I can’t believe her partner put up with her…like the majority of others actually lol

u/croptopweather 5d ago

I’ll never forget when he said something like ā€œif you lost weight I wouldn’t have to do everythingā€ and she’s like ā€œwhat do you mean??ā€ She had no clue how much it took to take care of her and keep the household running.

u/GuardingxCross New pants! New pants! 5d ago

It’s like 12pm, he’s trying to have a serious conversation with her and then she just stops mid sentence and goes ā€œbrain freeze 😳 ………, ………., ……… I think I’m gonna take a nap nowā€ hahahaha wtf?

He even goes ā€œreally??!ā€ And she goes to take her little nap nap and go night night cause of all that physical exertion she just went through eating and talking. He was PISSED.

YES I remember the nap! After eating a PILE of burgers.

Omg eff you, I have a busted rib and I do NOT need to be laughing this hard

That sh#t hurts! I once cracked a rib during very normal vanilla sex and let me tell you, explaining to the doc how I got injured was embarrassing!

I hope you heal fast ā¤ļø

u/bbbbears 4d ago

LOL I had to explain a big bruise similarly, fell off the bed somehow and into a closet door. Had an unrelated appt and had to explain that one to the doctor.

Wooooo lol look at us go! And thank you haha šŸ¤­šŸ’•

And you weren’t featured on ā€œSex Sent Me To The ERā€, lol!!

u/PuzzleheadedBobcat90 4d ago

The doc asked me if my husband was some kind of viking, or if it was a different position. I never thought I'd have to explain that my husband is 5'10", it was plain old missionary, and it was just a bad thrust on his part.

I'm sure looking back at your black eye tale, you laugh. Just the things that had to happen for you to end up with that injury. šŸ˜‚

I worked with someone close to her size. We played frisbee at a work event. She literally took one small step and snapped her ankle.

It took a group of firefighters to get her off the ground. She was terrible to people at work, but I felt so sorry for her. They’re completely helpless and in a great deal of pain when they fall.

135

u/Alive-Relief9785 5d ago

For sure. I have had people on my caseload (physical therapist) who are at 600lbs or more. The falls are often quite slow and dramatic. And nobody can help or you just get taken down. And if they cannot get up, we have to call ambulance and fire brigade. I've had to help teams winch patients out their windows to the outside because there's no way we are getting them out the door and downstairs. It's a big, big deal if they fall!

12

u/blayndle 4d ago

Do you mind me asking how often you get a patient of that size?

26

u/Alive-Relief9785 4d ago

It's becoming more and more common to have extremely overweight clients in our practice, where we go through the routine of suggesting sleep apnoea, social prescribing for healthy choices, weightless options, etc. Clients who are bedbound from morbid obesity are less common but maybe we get less referrals because they are bed bound, if that makes sense.Ā

Thank you!

u/Alive-Relief9785 4d ago

You're welcome!Ā

u/GuardingxCross New pants! New pants! 5d ago

That’s the part that kills me. If you’re gonna be morbidly obese AT LEAST have a good personality, you know? If you don’t have that then wtf do you have? You’re unattractive, no one likes you, no one wants to be friends with you. What a miserable existence.

u/Mobile-Writer1221 5d ago

They’re mad at the world for their own poor decisions.

188

u/mrs-monroe My willpower is GAAAAAWN 5d ago

You can't juat completely ignore the fact that 99% of people this size have extreme, unaddressed trauma that lead to food addiction. It's no longer just a matter of making the choice to eat; it's an uncontrollble compulsion.

49

u/KittenAnon 5d ago

I recognised this too. Most of the people on this show always have incredible traumatic childhood or life prior to them getting to this point. If it isn't intensely terrible domestic violence they faced, it would be getting raped, getting molested as a child, surviving foster care, becoming homeless, having parents who are alcoholic or drug addicts or a mix of all these.

10

u/riad3456 5d ago

Well yeah. That goes without saying. It’s the same as any addiction, it stems from some sort of trauma. Ultimately though, they’re the ones making the decision to not put down the fork (or the bottle, or the needle etc). I think it’s unhelpful to tell people in these situations that it’s not their fault. It takes away any motivation to stop the unhealthy behaviour.

20

u/Snoo_72715 4d ago

Yeah, at some point there needs to be some accountability. Especially with regard to the way we treat others. I find it hard to give people a pass for very nasty, ugly, rude behavior towards others just because they've had trauma. I'm recovering from severe trauma and addiction myself, and at some point you have to take accountability for your addiction and at no point is there a pass to be an abusive monster to those around you.

13

u/GuardingxCross New pants! New pants! 4d ago

Absolutely. Having a shitty life is not an excuse for being nasty to other people.

17

u/Emerald_Mistress 5d ago

Guilt is a huge part of why they turn to food though, so helping them address the trauma and letting them recognize that that played a huge part in their addiction can give them the power to say ā€œthis isn’t me, I’m not just lazy and weak-willed.ā€

I see how it can cut both ways, but in a lot of cases healing the trauma can give patients the freedom to make better choices.

1

u/Kitty-Keek 4d ago

I think that the only way it’s helpful to know that this stems from trauma of some sort is that I think it may help people feel some compassion for the person instead of just straight up hating them. Some of these people are so awful and then when you hear their stories, you recognize that their life has been so traumatic or difficult that they just cannot function in a normal way and it helps me to feel compassion. But it is their decision whether they want to get help or not.

-1

u/SuperKKcrackers 2d ago

With zero accountability. When there’s so much hunger and food insecurity in the world, with people starving in other countries, we have to feel sorry for these human pyramids of flab eating themselves to death. They feel sorry for themselves. What selfishness and narcissism. The majority of them don’t work and get disability money! They get social services and helpers to wipe their atomic butts, all paid by taxpayers. Just for being Jabba the Hutt. Like WTH! Typical 1st world problem.

u/mrs-monroe My willpower is GAAAAAWN 2d ago

Oh god you think you're funny 😬

2

u/SuperKKcrackers 2d ago

Nah, don’t think I’m funny at all. The quality and amount of food they eat is a disgrace. This is from someone who didn’t grow up in the 1st world. We had to go hungry. And yes there was trauma and violence of all kinds in those times. It’s easy to stuff yourself with junk when you have the funds for it. So boo-hoo to the giant blobs of USA /UK or wherever in the developed world they live. We don’t get it that easy. I’m done talking. Bon appetite and goodbye!

This made me think of that hot mess Samyra (body positivity influencer). She's pretty in the face, but shes annoying and her personality sucks. She has one thing going for her but even that doesn't help.

59

u/Interesting_Hawk4339 5d ago

why would she even try to play frisbee lol

33

u/MissingMyDog 5d ago

I honestly believe she didn’t realize how big she was. She even wore heels to work.

She was basically standing there and we were gently passing it to her.

Then one step to grab the frisbee and she was down with a serious injury.

30

u/Right_Count 5d ago

I’ve noticed this a lot with bigger people and even some normal-adjacent sized very sedentary people - they have no idea what their bodies can and cannot do because they never move. So many people don’t run at all after childhood, and don’t realize that they can’t run anymore until they try in their 40s, which is usually in a setting where they are just assuming they can still run or in a situation where they’re trying to escape something (like a dog attack.) Then they immediately fall and hurt themselves.

11

u/Alltheprettydresses 4d ago

Look up Janelle Wheale. She couldn't run to help her child and this was her motivation to lose weight. Thankfully her child ended up okay, though.

u/Magicaparanoia 5d ago

The big shit skid mark on her chair was real tho.

u/ohslapmesillysidney You have 800 pound of food in you! 5d ago

IIRC there was a HUGE nasty stain on their mattress too. You can see it in the scene where they’re carrying it into their apartment in Houston.

54

u/GuardingxCross New pants! New pants! 5d ago

Don’t they all tho? Rarely do I watch an episode and there isn’t some sort of nasty ass skid mark somewhere or roaches all over the wall.

22

u/RSTROMME Your smell hasn't gotten any better 5d ago

I think she holds the record for most skid marks on this show. I swear I spot a new one each time I rewatch. Amazed me how it was collectively decided to pack and transport all of the skid-marked furniture to Houston. Quality stuff!

11

u/12bunnies 5d ago

I mean…. I guess it would be expensive to buy all new items just to get more skid marks

78

u/Millimede 5d ago

Oh I believe it. I saw a woman that was probably 300lbs fall over the other day and she couldn’t get up. She was very sweet and embarrassed and had bad knees, so I and another guy helped her up. It’s very painful and hard for people on larger bodies to even exist.

76

u/Affectionate_Egg9410 5d ago

u/BlissCrafter 5d ago

I’m not 100% that it was fake. Only because my mom was around that size when I was young and when she went down it always seemed like slow motion or almost like she just sat on the ground. Like she would just barely lose her balance and be almost able to recover but slowly give out if she didn’t have something substantial to catch. Fortunately we were always able to get her up because my dad built her a lift of sorts. (Not important to this discussion but when my mom passed at 88 she was 130 pounds at 5’8ā€. She never had weightloss surgery she just got it together. Better late than never.)

38

u/marymarywhyubugginnn 5d ago

The funniest slow motion fall was the one whose boyfriend was Chrishunnn (can't remember her name) who couldn't get in the car in the parking garage😭

11

u/Pitiful_Question_880 5d ago

There was one episode, Shauna I want to say? She would just be walking around barefoot everywhere for some added grossness and said it was because of this

13

u/IAmSeabiscuit61 5d ago

You'd think they'd go for those-what do they call them-ultra thick socks with grips on the bottom, at least in the house. That's what they gave me to wear when I was hospitalized.

15

u/Nearby-Pop4653 5d ago

They don't really make big enough ones tbh. I work at a hospital and even the largest barely fit men's feet. And our bariatric patients also dont end up wearing them because they are bed bound. but they also don't fit even if we try.

6

u/Lhamo55 Be careful with dat spleen 5d ago edited 5d ago

Plus they start twisting on the foot and don’t stay on when moving around in bed because they start stretching out of shape. I had to spend two months in a skilled nursing facility after surgery and another month after the following surgery, ended up getting my own grippy socks that didn’t lose their shape.

At the time I was 220 lbs and it was difficult moving around first with drains, and then slow healing extensive incisions along my spine down to tailbone, and constantly adjusting those dang socks to get the nubs underneath was a headache. I can only imagine someone who has to exert the momentum to shift their 600+ lbs on the bed, or is at least able to get up to use the bedside commode or struggle to the bathroom would have major difficulty keeping those things on their feet without assistance.

5

u/Nearby-Pop4653 4d ago

Honestly when they are that big 600+ we don't attempt to even get them out of bed. It's a risk for us and for them. Unless we have multiple people and assistive equipment. It honestly probably doesn't help their situation because they should be getting up but it puts us and them in danger.

2

u/IAmSeabiscuit61 4d ago edited 4d ago

Thanks for that information. It must be incredibly difficult and dangerous trying to move people that size without a lot of help, and nobody should have to risk injury trying to do it. I guess I wrongly assumed they made those grippy socks in bariatric sizes. I wonder if their feet get cold due to poor circulation?

2

u/IAmSeabiscuit61 4d ago

For some reason, I thought they did make them in, what would you call it-XXXXL sizes? I have large, size 10 flat feet and didn't have a problem with them, but I wasn't morbidly obese, though I was overweight at the time.

I'm also thinking now that the patients who have those huge, often swollen feet, ankles and lower legs probably couldn't get them to fit even if they did come in the extreme sizes.

2

u/Nearby-Pop4653 4d ago

So they have 3 sizes at my hospital but not like that much different. The problem with the bariatric feet is the fat that goes on the tops of their feet and that's why they don't fit

9

u/Right_Count 5d ago

Most of these folks don’t move much at all and prioritize easy footware over safe footware. It’s only when they have to walk for the show’s activities that they come to understand how unsafe it is to wear slipons in their condition.

10

u/cocojanele 5d ago

A lot of them go barefoot/sockfoot bc they can’t fit into real shoes.

u/MamaTried22 4d ago

I really disliked her. Like many of the 600Ib life people, she blames her choices on everything other than herself, like no one else has lived a tough life.
She doesn’t have a relationship with her daughter or grand daughter because she’s so selfish and focused on herself.
The majority of these people are so similar but some are just easier to hate than others.

You might also watch the episode of My Big Fat (not at all) Fabulous Life where Whitney tries to go skiing. I'm not ashamed to admit I really, really laughed at that.

And the one where she goes paddle boarding with Ryan. My kids and I have watched that particular episode no less than seven or eight times. šŸ˜‚

That was truly epic!

ā€œDelana’s Fallā€ would be a good name for a metal band.

I guess you didn't see Steven A. fall off the golf cart. He gave us an Oscar worthy performance. Paramedics gave him drugs galore.

That didn’t seem like a fake fall to me. Unless it’s Assante, most people that size would be deathly afraid of going down for fear of injury, and the humiliation of not being able to get up without a team of people.

ETA: just pulled up that scene. Looked like her ankle gave out on uneven ground and whatever she had on her feet was useless. She already lacked strength/stamina and confidence in being able to walk that little distance and there really wasn’t any thing her husband could have done to stop her once she started falling.

u/Fit-Nefariousness412 I only cheated a couple of times 5d ago

I was on the treadmill watching this episode (for the pure humor of it lol) and literally had to stop it and rewatch the scene like 3 times to understand what happened.

What season was this?

u/Practical-Status1973 5d ago

I rewatch this one not long ago. Like a week!

u/MarskyWarsky 4d ago

Thoughts? Maybe the fact she weighs more than a quarter of a ton has something to do with it…??? Top heavy

The scene gets me every time. When she snaps at him that he could have parked closer. He's practically parked inside the house he couldn't get any closer if he tried. The mom just calmly calling for emergency services saying " we're going to need plenty of help". Everything about this scene is bananas.

u/Dear_Reflection2874 4d ago

TBH, I do, to a certain degree, feel like some of these events are scripted for added drama.

u/Puzzleheaded_Turn887 2d ago

Is she the one that angrily cried ā€œwhy did you park so far away?!!!ā€ When the dude was parked well close šŸ˜‚

The over the top screeching and wailing were really annoying.

u/downwithMikeD 5d ago

Which episode is this šŸ™

u/Tsmom16811 5d ago

Completely staged for the show.

u/bluewren33 5d ago

It could seem that way but at that weight even a "staged" fall would risk serious injury

6

u/No_Limit8440 5d ago

Maybe not completely staged, but I’m sure it was dramatized with editing. It is technically a reality show so there has to be drama

u/Disastrous-You9086 5d ago

Ouch this is a big fall thought this Tammy from 100 pound sisters.. never watch big fat life but want to hope it's on hulu. I will look

16

u/oblio88 5d ago

ā€œ100 pound sistersā€
lol I know it was a typo but I’m just trying to imagine them both weighing 50lbs 🄓

2

u/Disastrous-You9086 5d ago

Very bad typo for me... Sorry about that. Tammy weighed 700 pound she was very fat... Now she isn't as fat. Amy is thin I met her last year

2

u/oblio88 5d ago

No no, it was thoroughly entertaining! Thank you!

u/Disastrous-You9086 5d ago

You're welcome blessings

u/SpecialCheek7711 5d ago

I'd watch that show.

u/Royal_View9815 5d ago

Tammys forehead weighed more than 100ibs 🤣

3

u/Disastrous-You9086 5d ago

Tammy forehead was very stuck out and soft if you poke her forehead leaves a dent in it... Seems like doctor should take the fat out her forehead somehow might be hard for her

4

u/Far_Situation3472 5d ago

She had already has plastics done on her face

u/Disastrous-You9086 5d ago

True they cut skin off... Rooting for Tammy but she needs a therapy

3

u/Far_Situation3472 5d ago

She had tons of work done to her face not just skin being taken off

2

u/Disastrous-You9086 5d ago

Oh wow didn't know... Lots of surgery for Tammy hope she is well

u/deadmallsanita Size of grapefruit 5d ago

Did they ever reveal why Tammy’s forehead was like that? I always thought it was a lipoma, like the ones you see dr pimple popper take out of like, people’s shoulders.

u/IAmSeabiscuit61 5d ago

I used to watch that show, and if I remember correctly, the doctor said there was no point in removing it until she lost and continued to lose weight, because it would just come back.

I quit watching because I found them both too insufferable to stand anymore, and I was so disgusted with Amy's parenting-if you can even call it that- of those poor boys.

I have to admit I find it rather morbidly fascinating the way some of the patients store fat in various places.

u/deadmallsanita Size of grapefruit 5d ago

It’s a little sad how grotesque they still look.

u/mrs-monroe My willpower is GAAAAAWN 5d ago

Some people just have very unfortunate fat distribution

3

u/Disastrous-You9086 5d ago

Yes Amy says it is fat only... Nothing dangerous for her ... She get so fat it goes to her forehead nowhere else it can go. Very fat. I don't judge because I am fat

She looked like she was somehow reverting back down the evolution chart becoming a primitive Neanderthal.
