Does anyone else watch this show when they are feeling down or weak?

I love that show (except the one with the brothers) it is like driving by an accident on the road. You have to slow down and watch.

Watch it all the time then you tube it lol.. watched a marathon my 600 lb life on the weekend.
You notice how they always seem to come from lower socioeconomic areas or are very poor?..



They look for "drama" as it makes better reality television.

I just started watching again, and it is definitely a reminder of what not to do, and how easy it can be to overeat and eat the wrong things. What I'm not enjoying is how they've changed to show to cut off the story line with the patient's results. Obviously this is because they want us to watch the "follow up" show, but I'd rather hear about successes before the end of the episode!

Wait! You mean you didn't know that after WLS you couldn't eat 15 pizzas?????????

Steven ... I wanted to smack that kid .. the disrespect and dysfunction in that family.. I thought I was watching Maury.

Lol



I like Fat Doctor UK better. Better Doctors, they seem to actually care and having feeling and emotions. The patients are more realistic.

The people on 600 lb life are like aliens. Just because of their lifestyle and choices. They are always surrounded by so many enablers, if seems like Bizarro world.

Plus I low key hate Dr Now.

I watch a lot of documentaries and BBC specials on food, fast food and sugar when I need motivation to stay on track.
