The poor EMT’s who have to lift 500-800 lbs of dead weight deserve some kind of hazard pay. RIP their backs.
I know someone who is actually a paraplegic because she injured her back lifting heavy patients.
😂
@@904danielathat’s insane. Obese people are nothing but burdens idc what anyone says
@@tiffanywallace9305what's funny 🗑️??
Totally AGREE ‼️
Lying about walking the whole department and how much food she ate and then cry because she didn’t lose weight 😂😂
Right…because when she said that she walked an entire department store…. I was like the store that you jumped on the scooter to get around🤦🏽♀️
@@lIIIIIllll they are kids , it’s not their fault they’re kids to someone cares about food too much, we all watch after our kids to a certain age she’s not doing something new to humanity! And 2 days later she go on a scooter instead of actually watch after herself and walk 🤷🏻♀️
@@kimkeller2983Yep
"but I'm really trying" as she's stuffing hot dogs and french fries down her throat
She full of crap when they pull up to the hospital and she turns on the fake tears. Plus HOW.. can someone be sabotaging the process after her family is giving her their ONLY MONEY? I had this surgery done in 2004 and I would be embarrassed not losing wt in the process while everyone is watching!
That would be Tara’s story. S2E8.
I can eat a lot of hot dogs and fries without getting fat. Different ppl have different metabolism. Then again I exercise intensely once a week and pace around a lot and lift a few weights a few times a week but not much really
The thing is many of these people have had such bad habits for so long that they probably really can feel like they're depriving themselves and making an effort yet still be doing abysmally. I had to change my diet for health issues and it takes a lot of effort and commitment to break long engraved habits completely.
Exactly, if I donated to help and I found out she was eating junk, that to me would be a huge slap in the face
Everyone donating to her. Putting people out because she’d rather eat than live. She has to have crispy chicken instead of the grilled? She’s not trying at all.
My thoughts exactly! That to me if I donated would be a slap on the face
It makes me sad/angry that those who have donated have done so with sincere intentions. A pity she takes them for suckers by not trying.
Yes! Crispy has a lot more fat!
At least the first one didn't argue with him and was angry at herself, unlike so many of them.
I love how they blame fluid retention!
I saw one vid in which a patient was blaming fluid retention. Dr. Now says to her “You’re not 700 pounds of fluid.”
@@kristashafer93098in another one he said, “Did you drink an ocean?” 😂 Savage.
This is where I try so hard not to dislike all people who are this big, only on the fact most of them are sheer manipulators and addicts using people.
Mom has fluid retention in her legs bc of her lymphedema
The doctor said, 'You would have to drink 300 gallons of water to be that size."😄
All them people sacrificing and donating they hard earned money and you got the nerve to get a crispy chicken instead of grilled what the hell going on!
She showed more emotion insisting on a crispy chicken sandwich than she did in the rest of the clip.
yeah she was hell bent on getting the crispy vs. the grilled!!
@@Tim85-y2q 😂😂😂😂 right
I would never donate to that "GoGimmeFund". If someone I know needed help, I would give them the money personally. That site is filled with scammers.
I have never seen an "adult" overweight person. They are all children in a large body.
Dr. Now’s glasses are awesome! He’s direct, but he cares a lot.
“This is the longest trip in history “ as if she has a lot of activities she has to do but missed them. 😅
This is the LARGEST Fish in the market 😂😂😂😂 she said it herself NOT me
Yep
She's trying so hard, yet opts for the crispy deep fried chicken as opposed to the "healthier" grilled
I love the glimpse into the older seasons 👍👍
If they're immobile who's bringing the food
The first woman: After she finished that food, she grabbed her pillow and played Fat Joe's song, "LEAN BACK LEAN BACK". Her face showed sheer joy after that meal.😊
I hope that Dr. Nowzarian knows how much he is helping people. Even when he tells them what they don't want to hear. It's what they need to hear, whether they choose to listen or not.
Dr Now is a superstar 🤗🤗
Wonder if Dr. Now saw the chicken sandwich wrapper in the van.
8:37 She scootered a ehole department sore.
Yeah, she straight up lied to him about that!!!
@@yvettethomas5533Yep
Yes she did
"A little bit of lunch. We all need it so bad." as she horks down fried crap.
She’s 530 and I can’t help but think of Amberlynn Reid.. she’s really on the brink of being like this
Facts
Wall-E is coming to life
I was just thinking the same thing!
“Im trying really hard” im trying really hard too. To understand wtf is wrong with you
“ CRISPYYYY ! “
Liar, I walked the whole store, no you rode a scooter.
I especially love the ones like Erica who wants the help but has the attitude that if the nutritionist throws away her foods she will just have them delivered! I mean WTF,lol! I have no sympathy for those who want your help but lie or threaten him!ughh
I bounce around with my weight so much and i seem to say the same thing “ I don’t really eat a lot don’t know why I can’t loose weight” but once i get my eating in check and start losing weight you look back and come to terms with i was eating a lot of food
EAT LESS, MOVE MORE. PROBLEM SOLVED
Terra needs to walk not use her scooter she doesn’t try
How do they afford to eat like that ?
Welfare
I'm dumbfounded by the patient's Last Supper mentality breaking out on their way to see Dr Now - pulling into a Drive-Thru, ordering practically a Banquet (!) and polishing off the lot by the time they reach the clinic's parking lot. And they think they can fool the good Doctor?
I watched an old ep of "Dr. G, Medical Examiner". She had just finished an autopsy on another obese, dead, young person. She listed all the many ways that obesity will kill you prematurely and ended with, "I have never had an OLD, morbidly obese person on my table." I loved how she was so straight about it, not influenced by the idiotic "Healthy at any weight" or worried about being "fatphobic". Can't argue with statistics.
How is the first woman completely immobile at 530, but the second woman not even needing a walker at 550??
Must be the way they carry their weight
Lack of muscle/ will power. They have to get up and be physical in order to stay mobile at that size
Short and a wannabe victim.
Says she needs oxygen, pulse-ox is showing 96.
Year, oxygen is nice, makes stuff easier, she doesn't like the real effort without it.
people donated to her so she could pay for all that fast food they kept stopping for? suckers.
My doggy daughter is on a diet and I tell her “you’re not 700 pounds of fluid” , “do you look like you’re malnourished?” 😂❤ dr now is wonderful doctor
Penny doesn’t need oxygen
😂😂 and you're a doctor who has examined her, I assume?
@@charlie_says3841 he says she doesn’t either
When you cover all 6 seats in the back of a Minivan, you should be purged
This is a WEIGHT LOSS CENTER, didn't you see the sign?
Gosh these ham beasts having temper tantrums is an OSHA risk for dr now!!!
I just don't understand how someone can do this to themselves.
It’s so sad that someone has an addiction to food so bad this happens. They are judged and humiliated! Eating disorders are very real
Exactly. And addiction is an attempt to escape from deep seated trauma, often in food addiction specifically there's very often a history of sexual abuse/childhood trauma. People making ignorant judgmental comments when they know nothing about it. As if they are perfect too.
Makes me mad they need mobility scooters or think they do
They need to sign by the scooters that says these are for the physically disabled and the elderly, not the morbidly obese
For real
Meanwhile I have MS and when I had gotten out of the hospital and needed one (I almost never use them) I got yelled at by a huge woman decades younger than me because she said she needed it and I obviously didn't!
You're done with this? With what? Living?
It’s funny how when people be mad like that they really can move 😂
You cant eat all that shit! Lol
Do they make them whine?!
I don't think so. I think they almost all have the same mindset. They don't think that they eat that much when they cheat because they have no concept of calories. They think that they have been working hard, but they haven't been. Too many of them think that the surgery will fix everything. Most of these people need to deal with the pain that causes them to over eat. I wonder why he doesn't send them to therapy first.
@@cremebrulee4759 It's so aggravating. I have been approved for weight loss surgery and therapy was a requirement!
Have you ever seen the show, Dr Now always refers them to a therapist or psychiatrist and most won’t go
@@jenz3824 I have seen him refer people, but it is only after they have failed to meet their weight- loss goals two or three times. If he sent them as a condition of being accepted into the program, they could start working on their reasons for eating before he has them go on the diet. The therapist could also help them develop coping strategies for when they want to over eat. On the shows that I have seen, most of them go and usually get something out of it.
Here's the thing: if they're used to eating 30,000 calories a day they can literally half that and still be eating several thousand excess calories. Its possible for them to make a huge change and still not be making enough change.
This show is annoying with so many. They act like surgery will fix everything when they can only fix the problems.
No compassion from me. Self inflicted
Agreed!!
It's an addiction. Addiction is an attempt to escape from severe trauma. Most people with food addiction are the victims of sexual abuse and childhood trauma. You don't understand addiction,clearly, so kindly refrain from making ignorant comments about situations you know nothing about.
@@charlie_says3841 how do you know these people didn't have addiction?? I have multiple sclerosis that I was addicted to prescription narcotics for a while. And I was and am in agonizing pain even as we speak. They have the same problem I did no self-control. It's a CHOICE! MS is a disease. Diabetes is a disease. Addiction is a choice when it begins. GTFOH
They do not try to
Okay so here is a honest no judgmental question. How much of an effort is a person willing to put into taking back their health and making a permanent change. The mind has to accept that you the patient must be willing to put in the work. Making better food choices and moving the body. Get up off the chair and move. Weight loss surgery is NOT going to work if you do not own it and change it. I wish her the best but let’s wake up and be honest.
Hello 👋 pretty lady how are you doing and the weather condition like
water weight is always the excuse. sorry, but it is eating the same crap you always do. Dr.Now is no dummy.
"I'm just gonna starve myself for 2 weeks" lol Umm at yr size that isn't possible imao "I quit" lol
But guys guys guys the scales were wrong the first time!
Food addiction is as bad as drug addiction. It is is perhaps more difficult to stop because you need to eat something, but with drugs, you can completely stop them and still live.
Why are they enabling her
because they hate her and want her to die?
Enabling. And she’ll make life miserable if they don’t feed her
I think they should get therapy first, otherwise the alternative to their emptiness and unhappiness which has become their friend, will be too difficult to face, hence regression. Also if they were neglected as children, being looked after like a baby is fulfilling an unmet need. They must have therapy to mature.
She knows she pigged out
That's not as big as some of the others!!! They make it seem like she's the biggest person he's ever had she's actually low 5:30 the other people in there like 800 to 900 lbs , man get out of here
I wonder how much of that is it being season 2? Also just TLC's tendency to be weird
True I was like "What is she, 700", nope 530.
she's probably really short. for her height, she's about the same as some of those 800/900 pounders
But she is also short, so she has a very high BMI.
This is from the early seasons. Back then, it was absolutely unheard of for a human being to be 500 or more pounds and still be alive. "The other people who are 800-900 lbs" are episodes from 15 years later when the obesity epidemic is even worse than before.
When she got angry she nlved quicker... maybe she needs to get angry more often lol
Its sometimes hard to understand because many times I forget to eat en the result is that I realise at 23.00 in the eveing I totalely 0:06 forgotten all day to eat
Paula did awesome!!!
I wonder if morbid obesity is driven by social anxiety. It's a way to put up a barrier between yourself and others. You become isolated and dependent on just a few people. You don't have to interact with the outside world. Just a theory.
Couldn’t stand Penny
At least she walking now compared to the beginning I guess
The failure always falls on you when you eat the left side of the menu allllll the time
What is it with Americans and disposable plates?
It doesn't bother me so much that she didn't lose weight and was still overeeating, because most of the time these people struggle to change at one point and I can understand how hard it is to pull a 180. What gets me is that she seems emotionally stunted judging by that 6 year old temper tamtrum on her way out. She's way to old to act like that
Trying my butt...lay off the fries and hotdogs and for God sakes stop LYING to your doctor!!! Get upset at YOURSELF...
Dat t zo lastig is om af te vallen,snap ik ik heb zelf vaak dat ik de hele dag vergeet om te eten en eet pas wat om 11uur savonds
Penny looks has high as she needs to be!
1:57 to 2:05 Gurl, You act like you just went through major surgery.🙄 All they did was move you from your van to a bed. THEY LITTERALLY DID ALL THE WORK FOR YOU and you are groaning OWWW??? Sorry, I don't usually comment, but daaayyyuuumm!!!
If Terra could turn that negative energy into positive effort, she could lose that weight
Same size as amberlynn reid but amber can walk
All the donated money from family and friends for the first one seems to have been spent on fast food for the whole trip down. How do these people afford to eat like this.
Hi sweetheart I can imagine it's hard but pray and please stay strong your life does matter cheering for you you can do it your beautiful
Thats a lot of food what she is eating I’m shocked
I'm shocked all these people had to do was change their behavior and do what Dr now tells them to do
Why is there always such terrible background music?
It's the music on the show.
She just seemed high during the hole episode.
Just give me the left side of the menu
If you keep food as your god you will never be successful.
Yes. If the only things you can move are your elbow and your jaws, it might be time to consider "grilled" instead of "crispy".
Who was the first girl who wanted the crispy sandwich?
Why she go to Dr Now for surgery,, if she still eat food likes hamburger ,,, hot dog,?
THEY LIE
She weighs just like Amberlynn Reid. And Amber is a perfectly healthy gorl
Ya dign't qwalify for da weh loss surgry. You orberd a pwizza, a takeaway pwizza inta ma hospittle, stop pwlaying gemes wid me!
" The weight gain was such a shock"
Really Fatty McButter Pants?
Anybody else shocked? Don't worry I'll wait🙄🖕
I have a binge eating disorder
This is just oi personal ne of the especialland u am... i mean that's because there is A LONG HERIL OLC
its honestly a shame for these people because Dr. Now is not a psychologist nor a therapy and most of his patients would benefit from visiting one or both before Dr. Now...
He sends a lot of them for therapy.
I tried to sell Dr now magnets on Amazon if someone like it, I could give for free :D
😅 “We” needed that lunch bad. Girl you can live without it! Well maybe if ya stopped stuffing your face then you wouldn’t have to be on a 50,000 mile car ride to doctor Now who is just going to give you some attitude!! 😂
First
