If you are in the UK the link will just work, and you register with the website. In the US it gets a little more complicated. Step 1: download the web browser Google Crome Step 2: Go to Hola.org to download the Google Crome tool called Hola Step 3: Set your location on Hola (the smiling flame next to the URL bar) to the UK Step 4: Go to the website below and it will ask you to register with the site and it should work http://really.uktv.co.uk/shows/fat-surgeons/watch-online/

I downloaded it for Firefox. It works great. Thanks !!

Man does Penny have a lot of problems...I felt bad for her husband but in the same token he is enabling her...I think he needs to show tough love...its not like she can get up and get her own food....he should have made her eat healthier..I just hope she can get through this with help from professionals...

The Penny episode should be a reminder that this is not easy and we need to be in the correct frame of mind going into this. She was obviously cheating but the cameras did not show it. Early on we see that was given soda bother husband out of a giant Subway cup. There must of been other instances of cheating while filming. What bothered me the most about her was that she was lying to herself and saying how hard she was working for her son. I feel bad for the son when he watches this episode years from now and realize why he lost his mother (if she didn't change her ways).

I have decided to add a shrink to my team for surgery. They have you see a guy once for 20 minutes to confirm you are a good candidate but it couldn't hurt to see one on a regular basis to make sure your entire house is in order, not just your body but also your mind and perhaps for those who believe your spirit.

CubsWin -

Good luck on your date. I remember my last week of what was Normal.

Tonight I saw a bunch of people I have not seen since last June and some did not recognize me. My date was 10/18 and I have lost almost 80 lbs. The weight is coming of very slow right now (1lbs a week), but that is ok. I see my Dr and NUT in a month so I will see what's up then. Obviously Im not worried as it will give my skin a change to tighten up a little.

Good luck, if you have any questions let me know.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
