My 600 Pound Life: 2016 Season



Recommended Posts

Okay tonight's episode with Chad:

Did anyone else get annoyed with Dr Now for getting mad at Chad for not wanting to take TWO HUNDRED DOLLAR A MONTH MEDICATION??

I mean, really? I wouldn't take it, either! I'm sorry!

But, Dr Now did say why didn't you let us know it was too expensive instead of not taking it?

He did. I missed that apparently.

you would think someone who was wanting to get WLS would have researched enough to know that if you can't keep food down then there is something wrong. I am glad he finally went to the doctor though.

Did anyone notice after Skin Tight last week that they were looking for participants? Would any of you consider the show? I'm not near my goal so it's not an option yet.

@@Daveo - Heck no!! Those surgeons appear to be hacks PLUS I would NEVER (no matter how much free surgery or how much they paid me) be able to show that skin on TV! How about you? If you were at goal (which still am not either), would you be game?

@@Daisee68 I've thought a lot about it and as of right now I would say no because I think they could do better at the skin removal. But once I'm at goal and see all the skin I might change my mind if I couldn't get it on my own depending on the cost! It would be a tough decision though because I don't even like my picture taken now. lol

I don't just want someone to hack my loose skin off. I want contouring and muscle repair so I can have a sexy, flat tummy. Those surgeons leave too much fat and skin IMO. I need a PS who is an artist and can see my body's potential.

my thought is maybe they will get so many complaints from viewers that they will do a better job! then I might consider it. lol but again, I don't think I could ever feel comfortable on TV showing all that.

RIght? I mean why would that guy go from MI to Austin, TX for surgeons who clearly are not experts as this? And did you just see his stomach which he said is swelling? That looked very odd to me....

Well the lady from tonight's skin tight actually looked good after hers was done. Probably the best I've seen on there so far.

No worries! Dr Now is so soft spoken it's a miracle he doesn't need sub titles ????

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
