mellowjoi February 23, 2018 Share February 23, 2018 This was a difficult show to watch. Lisa was never a good candidate for bariatric surgery because she's looking for the miracle worker that helped Helen Keller to walk through the door and fix her. I will admit, visualizing Annie Sullivan slapping Lisa does make me smile. Lisa has zero accountability. She blames her weight on food but not that fact that she chose to eat the food. I have a question regarding the fire department that helped with Lisa's removal from the home. They were actually putting supports under the porch. Did they determine this on a previous visit to the home? Why wouldn't the homeowner be responsible for modifying the ramp considering it wasn't an emergency removal. Are floor jacks and wooden beams standard equipment on fire trucks? 8 Link to comment

She made Penny and Steven Assanti look like sweethearts in comparison. I don't think Herburt had any interest in what the nutritionist had to say. He probably left to go to the Piggly Wiggly to get more ice cream, donuts and pizza rolls so Lisa would keep providing "services" for him. Just typing those words makes my skin crawl. I'm always amazed how so many of these women get boyfriends/husbands. Granted very few of them are charmers. How many kids did Lisa have before she was 20? Guess birth control was another thing she chose to ignore, or pehaps she figured out early that she would need some "caregivers" for her down the road. The whole family looked so relieved when she was leaving in the ambulance for Houston, I can only imagine their disappointment/dread when they heard she was coming home unchanged. 20 Link to comment

Are floor jacks and wooden beams standard equipment on fire trucks? Well, we are in the Deep South and you know what they say about our hospitality. This is just an example of it. Our local First Responders generally have great community outreach and provide services for members of the area who can't afford to have things done for them that affect their dwellings. Heck, sometimes even their vehicles. I would say that the MFD personnel were on their day off and volunteered their services once they were asked for assistance. They'd have scoped it out and brought what they needed to shore things up. There are local businesses who have great reputations for providing supplies for them to use. For example: recently, an elderly veteran was a victim of a home invasion. They damaged his home and he lost his gun to one of them. Within a few days, his home was repaired with donated supplies and a local pawn shop gave him a replacement weapon. Once TLC or whomever contacted the city for help, I don't imagine it was hard at all to get the help they needed. 14 Link to comment

I always wondered if there was explicit pre-surgery counseling to make clear to prospective patients what the surgery actually does and how your life has to change in order for it to be successful. I used to work with someone who had the surgery and lost a ton of weight, but within about a year he was back to drinking sodas and eating fast food, and when I last saw him a couple of years ago, it looked like he had put the weight back on. On the show, it seems pretty cursory (here’s your new 1200-calorie diet and you need to lose X pounds over the next month), but I wondered if there is actually more education/counseling or even therapy required, and we just don’t see it on TV. It seems like the people on this show frequently are surprised that the surgery just prevents them from eating much at any one time but doesn’t stop their cravings. Congratulations on going through that. It doesn’t look like easy at all. 4 Link to comment

Popular Post gardendiva February 23, 2018 Popular Post Share February 23, 2018 Lisa’s ER rant is one for the ages. It’s like she has zero self awareness. After a 6 hour ambulance transport to Houston, consults with Dr. Now, a nutritionist, a counselor and a physical therapist, she began wailing that she needs help and nobody is helping her. Then after she gets put in a private room, she begins bellowing about her “stress, anxiety and depression”. When Dr Now asked her why she didn’t share this with the counselor, she said she “keeps things to herself”. Seriously? I haven’t seen her keep anything to herself.

SunnyBeBe February 23, 2018 Share February 23, 2018 (edited) That's just it. Lisa was evaluated by mental health professionals multiple times, but, apparently, she's competent. She may be a narcissist, have obsessions, etc., but, she's running the show in her house and seems quite content to do it. I just thought about how when Hubert went shopping, she would have been in the apt alone, unable to get out of bed. That's pretty risky. If there was an emergency......I guess she's been lucky about that. Did you notice those weird facial expressions she gave when she didn't like what someone said?

Trees February 23, 2018 Share February 23, 2018 (edited) Here's what makes me nuts. The topic of this program is very fascinating: extreme obesity and the psychological reasons why it happens, how it continues, and the medical implications of living that way and possibly making a change. It could be a MUCH better show - infinitely! But the producers or whomever seem to have written an outline that every episode will follow and they never deviate. In fact, what would be much more interesting would be to see more of what really goes on behind the scenes. We know, for instance, that Dr Now holds support groups. It would be great to see the subjects attending those and reacting. Clearly, there must be more education about the diet than that piece of paper he hands them. Every single episode, though, he gives it to them, they pretend to be surprised by this (THEY'VE NEVER WATCHED THE SHOW?!) and it looks like he sends them off to miraculously lose 50 pounds in 2 months. If, in fact, Dr Now and his team truly wanted to help these folks, they'd be screening and educating the entire family and team of caregivers. Those folks did not become morbidly obese all alone. Their enablers are as sick as the subjects are... addicted to being needed. The whole team - the patient and all the folks stuffing them with food - are ill and need extreme behavioral and psychological testing. I've even started forwarding as soon as I hear those long commentaries begin, especially when I hear the word "because...". It's going to followed by "if I don't, I will die!" or ".. this is my last chance!" or whatever. With such an interesting topic, why must they stick to this narrow script and outline? It's such a waste. Edited February 23, 2018 by Trees 24 Link to comment

Popular Post AZChristian February 23, 2018 Popular Post Share February 23, 2018 We finally watched it last night. Wow. Just wow. At the end when the REAL Lisa showed herself to the camera, I lost any modicum of compassion for her. She doesn't want to change. She just wanted the attention that the show gave her. I know about being an abused child. "My mama never said she loved me, but she made whatever I wanted to eat to show me she loved me." Well, good for you. At least your mama cooked food you loved. I was abused, and rarely even got a birthday cake because my birthday is close to Christmas, and "it was too much trouble to make a cake." As far as food, "Here's dinner. Take it or leave it. Just one serving. I don't like leftovers, so I didn't make extra." (No chance of being a fat kid at our house.) And the whole time I was growing up, she looked the other way while her live-in sexually abused me. And you got blamed when your brother died? I got blamed for EVERYTHING that ANYBODY in our house did (5 kids, so somebody was always misbehaving). I was #4 of 5, and the first one to finish high school. I worked my butt off to get this woman to even be nice to me . . . but it was all wasted effort. But did I choose to become a maggot-infested blob who couldn't even wipe her own backside? No. I CHOSE to be better than my beginnings. I CHOSE to make sure that no kid I ever encountered felt inadequate. I CHOSE to be the best person I can be. I CHOSE to work hard so we could have a nice home and take some nice vacations. And even now - at 71 - I CHOOSE to be joyful every day. Is life perfect? No more for me than for any of you. The joints are creaking, the old gray mare, she ain't what she used to be. But I get up every day and say, "What CAN I do today?" Never, "I can't." One takeaway I had from this show is that most of the family seems to be financially controlled by Lisa. The one daughter said they were afraid that if they didn't do what Lisa said, she'd kick her and her sister and their kids out of the house. But then Lisa said the daughter had applied for a job as a teacher. (I'm wondering if they're using the job-description vernacular of Judge Judy litigants: A "nurse" is an aide in a nursing home, and a "teacher" works in a daycare center.) The son appeared to have a job and plenty of money to drop on triple bacon cheeseburgers, fries, and milk shakes. This one is at Penny levels of behavior. Sometimes, even the doctor has to say, "That's it. You know what the program is. Your drama isn't working on me. You've been given six months worth of intensive help, and YOU are choosing to be dropped from the program. I'll call for your transport back home. See ya." 56 Link to comment

My friend had it done. She has to constantly be cognizant of what she puts in her mouth all the time. And how much. And if she eats too much or eats the wrong thing, she gets very sick. Yet she still has to get her calories in and she still exercises just as hard as I do. All the surgery did was drop the weight off of her. It is up to her to keep it off and she works very hard at it. We have another friend who had it done and she's gaining weight. She doesn't get it. Keeps asking my friend why she's gaining weight. We know why. She posts enough on Instagram for us to know exactly what she's doing. She eats crap and sits around. The surgery will fail for her because she expected to get it done, eat whatever she wants, not do any exercise and lose weight. That's not how the surgery works. 11 Link to comment

She is just one vile creature, in every way. If I was signing up for PTV today, my handle would be Maggot Infested She Devil. 13 hours ago, Kid said: BINGO!!! I thought the same thing. By the end of this episode, I came to the conclusion that there was absolutely nothing wrong with her mother. Her mother wasn’t an enabler which is why she had a problem with her mother!! You see how she reacted when she could not get her way with Dr. Now. I agree with this. Her father idolized her and spoiled her and never said no. Her mother, not so much. Over the years, in Lisa's fevered, self pitying brain, her mother became the source of All Bad Things. Her bad, evil mother who never loved her enough, boo hoo. That whole story with the cake was bizarre. Her mother made her eat the whole cake, that's why she's tipping the scales at 700 pounds now? Its cake, not heroin. 13 hours ago, zoemom said: I'm always amazed how so many of these women get boyfriends/husbands. Granted very few of them are charmers.

I'm sad to say I'm only just now learning how to spot them to avoid them as much as possible in my life, and that I'm lucky enough that all the ones in my family have passed on. 5 Link to comment

AZChristian February 23, 2018 Share February 23, 2018 I just checked McDonald's nutritional(?) value online. The two burgers, two large fries, and a shake equal over 3,000 calories. Bear in mind that this is AFTER she eats a huge plate of eggs, rice with cheese and turkey sausage for breakfast, and who knows what for supper. PLUS, she admitted to having 3 meals a day IN ADDITION to breakfast, lunch and dinner. She is easily eating more in one day than she should be eating in a week. Sorry. I just can't feel sorry for her. If your life sucks, change it. And take a vacation with all the money you'll save on food. 12 Link to comment
