TV Show My 600lb Life



Recommended Posts

I just saw 2 episodes of the tv show 600lb life I never seen it before. Have you seen the show??

I been so pumped starting my weight loss journey last week and finding this forum. I have to be honest watching that show got me depressed and I'm not the type of person that gets depressed. I'm doing something now before it gets worse. I love to hear about the success stories.

I used to watch that show before I had sleeve gastrectomy surgery. It made me cry because I was turning into what I feared the most... Being a huge person with a food addiction! But after I was sleeved 6/14/16, I don't watch that show. I have lost at total of 72 pounds. I was 300, today I am 228. post-256625-14776326609997_thumb.jpg post-256625-1477632677329_thumb.jpg

Lol! The show is good to a point, what scared me before having surgery was what if the doctor says I gained so much weight and he couldn't do the surgery. Some surgeons can be very ugly to patients. But that wasn't the case I had my pre op appointment a week before June 14th 2016. Anyways, keep watching the show, you will start changing your habits. I know I did.

Watch Fat Doctors on YouTube. I like it better (though there are no current episodes). It shows a lot more about the actual surgery.

I sometimes watch it with my kids so they can also see what poor eating habits can do.

I always feel like that show makes me want to diet lol I really enjoy watching it. I really like seeing people succeed, but it is definitely a reality check because a lot of them use excuses to keep eating too much or they have issues with the spouse due to the surgery

I haven't watched it. Is it following people or a person who had weight-loss surgery?

Yes each episode is a 600lb man or women they follow from preop to post op. It's sad but most of the time has a good ending not always. It's a real show not a reality show.. check it out

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
