at 17,002 lbs. At this weight, Michael's limbs were incapable of moving because of the swelling and lard pumping through his body. He had acquired lymphedema on every extremity except for his fingers, granting him dangerous rashes and growths across his body. "Do you know you can exist for 4 years without eating another food?" Dr. Now had asked Michael, astonishedly, "That is, if your heart was pumping, which it is not." Michael was informed that because of his advanced weight, he would not qualify for any surgery; Dr. Now placed him on a 0-calorie diet, informing him that just a few thousand more calories could cause Michael to burst like a balloon. He instructed Michael not to eat for 5 months, and to return to the hospital once he had done so for another weigh in.
