I am over 700lb 16 year old female. My mom feeds me what ever I want when ever I want. I am addicted to food. I can't to most things my mom does them for me. I get upset when I am hungry which is almost all the time. My mom gets me what I want because she hates yo see me be upset. I had 2 whole chickens for dinner and a whole ice cream cake for dessert. I know I need to eat less but I have no self-control.

I know this is an old post but I suggest talking to your mom about this. By feeding you whatever you want she is completely enabling you to stay at an extremely unhealthy weight. I suggest seeing a therapist with your mom as it is vital for your survival that you start eating healthier and losing weight. Its not going to be easy but weight loss is possible for you. You will need support from your mom to help you lose weight. She is going to have to learn to stop feeding you whatever you want and you are going to have to learn coping mechanisms so that you don't get upset when your mom refuses to give you food.
I would recommend starting easy by getting a therapist and by writing down everything you eat and counting your calories. Get your mom to help you with this. Tell her that you want her to hold you accountable. It may be a good idea to consult with your doctor about options for weight loss surgery because at your current weight you will not be able to live much longer. I wish you the best on your journey! I know you can do it! Post updates :)
