No, that would happen if he was actually being starved. Even when they aren't on a luxury budget they get plenty of food, it's just plainer. He's just moaning because he's greedy, and as others have said he shouldn't have gone in there if it would be such an issue. No sympathy from me.

If you hate him merely because of his 'appearence' then its the same as racism. Criticse his personality - fine - but just on his appearence alone? Its pretty shallow isn't it?

Well it's actually a health problem until he chooses to correct it and it's not the same as racism since race is inalterable where as weight is a reflection of lifestyle.

It is possible to do but weight loss is not easy and for people in Jacks situation which, let's not beat around the bush, is obese to morbidly obese it requires an absolutely drastic change to lifestyle.

Being in the situation Jack is in, his body will be accustomed to a larger calorie intake than most of the other housemates. His metabolism will be functioning differently to the others so he will be feeling the hunger an awful lot more than the others. However he's not nearly complaining as much any more. That's a symptom of his metabolic system adjusting. Even on the luxury budget their diet is restricted don't forget. He's not going to get down to a healthy weight in the house but he will probably be put on the right track and unless he sinks back into older habits could get there within a few months of leaving.

Jack's a greedy boy, his life revolves around filling his cakehole at every turn and at any cost. I agree, he thinks he's going to win - somehow we the public and BB gave him that impression. Its time for a reality check for this bloated ego.

99% of the time it's an indicator of how strong a person you are. Strong willed people won't be fat. I don't like greedy people or weak people, soz.

In most cases, you're right, it is down to will power (although some people are naturally slim and just don't put on weight no matter how much they eat). I think everyone has their weaknesses, so to dislike people because they have a weakness is a bit of a **** way to look at things. Don't apologise for it though

Sadly Jack will get even larger - its sad but true

Yeah there is. Hating on naturally skinny people, the saying 'real women' implying that unless you're curvy you aren't 'normal'. Skinny being used as an insult for guys who aren't muscular etc etc

However, beyond my comment just now about the fat hate on here, I don't post anything derogatory about anyone's size because I know how damaging it can be from both sides
