God has decided James is not worthy of death yet, despite the heart failure, diabetes, sleep apnea, cellulitis, multiple-organ-failure, etc, etc, etc. Because LIFE IS MEANT TO BE ENJOYED!

Can someone explain to me what season/episode this is on WATN? I checked on the streaming services(Youtube, Amazon) and it's not there. Is this a timed-exclusive for TLC GO?

You could see this result happening a mile away. Kelly by this point had no desire to change things given the heart condition. It was too late. Amazing this thing though. James K has been in heart failure for 3+ years and he's still kickin. Go figure.

We only see what's edited in the show. How do you know that Dr. Now doesn't have them speak to a nutritionist off camera to go into details like food diary, getting a food scale. I'm pretty sure the paper he gives them talks about those things too. Remember the producer has to keep things snappy & entertaining.

Nah, nurses are simply professionals are not there to coddle adults scared of needles. If you're 30+, you should not act like a sissy when it comes to doing the blood draw. I was Brandon's age when I had my first blood draw as an adult and I did not make a fuss. Since then I've probably had 20+ and yes it HURTS every single time.

Lisa is the devil incarnate, but the low-rent version.

I wonder how long before the sister will be in need of Dr. Now's services. 😈 Also Karina is now dating Gilbert(Lupe's Story):

Honestly Brianne was not very entertaining. #1 - not bed bound #2 - no festering weeping OW MAH LEGS Bring on more James K, Steven Assanti and Penny!

My newest joy is listening to the audio of 'Ow Mah Legs' on loop.

That guy pushing Brianne's wheelchair at the airport looks like he'll be needing his own in a few years... God fuck, how many obese fuckers are there anyways in 'Murica?

This was easily the most boring episode to date.

If anyone's interested there is an 'Ow My Legs' compilation on youtube.

Can't wait! I saw the trailer for season 7 and it's going to be EPIC! Dr. Now has seen the worst of the worst so far with the likes of Penny, James K, Steven Assanti, Schenee and Lisa! He's ready for all the reggrolls and excuses. THE SCALE DON'T LIE.

I also like that scene when Steven is calling up his dad and telling him to stop for food and threatening if 'something happens to me, you'll be sorry'. Then Assanti Sr. says 'welcome to real Steven'.

Kirsten is such a peach! I like how she barks orders to her son Nico - 'bring me my cane!". No please, no thank you. What a nice person. So deserving of being cared for.

Tattoos are cool on yakuza.

Lee - "I can hardly pee", Dr. Now - really? Dr. Now to James K - "you don't need food, you have already eaten 800lb of food in you" Penny(to EMTs)- "can you carry me above your heads like Cleopatra? Teehee." Lisa(re: James K) - "his body doesn't burn calories"... LOL Nicole to her family just shortly later - YOU BUNCHA BASTARDS!

I'm agnostic. However if such a divine being existed, I'm pretty sure Schenee is on her own regardless. I'm with Al Pacino's Devil on this one. God is up there laughing is ASS off at us little ants struggling on our little ant hill.

The actual worst part of the show was the beginning part when they had to 'bathe' James. That meant we had to see his underside which looked like some kind of burnt ham. I can't get the image out of my mind!

My favorite moment(ep 14) was when Dr. Now got Steven in front of a mirror and compared his leg to an elephant, saying he didn't even look human. Dr. Now can be a real savage! Steven is a complete waste of oxygen, but I guess the producers think he's ratings gold.

Lisa is just straight up gangster in this episode. That smirk she gave Dr. Now near the end when she finally admitted to sneaking in the food. Who does she think she's getting away with, other than helping to kill James faster? At this point, James is literally like a hard-core meth addict and Lisa is his supplier. Amazing how adult protective services could do nothing because Lisa wasn't literally shoving the food into his mouth. Disgusting people. What's Lisa going to do? Put strychnine in Dr. Now's coffee? She's only a danger to James and he has it coming. When you're straight up gangster like Lisa, anything goes. Her pimp hand is very strong. Especially when James need his reggrolls.

Agreed, but then the show would not be as entertaining. Remember, Dr. Now's practice is 98% not these people. His son Jonathan Nowzarden is the producer and I'm sure he's the one really deciding on these train wrecks for ratings sake. I mean wow, take Lisa(James K). She is a textbook sociopath. Makes for excellent television!

Erica is a strange one. Started out as a potential worst case ever and ended up pretty decent. Some people just need a big enough kick in the ass.

Don't worry folks, there are more than enough 600lbers in the USA to support making this show until Dr. Now is done.

I can't believe James 'ow mah leg' is still alive! Apparently he's going to have another episode. I can't believe how he tolerated those cellulitis bubbles when they first appeared. You would think that would be a gigantic wake up call to radically shift your lifestyle, no? I know I'd be an blind panic if even the hint of a cellulitis appeared on my body. I agree with what another person here said some time ago. James is pure Id(look up Freud). He only lives for his animalistic pleasures. He's like King George IV, wallowing in his own filth as everyone around hopes and prays he dies.
