Some of the guys that steuggle with change are just going theough normal emotions of a change. When i quit drinking and got healthier my husband struggled a bit. It changes the dynamic of the relationship. You kind of have to rwlearn your place in the relationship.
It's hard for some enablers, who love their son/daughter/wife/husband, to care for them. It's a mental illness, and needs to be treated. It's very complicated. Some of these patients can be very controlling and manipulative, and will badger their caregivers until they get what they want.
I'm from South Florida and can honestly tell you that if you weigh more than 92 pounds, they would throw you down a well and leave you there. I can't begin to imagine how difficult it would be to weigh 500 pounds. But really, good luck to them! Every day might be a struggle, but you can do it!
@@KelseyTruffer Most people like Chris are used to things staying as they are. Positive changes (even in themselves) are uncomfortable as they're used to chaos.
Henry's situation is heartbreaking. Betrayal by your parent is unbelievable.
Well Ashley's mom isn't exactly a size 2 😮
Put a 1 in front of that and she 'aint even a 12!
I don’t know where they get the money to buy all that
food stamps?
Disability, Food Stamps, Cash Assistance.
The show pays for their food during their episode, other times it's family and the government
Government unfortunately
Taxpayers

Josh did not want to loose his caretaker checks.
Very Sad These Enabers Are Insecurities And Conniving And controlling.😡😡😡😡
Always thought, because they’re not happy with their own life’s, they take a bit of pleasure destroying others.
Some people want to be an enabler bcos they like the control & having someone always need them

My heart hurts for Henry. I'm glad he went out fighting!!!!
All the enablers need psychotherapy as well....
R.I.P ASHLEY 😢😢😢😢😢😢
Your son recently had weight loss surgery, and you suggest he goes to buffets? Some parents are something else.
Gareth, then dont let the door hit you in the Ass!!
Henry foots died May of 2013....😢 1:27 Before he died he had lost alot of weight.
Her husband Josh? Looks like her son...
Josh is a sick man. He's basically ki-ll-1g Betty Jo.
Ashley's mom has the audacity to call her"fat"as of she is skinny.
Josh doesn't know about change 😮he doesn't even change his outfits if Betti Jo changes he will loose it, he needs to get a job.😮🇨🇦
Family are the reasons why these people are big like they are and family provides the money to get food to eat.
Tax payers provide it too
Someone who is overweight resenting some who's overweight too is crazy. Ashley's mom was a pos. RIP Ashley.
If I had the choice of having surgery or eating right, I'd eat right. The thought of surgery would make me lose my appetite.
First family...all are huge...nuff said
Ashley weighted more at 7 than i do and im a mom and grandmother
Why do big people use powder?
To prevent chafing between their rolls
Are you serious?
Their constant skin on skin is nothing but constant friction and skin breakdown and the growth of yeast. Painful and smelly
When you start needing powder, it's time to get in shape. You don't have to weigh 600 pounds to have rolls of blubber.
@@BlueGirafffesplus they sweat like crazy in the folds and rolls. A yeast haven
I wouldn't let that one cousin step foot in my house again!! She's just HATEFULY! 😮
Exactly what do these people do for a living to purchase all of this food? Where's the money coming from?
Make their meals 2 miles away and tell them to come and get it walking.
thats a lot of money just in food, i like to eat but thats just insane the money!
Chris is at least honest about his struggling
0:45 that TV...??
I know, right??
This was 2004/2005/2006 time when this was filmed as he was 47 when he started filiming
@@billygamer0539 I thought it was filmed in 2012?

Did you mean 192 pounds
@@elijahmathewsmusic5569I’m 6’2 98 pounds I’m starting to let myself go bro
That's not true
Omg I thought Josh was her son at first. I don't know if he has control issues. I'm guessing low self esteem 😢
14:36 - WOW this guy SUUUUCKS
Ashley's mom is toxic.
Smh
How can this good folks afford that amount off food?
Are we not gonna talk about Melissa’s husband literally cheating on her.
They should've been happy for each other. Chris looked like he lost weight himself.
@@miguelsonofzeus exactly. I don’t get why the enablers can’t be happy when the other starts loosing weight.

how th heck do they afford all the fast food? i get more than social security but not food staamps and i rarely treat myself with take out food.
Gareth is a murderer!!!
Food!!!! 🤗
All crocodile tears
This show missed a trick. Enforcers would have made it far more entertaining.
Why do they choose to drive with sterring wheel digging into their chest
I don't think it's a "choice".
Yep order the left side of the menu and wonder why you that big
I pay for my drug addiction by dealing. How do they?? You can deal fent and white. But not burgers and pizza.
