Answer 1

My fiancee takes care of mentally handicapped people. And the guy is 34 and he will eat anything you put in front of him, he can eat a hamburger in like 3 bites. I would mention it and just give him 3 meals a day and some snacks, I don't think they can feel full. I am not sure. Just make sure you talk to the doctor and ask if it is a problem. Good luck and I pray for you, you are a very good person.
