My 600lb life

Anyone seen this on Quest Red?

The people always seem to be enabled by their partner/family, but then I guess if they were not around, they could still order pizza/burgers/other shite themselves.

It is heartwarming though, when you hear their stories and then how they turn their life around and lose the weight.

I was very sad about a girl who was originally from Chile. She was adopted in the USA. The adopted mother had a lot of issues and was in denial about being a lesbian and seemed generally unhappy. Of course the poor child thought it was all her fault. So she ate. The bloody woman told her the only reason she adopted was so someone would look after her when she got old!!! The girl said this was not going to happen and it was clear she did not have a good relationship with her adopted mother, however she loved her gran.

It showed up to when she was going to meet her mum but presumably will continue but I am sure I will forget it is on.

I have just realised this is not my 600lb life but is something else on another channel. It is a fitness guy called ?Jess or something. I have seen him before. Anyway I did enjoy it.

It’s a very sad show. You often see people who can’t even leave their beds, and their relatives are bringing pizzas and big bottles of soda. Some of the really badly ill ones wouldn’t be able to get junk food as they can’t even get to the door.

I like the doctor they see in Texas. He’s obviously heard every excuse and is very firm with them. Some of them have managed to lose the weight, but sadly you read a lot of stories about people from the show who’ve died. I guess the strain on the body is too much.

It's Fat:The fight of my life

I LOVE that show, I adore Jessie Pavelka! I so enjoy watching these shows and seeing them turn their lives around. I've seen the one you're talking about. Very sad but the girl did well.
