My 600 Pound Life: 2016 Season



Recommended Posts

Okay tonight's episode with Chad:

Did anyone else get annoyed with Dr Now for getting mad at Chad for not wanting to take TWO HUNDRED DOLLAR A MONTH MEDICATION??

I mean, really? I wouldn't take it, either! I'm sorry!

But, Dr Now did say why didn't you let us know it was too expensive instead of not taking it?

He did. I missed that apparently.

you would think someone who was wanting to get WLS would have researched enough to know that if you can't keep food down then there is something wrong. I am glad he finally went to the doctor though.

Did anyone notice after Skin Tight last week that they were looking for participants? Would any of you consider the show? I'm not near my goal so it's not an option yet.

@@Daveo - Heck no!! Those surgeons appear to be hacks PLUS I would NEVER (no matter how much free surgery or how much they paid me) be able to show that skin on TV! How about you? If you were at goal (which still am not either), would you be game?

@@Daisee68 I've thought a lot about it and as of right now I would say no because I think they could do better at the skin removal. But once I'm at goal and see all the skin I might change my mind if I couldn't get it on my own depending on the cost! It would be a tough decision though because I don't even like my picture taken now. lol

I don't just want someone to hack my loose skin off. I want contouring and muscle repair so I can have a sexy, flat tummy. Those surgeons leave too much fat and skin IMO. I need a PS who is an artist and can see my body's potential.

my thought is maybe they will get so many complaints from viewers that they will do a better job! then I might consider it. lol but again, I don't think I could ever feel comfortable on TV showing all that.

RIght? I mean why would that guy go from MI to Austin, TX for surgeons who clearly are not experts as this? And did you just see his stomach which he said is swelling? That looked very odd to me....

Well the lady from tonight's skin tight actually looked good after hers was done. Probably the best I've seen on there so far.

No worries! Dr Now is so soft spoken it's a miracle he doesn't need sub titles ????

      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?

      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.
