600 lb life-Robert’s Episode



Recommended Posts

Well? Has anyone seen this episode! Aired 2/28 I think!

:(

Bless Dr Nowzardan for all he does trying to help the super morbidly obese. I’m sure it’s frustrating at times but rewarding when he sees someone succeed and get their life back.

Yep, I saw it. How sad!

I loved Dr. Now's rant about pain pills being given to the morbidly obese to sweep them under the table. He's dead right and the medical community has got to change this.

Robert's mom and girlfriend had some obvious animosity going on. I'm glad they both tried to pull together at the end.

People don't understand how dangerous being obese is.

Yeah. Super bummed. :( I was literally just shocked! But you could see that he'd surrendered to the addiction monkey. I was shocked though that it didn't appear they were treating him for depression?

I didn't see the first part. So there were sparks between mom and the girlfriend? I thought it seemed like the girlfriend either hated him, or was at the end of her rope at the point that he passed?

And it looked like she put on a lot of weight after his death?

I thought it was a shame that he had made such good progress to end that way.

You would have thought it would have happened in the beginning.

I have noticed in the hospital I work at the last few weeks I’ve had three patients 350 pounds plus, I used to rarely see such large patients.

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
