She’s full of excuses. The food she cooks for her kids and herself is a BIG no no, not a single vegetable in sight.
Most addicted people are full of excuses
Excuse me!? Those french fries are oven roasted fyi picture of health, and protein in those dogs and beans. Well rounded meal 🤦🏽♀️ can you believe she literally says I cheat sometimes then blatantly lies and says I don't eat anything I'm not supposed to smh and her helper lady is on the side like omfg
not eating vegetables is crazy, vegetables are good asf
Or salad.
Occasionally it’s fine, but when your weight is killing you, it’s not time for treats.
You fix dinner, and you don’t ask your kids what they want. You fix a healthy meal so your children don't end up with a weight problem too.
Fast food should be a treat and junk foods can be for dessert some nights. They don’t have to take it all away for their kids and it will teach them how to practice more moderation too
Most kids like healthy meals too
@@artbynadiabl it’s about the seasoning! Kids like tasty things. If you boil veg and eat it plain, not appetizing. Put a little pepper and spices and boom, it’s awesome
@@retroreceptionist7571 I only wish I could upvote this more than once.
You can give kids the option: "Would you like A or B for dinner?"
Say lasagna or chicken and potatoes or something. Normal, healthy options. It gives you control but let your kids feel like their opinions matter, too. The only time I might give them full control, with a reasonabe limit, is on their birthday. Making it more of a treat than an every day occurence.
She's rather fast when she is upset lmao, imagine telling her to do a lap around the hospital to calm down
I was going to comment this but I knew someone already beat me to it :(
Right

Hahahahaha!!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
It's amazing how they lie to him, thinking he'll believe them.
They lie to themselves more than anyone
😂😂😂iknr
@@mindmonkey00 definitely 😂😂
They have been lying all their lives, why should the Doctor be treated any different?
they're so deluded in so many ways
This is an old episode. She ended up losing almost 300 pounds and has kept the weight off. It takes a lot to unlearn lifelong habits. She felt big emotions and it was rough getting started but she stuck with it and showed a lot more willpower in the end than a lot of people could muster. We all feel like quitting at one time or another, this is a good reminder that sometimes you gotta throw a fit but keep going.
That's fantastic, go her. Thanks for sharing
Yay!!!🎉
That's great- but it certainly doesn't distract from the fact that she's not really a good person.
That's great! Where is the episode wd love to see this?
@@jonathansack6827 how do you know she's not a good person?
She lied about walking through the department store, she rode her scooter.
😂😂😂😂 it's how they can keep a straight face when they are lying and her mum is as bad ,I would have called her out ,
It's weird that they lie _knowing_ they were recorded.
I saw that!! I was like dude the mom is right there listenin to her daughter lie through her teeth! Sometimes I wonder why the families don’t speak up.
They’re in denial. They remember things differently that what the reality is/was
So what? At least she is trying. You can't expect someone like that to just get up and start walking 5 miles a day. . . Yes, her knees hurt. . I get it. . No I am not making fun of her by any means. I'm about 100lbs overweight myself. . I know how it feels. Do I need a scooter or anything? No, but I do have to take a break every so often. . PLUS, I am a diabetic and have neuropathy as well. . . . So everyone single one of you STOP MAKING FUN OF PEOPLE!
Her attitude just makes it worse
You're completely right. Having a positive attitude is half the battle
First thing I noticed 😮
Update : She lost almost 300 pounds
@@itsjazzlyn101 update: i get 0 play
You didn't walk the whole department store love, you sat in your motorised cart, ate chips and tomato sauce and hot dogs. Accountability is required.
Exactly
Pro tip: don’t tell the doctor he’s preaching at you when he’s trying to save your life.
Hello 👋 pretty lady how are you doing and the weather condition like
@@JacksonWalter-hg2kb”and the weather condition like” 💀 LMAO
That was my thought. If I had been the doctor I would have told her we were done as soon as she put that hand up & made that statement. If she can't listen then she can't be a patient.
I saw French fries, cupcakes, and hot dogs in this clip and she wondering why she can't lose weight.
Not a single vegetable.
&& she said she walked a whole department store🙃I didn't see 🤔I guess it was edited out🤷🏾♀️
THEN...... The bun😬😬
🐷
I lost heaps of weight eating nothing but pizza, burgers, kebabs, fries, alcohol etc
“I walked a whole department store”
… did we watch the same video ? She used her scooter
It was HEAVILY edited
He watched the video too, his son does the taping
These peeps dont deserve any help , they keep eating like pigs , all the food I saw was WRONG ! !
After I had my daughter, I got divorced from a monster. My daughter was 4 years old. I was totally alone, on my own, no family to support me, and over 300 lbs. I gained so much weight because I was in a horrible relationship. After my husband left everything for my daughter was up to me!! I put her needs before my own! I went to college online, worked 2 jobs, and lost over 100 lbs! Today, I'm 170 lbs, I have 3 Masters degrees and am an administrator at a school, and my daughter is 29, and has an amazing work ethic and is such a good girl. You have to love your children before and above everyone and everything, including food!! It can be done, but if you don't have a good work ethic, you won't make it..buck up!!
Happy for you
yet you are looking for validation from strangers on you tube.
@@thomasjones3508 so what?
It's encouraging to read about a weight loss success story!🎉 We need to know about the realities involved with losing large amounts of weight.
It's not easy and it takes a lot of hard work, but the testimonials let people know that it can be done!!
The validation doesn't come from
UA-cam. That lady's validation comes from her weight loss!.... All the hard work she invested in!.....The proper care she took with her daughter and herself!..... Being a successful school administrator is her validation too! She doesn't need UA-cam....... Her life story validates her!! ❤. Who is thinking that UA-cam validates Life?
....Who is thinking that strangers on social media are worthy to give validation on anyone's Life???
I'm just thankful that she shared a part of her Life journey with us!!❤🤷🏽♀️
3 Masters!! Incredible girl!! Idk you but I'm so happy for you and your daughter 🥹💕
If she cannot change her eating habits it's up to her.. you cannot help someone who doesn't help her self
I've never in my life thrown a tantrum just because I heard something I didn't wanna hear. How do people get like this?
Enablers are a major problem. Lack of self control and self love, alongside people who want to protect them or look the other way. It always starts with childhood, disciplining kids is beyond necessary.
Addiction is a bitch 😭 it changes people. It’s no excuse, but it is a reason.
@@Zippy15 the brain and its chemistry is a fickle thing.
Having the camera on them helps, I’m sure.
I don't have temper tantrums but I do rarely get overwhelmed and end up sobbing. I wonder if her tantrum was about being overwhelmed?
“ I even walked a whole.. a whole department store” girl no tf u didn’t u drove through the whole department store😭
Exactly
I hate when they are harsh to Dr. Now
They act like they're doing him a favor rather than him doing them a favor. They aren't paying him a dime! I can't even imagine the amount of entitlement a person must have to get snarky and nasty with a Doctor who's giving you free treatment!! I couldn't be doctor now because if I was I would cuss them out
@@susanlett9632 You're right. And I think it's because so many of them see the surgery as a "quick fix" so even when they know they're overeating, they think it should be enough to just say that they're trying when they're obviously not doing enough to help themselves.
@@susanlett9632 LOL, right! I was like I would never have the temperament to be a weight loss doctor, because I would end up telling them some very hurtful things if they gave me the attitude, they give Dr. Now. Worst of all knowing they get this stuff for free, so unappreciative.
@@ncfo20 A lot of them go into it thinking that after the surgery they can still eat what they want, and will lose the weight automatically because at first, they will eat smaller portions, but then they go and overeat all the bad foods, throw up, then don't understand why they're throwing up, and not losing weight. 🙄It's not easy to lose weight, even with the surgery, it is hard! You still have to eat healthy; the surgery is not a fix all.
@susanlett9632 The show and TLC producers have screwed many people over and they want the patients to act like that because it makes the show more entertaining. Get back to reality. The reality is the show is entertainment
A long time ago, my mom told me "a dead mom is no good for her kids," and i didn't understand until I got so sick i had to be hospitalised. It scared me bad, but it was a good lesson to learn.
You had to be 'sick and hospitalised' to understand that?
@@wouternieminen844Yea that was my first thought
They kept the cupcakes in the refrigerator without covering them and put them on the dirty carpet in the back of the vehicle then took them to the school uncovered.
Seeing that really makes me glad that my kids school doesn’t allow home cooked items. All treats have to be store-bought and individually wrapped thank God.
Ditto!
I was thinking that myself ,God knows what landed on them 🤢🤢
lmao thought that too. so glad more agree
Like? How gross.
Same at my kids school and that’s why I don’t do potlucks either
“and i’m really trying” *immediately gets on scooter 5 steps away from the car*
Wow the personal trainer was so compassionate 😳 we don't have that in the newer seasons 😢
They don’t need compassion bro. Would you have compassion for a meth addicted fiend?
@@skunkycatogyou should… everyone needs compassion, you never know what someone has been through
@@skunkycatog Sounds like nobody has ever shown you compassion. Everybody deserves compassion.
Es gibt neue Staffeln ????? Aber nicht in Deutschland. Immer wieder dieselben Leute.
@@skunkycatog You can have compassion for someone and still hold them accountable for their actions.
She keeps saying "I hope I've lost the weight my doctor wanted" not "I wanted", which shows to me she is not ready to make a change.
An adult and a mother throwing a tantrum like that is truly sad to watch.
She had the trainer convinced that she doesn't think of herself, only her family. Who's she thinking of while she's shoveling food into her face?
I do surely agree, I must say...😃
@@movick5657
🤣
Betty crocker, aunt Jemima, chester Cheeto, Captain crunch, etc 😂
I was perturbed when she made it seem like she gained all of her weight just because she's a mother.
@@CaiJabari
Right. Mothers may gain some weight but that's ridiculous
“Physically I feel great” sure….💀💀💀
When I was in grade school back in the late 70s & early-mid 80s, one of the grade mothers was an enormous woman. She prepared & brought the BEST cakes, cookies, & snacks for our classroom parties & NOBODY made fun of her. We all loved her because she was so sweet & the best cook EVER!
👍🏾💯🤗🧁🍪🎂
Look how fast she walked out the doctors office though ? 😂😂😂
Right, I mean she was super pissed off 😡 when Dr. Now had told her that she haven't lost any weight
She probably never walked faster than she did out that door😅
"I'm going to fkn starve myself for two weeks to make everyone fkn happy"
5 seconds later "I'm done with this, I quit, I'm done 😡🤬"
I have never seen anyone less enthusiastic about anything!! True Sad Sack.
People often joke that Dr. Now's name ought to be "Dr. Later."
But in some cases, it's more like "Dr. Never."
She knows damn well she ate at least 2to 5 cupcakes while making them who is she trying to fool
Her storming out of the building was the most exercise she has ever done. 💀
I love how they lie about what they eat, but it is on camera. Don't know why they can't be honest about it. They are the ones who went to the doctor for help. If you don't want to follow the doctors instructions then quit wasting everyone's time.
Honestly, I have had patients that blame their continued lack of physical progress on everyone and everything. I will be patient with someone to help them reach their goals, but I cannot make you want to change. I can encourage....but at the end of the day a person needs to want to get better for themselves. And support can help, but again, ultimately, you have to want it for yourself.
Denial is pretty darn powerful.
And denial 100% fuels addiction unfortunately
😂😂😂
True sign of addiction ,denial
I’m with Dr. Now in this, he said nothing but facts about her
I remember my mom being on the thick side not even close to 600 but in 1st grade I was teased over it and I was angry with her the hurt in her eyes still haunts 40 years later 😢
Imagine paying that much money to just not give a f
She walked well enough when she stormed out 😅
No cover on the cupcakes?
Fr how did they survive that car ride??
I noticed too lol
That personal trainer was amazing.
These people are a trip. All they want is a quick fix it doesn't go like that with anything u gotta put the work in.
Stormed out? You mean she waddled out.
😂
&&& I bet 🤷🏾♀️That's the most dedicated she was to do something in a while
Don’t be mean
Yep,waddle waddle waddle.
I bet none of you would like if someone talked about you… is crazy … everyone isn’t perfect. Hearts are so cold!!
The mom over there with her head down and her mouth covered trying to keep the truth inside!lmao
Fries and hot dogs are probably not on the diet plan LOL!
It’s crazy how people think eating serving size potions is equal to starving yourself. My kids are the reason I keep healthy I couldn’t imagine not being a part of their lives because I was unhealthy. I have to be vigilant just to keep myself alive. I feel bad when people are so off the rails they’d rather orphan their kids than do something challenging
Part of the problem is that when people get that big, their stomachs are never full. Combine that with the psychological issues that drive some people to eat and become that big in the first place, you have a nearly insurmountable problem.
@@pontifixmax right. My point is they are going to have to go through those uncomfortable things if they truly want to get better. A lot of times they won’t get the mental health help to go along with it and unfortunately their loved ones end up having to carry the burdens and bury them. I just mean that if at all in my control, I couldn’t feel like a good mother if I put food before my kids having me in their life. And the kids suffer and follow the same path because it’s modeled as okay. I think this show offers surgery free of charge and if I was given a life saving opportunity like that, I couldn’t in good faith squander it.
You really got to give props to the cameraman for not snitching
😂
You can't help someone who won't help themself.
Was 280 pounds in august 2021. Used VLCD diet. Weigh now 174 pounds. I am a 5 feet 11 inch male.
Congratulations! Im also 5 feet 11 inch but im female. 168 pounds. 155 goal weight
@@snickerdoodles787 13 pounds. Not so far away.
Really liked the therapist. She seemed genuine. And she works out with her clients! 😎
If she stopped lying and took responsibility for her actions, then she might get her surgery.
Exactly I hate people who lies so much
Me too@@Nyc_drill_page887
Imagine somebody who is struggling to find food in the wild before grocery stores, and seeing somebody as huge as this woman is.
She looks at the hungry wild man dead in the eye, and says,
“Food is the enemy.”
Mind blowing concept
I love how people find ways to convince themselves that it's okay to eat so much food
Why do you love it? What an odd thing to say.
Changing habits is harder than most people realize.
Addiction is a hard thing to beat
It's an addiction. And a cycle. Whether it is a source of relief from abuse, or depression etc. And one regular meal, leads to several, and healthy portions etc. just like I don't understand people who do drugs, or habitually cheat but the reasoning is always to direct attention to something else. The brain is so very interesting.
😂😂😂 and have the audacity to get upset with the DR
When mom said I’m ready to get the hell outa here 😂
I’m sure her family supports her while orbiting around her.
She's making cup cakes for herself. She doesn't understand how thermodynamics work if she thinks people will believe she stuck to the diet.
No she made them for her kid class smh
@@NoName-ok8bqshe said for her sons class AND her family
Cry baby throwing a tantrum when she doesn't get what she wants
She is very immature.
She wants to be awarded, for what most people do everyday? My lord...🤦
She will not be missed. That waiting room was FULL of patients who are more than happy to put in the hard work.
That trainer is an amazing person.❤
Hello 👋 pretty lady how are you doing and the weather condition like
Start walking as well. Walking a good brisk walk everyday, make it your hobby,job,stress release, enjoyment. I lost 20kg, just walking and moving, mow the lawn, when you vacuum make an exercise out of it bend and stretch. Good luck
Just walking really makes a big difference. It's how I lost about 35lb. Then I got sick and gained it all back 😭
Not everyone can lose weight walking,unless they can walk fast.Walking is still good for the heart and it helps.
I might cheat here and there.... That's not cheating. . That's called still stuffing your face with crap. She is selfish. You don't say you are going to do it for your kid and then not do it. That's called lazy
Why did they have to explain FOUR, back to back, times that the son gets teased because of his mom’s size???
Make an effort and Dr. Now won't turn you down--Bless him for being a caring competent professional
One of my favourite episodes is where a patient put in the effort and lost 300lbs in a year and Dr. Now is so proud of him. The guy got surgery, he got excess skin removal and he is now a normal weight ❤
Stop with the lies. All you say is “I’m not ready for this.”
so proud of beautiful tara after her surgery,skin surgery&where are they now episode.she loss weight.her weight was in the 300’s.
She hasn’t tried at all with that weight She’s full of it
The reason they get mad is because everyone else in their life gives into them and makes excuses. They are expecting doctor Now to do the same thing and he doesnt. So they think he is the problem
Absolutely spot on with this comment 👏
Omg I thought she lost 50 pounds in one month and I was like “damn go girl” 🤦🏽♀️
It’s not Dr. Now’s fault that she doesn’t lose weight! What does she expect him to say????
Dang! She can really get up and go!
Today, during my strenght training routine I felt frustrated because I found it difficult to make burpees and other excercises. Also sometimes I very hard with myself when I eat some greasy food (my eatings habits are healthy, in general). After seeing this, I'm going to be more gentle with.myself and my abbilities. On the other hand, this lady needs to be more strict with herself.
Sometimes you have a sub-par workout. It just happens. I have no idea why. I’m thinking you’ll ignore it and move on.
All the best.
Shove less calories in & move more. Swimming is good as you’ll feel less weight.
I went from 430 to today 134.6 - it took 7 yrs and my primary exercise is swimming. At my heaviest it enabled me to spend more time exercising.
"Im not used to physical activity." Welp, outside of overeating, there's your problem.
In denial and clearly not serious about losing weight, she’s not even trying just lying!
Her rude behavior to the doctor tells me she knows she's lying to him
Im not who she was putting first when she ate herself to obesity. Not sure how her kids were first when she couldnt even go in their classrooms withoutnthem being bullied. Not sure who is first when she keeps cheating on her diet.
It definitely takes a special individual to go into bariatric medicine. I would go crazy with all the delusion. Not only are you a doctor, you’re a psychiatrist playing mental mind games!
Is any anyone else grossed out that they didn’t cover the cupcakes they just threw them in the back😂😂
They need to cover those cupcakes in the trucks trunk. They put them on the dirty floor🫣👀
Very very difficult situation when someone has issues that bad 😞
Did they just sit uncovered food in the back of the van???? Wtf
Even the person with her in the doctors office is like “gurl he knows you lying “ with her head down 😂
That was her mother
I really need to thank my mother for all of the time she spent making healthy foods for me!! I was never one of those kids who threw a tantrum in the candy or toy aisle.
You don't have to start doing heavy duty workouts. Just start walking around the block, next walk around twice and then walk around three times and so on.Just start walking. Nature walking is good for your mental emotional as well as physical health. You feel so much better taking these walks. Consistency is key. "Step by step life is a cinch, yard by yard its hard"
And I love to eat. Food is not my enemy. I just changed my diet and I love soup. It's all you can eat😂, so is salad.
She said she’s just gonna starve herself… maam does it look like you’re starving😭?! She needs counseling to change her mindset
Also why is it so hard for the enabler to break the cycle? If she can’t usually go to the store anyways, why does her enabler continue to purchase the bad food ?
She walked fast to the car
“I’m not used to physical activity” REALLY, you don’t say!?
She says she “cheats a little “, then eats bread and French fries, the two biggest
No-no’s.
Eating 2500 calories is starving yourself?😂😂😂. I still eat pizza, burgers, chicken, tacos...
She outright lied to the doctor, 'I walked the whole store', she rode a scooter! 'I did not eat anything I should not'. She had fries and hot dogs. She said herself she was cheating as she was eating it.
And then says oh fine, I will starve myself for the next two weeks.
She needs someone looking over her shoulder, helping her shop for food, prepare meals, reeducating her on food and the family. How to feel full, nourished, proud of herself.
Meal prep also so proportions are sorted. Most people are not taught an healthy way to look at food, many are grazers, nibbling throughout the day, some skip meals regularly which again is not good. Education is key.😊
Alot of these people seem to think that because they walk a bit more and didn't eat 10 pizzas for a day or 2, that means they lost so much weight. Just doing what you're meant to when the camera is on you, isn't enough to fool the scales.
Doc is like ok let's see the footage
She admits that she's not ready to move around as much and cheats on her diet then is angry at the Dr.?
Wow, someone is in major denial “I’m only 550 pounds, I feel great!”
It’s normal to like sweet things, but how about eating fruit instead. Also there’s honey or maple syrup. Put some honey on your fruit if you like it sweeter. It takes awhile to change.
Those aren't good. She shouldn't be eating any sugar.
Honey ain’t no good
@@jennibryan7275fruit is good for u
No. When I crave something, I just go for it.
Fruit sugar, I.e. natural sugar, is much much better for you. Also high quality honey. The cheap honeys are 95% added sugar and the rest “honey flavour”. Both fruits and real honey have vitamins, fibre and antioxidants. Don’t be afraid of sugar when it gives you something in return.
My Dad always told me there is only one diet that works. It’s called, “shut your mouth”. Simple.
