[Maggienolia]

OH MY GOD!!!!! He IS a lost Assanti brother!!!!!

[shouldbedancing]

This guy annoys me because he says all the right things but he doesn't mean any of it.

[Kid]

That damn scale is wrong again!

Melatonin?? That's a supplement. Did she mean Metformin (for diabetes)?

I take melatonin to help me sleep, definitely a harmless supplement 

[ChickenLatte99]

How much did he weigh?

[ams1001]

People on that many drugs should really keep a list on them for when they wind up in a hospital.

Well said.  Nailed it.

[Miracle Maxie]

How many minutes is his compliant patient act gonna last?

842 lbs 

[skippy]

This guy is such a con artist.  I only take Dilautin "when I exercise".  Like he gets any exercise....

842. My god. 

[zoemom]

Dilaudid for pain only when he exercises, yeah right......  

"Whatever you want me to do doctor", sounds like another Lisa.  When the scale said 842 lbs. "he says that can't be right".  He keeps saying"Yes doctor, that's all you're going to hear from me"

Sure.....pretty bad when Dr. Now says this is one of the worst he's seen in a long time.

This is going to get ugly when they cut him off the pain meds and his food!

We give to our chronically ill patients in the hospital, those patients on hospice, or comfort measure care. If people request it by name...usually not a good sign.

I know of dilauded because that's what Reed was addicted to on Criminal Minds.

I agree. Obviously they made the drug for a reason. I'm was just noting that people who are walking around talking about being on Dilaudid usually have a drug problem. 

I missed his weight. 842 pounds? Wow. He doesn't look different from a lot of the other patients, but maybe it's different in person. That's pretty darn big.

I know someone who's dad was dying of lung cancer, who was on Dilaudid. 

I once got a shot of it in the ER after breaking my wrist.

Because he’s a drug addict.

[DC Gal in VA]

Hey everybody, long time no snark! Really missed you all while this show was in hiatus.

Uh oh, 842 pounds!? That takes him into "Ow, Man Laygs" territory, aka St. James.

In his case, it's Picking Cake Over Salad, not really a hormonal disorder.

[Snarkastikate]

Sure he's all full of positivity now....; yes Dr, that's ask you'll hear from me!"'  Yeah, he's stuck full from the 10 orders of fries he just ate.....but wait till that 1200 calorie a day diet smacks him upside the head.

[Emkat]

How long will this Mr. Nice Guy persona last?

I have put my gummy bears back in the pantry.

[Guest]

Why is Dr Now asking them to list Robert's drugs off the top of their heads? Don't people on that amount of prescription medication usually take the bottles with them? The bottles that contain the proper dosage directions? He should have asked to see the bottles. UGH. 

Oh, public service announcement: the thread for The 685-lb Teen (the show that TLC is airing at 10) can be found here.

Ironic, that they're showing an ad for the weight loss drug Contrave.

One of the guys topped 1,000. The one that did crafts with his mommy like a five year old.

I know of dialudid because of this show. I once had a shot of morphine because I was having a nasty episode of gastritis (which has nothing to do with gas and I ended up having surgery later). I can't imagine having it all the time. I'd never be in my right mind.

[QuinnInND]

Geez they're going to do they Skin Tight show again next week?? Ugh.

You know I'm actually surprised he weighs that much.  He seems to have such tiny arms and legs - and not much chest.  It's just that enornous pendulous gut.... No, he's not the biggest, but he may be a runner-up.

I just don't understand their nakedness.  Get some blankets - sew them together - my gawd - DO SOMETHING to cover yourself up.  Disgusting.

He's not nearly as obnoxious. (So far.)

This. 

Also, hi.  I missed most of the first hour.  Is this guy Assanti-levels of awful, or is he just sad?

[Miracle Maxie]

He had more pain killers in his system than anybody Dr Now had ever seen? Even Steven? Dude IS a lost Assanti!

[shouldbedancing]

I hope she's drinking that iced coffee

[zoemom]

The fiance is suffering from delusions.

I don't believe a word that he's saying.  He's asking for pain meds just after trying to pull himself up. Seriously?

I feel he's not going to last for a minute once he gets his own place with the fiance.

Edited March 1, 2018 by zoemom

[Emkat]

I thought he was cutting off his pain meds?!

[JudgeyMcJudgyPants]

His pee looks like apple juice.
