For those wishing to do some catch-up or binge-watching, or just some review of favorites, all episodes of seasons 1 - 7 are currently available to watch for free on TLC's website (and via their TLC Go app for mobile devices). https://www.tlc.com/tv-shows/my-600-lb-life/ Don't know how long this freebie will last, possibly just until the new season starts on 1/1. [Note that the free access is only to the regular season episodes, not to the Where Are The Now? episodes.]

For those (like me) who purchased the whole season 5 of WATN on Amazon, this episode has been added to the season, as the 8th episode. Received the notification email from Amazon this morning. Planning to watch tonight!

It looks like TLC is scheduled to 'tease' the new season tomorrow night, according to the info on https://www.tlc.com/schedule as of right now. Tomorrow evening at 8pm there is a new Where Are They Now? for Tamy and Karina, followed by a 19-minute 'first look' at one of the new stories for season eight, John and Lonnie. So, is there going to be a live chat here tomorrow evening for the new follow-up episode on Tamy and Karina? -

Here, here! Instead of my usual one meal (unemployment diet) I had two: french toast and turkey sausage for brunch, and a turkey wrap with a side of rice for dinner. Yum! I hope everyone in the US had a nice Thanksgiving! 😘 -

Yes, the WATN episodes are available on Amazon, for $3 per episode. This is purchase, not rental. There is also an option to purchase a whole season, which sometimes saves money depending on the number of episodes in the season. Here is the page; select the desired WATN season at the top: https://www.amazon.com/gp/video/detail/B00RYCU3KY/ -

Who wants to chip in and purchase a stack of these tee-shirts for the next round of poundticipants? [5XL size, of course.] 😄 😊 -

I'm surprised his blood sugar is dropping so low if his only 'cheat' is drinking wine, especially if it's dry wine (not sweet). I'm diabetic myself, and with the medications I've been taking for the past several years I can no longer drink alcohol, but before that, when I took another med that did not conflict, I could have up to two drinks in a day, of something like dry wine or scotch and water -- nothing sweet. But not every day; not more than once a week. I no longer get hypoglycemic since I switched off the med that was stimulating the pancreas to secret additional insulin. Your husband may benefit from a consultation with an endocrinologist -- if his primary care is managing his diabetes -- or checking with another endocrinologist if he already sees one. He may be able to get better control, such as by changing his med or type/amount on insulin if he injects. You may want to check into keeping a glucagon kit at home. It's common among parents of diabetic children. Sometimes they'll have episodes during the night, and the parents will give them the glucagon shot to bring them out of it. But with a full-grown man who might become physically violent, it may not be possible for a petite woman to get in close enough to give him the shot. Here is some info on the kit: http://www.diabetesforecast.org/2018/02-mar-apr/what-is-a-glucagon-kit.html
