Dashing Off April 13, 2017 Share April 13, 2017 I think the whole "balloon face" thing still being an issue, is just a result of all the loose skin they got now. 2 Link to comment
SkinnyMinnie April 13, 2017 Share April 13, 2017 (edited) Why is she in an ambulance? Lupe can't fit in a car now? If she's pregnant, Gilbert is fucked. Edited April 13, 2017 by SkinnyMinnie 4 Link to comment
Barb23 April 13, 2017 Share April 13, 2017 Re: Lupe & bed pan. She could also use a bedside commode. It was a God send when I broke my leg. Oh no, now it's going to be Lupe & "mah hip." (Ha ha, spell check typed out Hippo instead of hip) 7 Link to comment
Armchair Critic April 13, 2017 Share April 13, 2017 Lupe lounging on the stretcher like Cleopatra (more like the Queen of Denial), she must have picked that gem up from Penny! 6 Link to comment

Lizz April 13, 2017 Share April 13, 2017 Nice to see y'all! Hi Mom!! Apparently, once you hit 500+ pounds, all modesty and shame go out the window. Lord, the makeup on Lupe. Gilbert may be an a-hole cheater, but he gets credit for all the wiping, bathing, moving, and I guess he does everything in the house. The fact that he feels romantic after all that is amazing. 8 Link to comment

Why is she still using a bed pan???? (Well I know why) she should be able to use combo of wheelchair & walker to get to & use bathroom. They showed her taking a few steps in hospital. They got portable commodes. I had to use one in the ER while I was hooked up to a bunch of machines (you haven't lived until you've had to pee behind a curtain with a bunch of people on the other side). I don't know if Lupe would fit, but she's lost weight and is a bit more bendable. Maybe she would. Plus, I bet they have plus size commodes. It sure would be better to have a commode that needs emptying than to deal with a bed pan. Plus, it would get Lupe sitting up and moving. 5 Link to comment

Armchair Critic April 13, 2017 Share April 13, 2017 My favorite story was the first Melissa. She didn't have sexual relations with her husband for years but he kept cheating even after she lost weight and they were having an active sex life. I can understand Lupe's dilemma, how many husbands are you going to find who will wipe your butt for you? But I think Gilbert will probably always cheat so she should save herself and start walking instead of playing helpless to get his attention. 11 Link to comment

DC Gal in VA April 13, 2017 Share April 13, 2017 I don't mean no harm Dr. Now, but didn't you see Lupe's RIGHT FOOT abnormally turned. Maybe she's got a reason to be scared to stand or walk. 4 Link to comment

kittyinthecity April 13, 2017 Share April 13, 2017 They do have such round faces!

It's so true. I was at 331 pounds when I got my gastric sleeve done last May/2016. I carried my weight pretty equally throughout my body (I'm 5'10") and a lot of people didn't realise I was so heavy and told me I "carried it well". Today I'm 194 pounds!

kittyinthecity April 13, 2017 Share April 13, 2017 I wonder if there's a higher risk of pain med dependency in these sorts of patients - for one, it can replace the food addiction. and two, many of them seem to be dealing with depression that the pain meds can help them zone out from. 3 Link to comment

I also weigh more than people would guess, I am not pear shaped my weight is evenly distributed. But watching this show definitely scares me out of letting it get too far out of control. My boyfriend, daughter, (even my mother), would tell me to get out of bed and wipe my own ass. ;) I still marvel at how people like Lupe find a husband who willingly signs up for that.
