Have you guys watched this episode ofSean, the heaviest man in the world. 919lbs. Omg, i hate watching this because i complain about the 100 lbs i have to lose while these people have been trapped in a body truly of their making . Dr.naw, is looking like wth. And the growths that they have. I count myself on the luck side.

Watching My 600 Pound life was an important step for me to be brutally honest with myself about my weight and health. Unfortunately, I was just one diet away if being eligible to be on that show. Much of what the people on the show experienced due to their weight is not unfamiliar to me.

Now, each time I see an episode, what stands out to me changes depending on where I am in my own journey.

With all of its flaws, watching My 600 Pound Life has been a very important part of my journey.

My Big Fat Fabulous Life, although infuriating, has also been enlightening.

I totally agree. It's very important to never forget your past, and how easily the past can be repeated. I refuse to utter the words "such and such pounds lost forever!" No forever is ever guaranteed.

I see myself in every 600+ patient. It doesn't matter that my highest weight was 248. I am them and they are me. We all required surgical intervention in the end.

Complacency is the fast track to failure.

      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! 😞
