If you could see people that live like that everyday I'm sure you'd change your mind. Someone that's stuck in a bed has to be turned and positioned every two hours, or else they can develop sores, and with an obese person that risk is increased due to all the folds in the skin. If they don't receive proper care they can end up in a lot of pain, and unfortunately a lot of health care workers these days are only in it for the money. And even if that's not the case, it's still really humiliating to be a grown man or woman who has to depend on strangers to clean their private areas, dress them, bathe them, toilet them...you really have no idea what they go through.
