The whole family needs therapy. The dad has anger issues, the mom seems manipulative and you can see the damage it did to their daughter
Yep
Yes but it’s time to stop using excuses. She’s fat because she chooses to be fat. Nobody stuffed food down her mouth but her. She’s not a child any more time to grow up
👌
@@deborahchapman2130 Its not that easy. If it was I wouldnt be fat hahahaha. Im not that big, but I am overweight. The struggle is real
@@trude_in_adelaide I am overweight , too but I don't use excuses .I am now eating healthier , staying away from junk food and losing weight . It can be done no matter the other circumstances in your life
The crazy thing is they know they are being filmed. Imagine how they are when there are no cameras around very dysfunctional
Nah usually reality shows make every little argument a huge deal for the sake of drama. Else it would be normal life and most people don't like to watch normal life.
I can see that both could be possibilities very easily
That’s what I was thinking
She said she was afraid of him as a child.
i could never ever ever ever be on reality tv, much less my own family. we'd be a trainwreck. idk how her journey ends but regardless i think she's very brave for showing all of this, and i hope she grew past such a toxic environment eventually.
I think psychotherapy should be mandatory in all weightloss cases.
bmilprncss22 I think it is prior to surgery in the non televised cases because when I was thinking about doing it. I had to do that, see a nutritionist etc.
Especially since all these lawsuits are claiming they didn't get enough help
I had to see one before mine. And I still see one after it.
bmilprncss22 They make it look like a single therapy appointment but there are obvious time limits on tv. You do hear therapist occasionally refer to follow up appointments. What I don’t understand is expecting someone to go from a 10,000 calorie intake a day to 1200 without major work with a dietician.
Dr. Now has sent many people to therapy, especially if they seem to be unable to make progress needed to approve the surgery. A friend from work ad surgery done and she had to have a psych eval before she was approved. For what it’s worth, she had her surgery five years ago and is still doing well, but she had great support from her family. These people don’t appear to be helpful to each other.
When the mum told her to go get something to eat, everything made sense.
That mother is a real peace of woek😮
Her mom is hella Enabling her
I can hear it in the fat woman's voice. She has that soft, shy, meek voice. You can tell she's spent her whole life shaking like a leaf, scared to set her parents off, and shoving food into her face to try to make that anxiety go away. Food gives her 15min of relief from unbearable anxiety. She's not bipolar. She's not mentally ill. She just needs to be surrounded by supportive people, like an in-patient program. A fat camp for adults! A rehab facility that isn't for drugs or alcohol, but for obesity.
I think a lot of these moms secretly enjoy having daughters fatter than them. Unfortunately, people can be really competitive even with their own children.
It's real easy to sit in a chair and tell everyone else what to do while everyone waits on you hand and foot ! Do you ever think about how hard it is for your old parents to have to take care of you when you act like a 3 year old ! I'm sure theirvtired of taking care of you ! Your negative about the whole thing your talking yourself out of the whole thing ! If I was your mother I would go home to ! Grow up and start helping yourself ! You might as well go home cause you have a bad attitude and won't make it ! Stop making everyone miserable and blaming your family ! It's called TOUGH LOVE !
I love it. Tells her mom she doesn’t want to talk about it, the mom continues to instigate, and then runs out of the house when the daughter finally starts arguing with her
Good point!!!
Let's not forget that this woman is responsible for every pound that's appeared on her body. She needs to grow up and stop acting like an entitled brat!
But you say Nothing how the Daughter left the room As She Asked her mom a question but her Mom left the House because the Daughter Jumped Up out of her Hissy Fit Bed to be Rude and Get in her Face during a Phone Call to Prevent her from getting the info through Anyone but Her. And that's a Narcissist.
Talk about tunnel vision
Wake up
Much love 😎🍀💙🙏
@@irish327rose5 Couldn't agree more.
Gary Mcguckin okay boomer
Her Mom is a horrible person. "Go make yourself lunch and leave me alone." Hmmm. I wonder how she got fat. The Mom is supposed to be there to help her lose weight and is sabotaging her by trying to force her to eat her feelings instead of go to therapy.
That girl is baby it's her own fault she needs to grow up and take responsibility
@Mansoor Haque society makes it cool to be soft and have exscuses
This woman is old enough to make her own meals and she should be the one who should be there for her mom.
Elizabeth LovesYT Just like a lot of dysfunctional families who are now seeing themselves through this series...thanks TLC🥂🧘🏽♂️
@@kongvinter33 #munchausensyndromebyproxy.
That Mum is a bloody nightmare. I can see why there are so many issues in the household...
That mum is every teacher I deal with there the worst things to deal with. there in denial about everything and ignores you instead of fixing it and the god dam fake smiles I thought are parents said don’t talk to strangers while the teachers acting like strangers
"...she doesn't want me to talk about my bipolar disorder...." because when your child is ill why not hide that fact and prevent her from getting help, good grief Irene, she needs to get away from that family.
Why the fuck wouldn’t she tell her therapist she has BPD?! Why is her mother bullying her out of therapy? This is some trash parenting right here.
Well it depends. In this case it's on tv so there's no point in hiding it. However, it makes sense so keep certain things a secret so they aren't used against you later on in life, such as a custody hearing.
@@kerianpearson9796 BPD is borderline personality disorder, not Bipolar Disorder.
@@kerianpearson9796 it can be a reason insurance denies many things or even refuse to cover you
All she needs is the right support system her family doesn't seem motivated at all and its sad that she has to rely on food to deal with her family's bickering i wish her all the best and i hope she gets through surgery
You said, "Her family doesn't seem motivated and she needs a support system." The mother literally uprooted her entire life and moved to Houston for her daughter. I'd say THAT shows the mother is *definitely* supporting her daughter's goals!
Not as easy as that. First, her family does support her, even though they obviously have problems and her dad has anger issues. Two, family support isn't enough to be successful in losing weight, it's more about her will power, her work, her choices, her working through her own psychology issues
Get real. All she does is avoid answering anything and whine no one hears Her.
Much love 😎🍀💙🙏
Gary Mcguckin jesus do you hear yourself? People get to that size because of emotional trauma and disorders, not just because they want to. She recognizes her problems but they’re only gonna get worse if she doesn’t have a stable support system.
*She's* not motivated at all. She had them all uproot their lives and move to Houston so she can lose weight, and all she's doing is laying around doing nothing but eating fried chicken skin. I don't blame them for being cranky at all, although they shouldn't be enabling her like that. If you spoil a brat, don't be surprised when they end up a grown up spoiled brat.
The brother seems like a genuine person and is trying to help his sister
I feel like her brother is the only one who cares.
yes her brother seems great
OMG this poor girl. No support system at all. Her family is so selfish & screwed up. I hope she gets the help she needs to stand up for herself.
She's an adult!!!!
@@kaylahudder6905
Yes, and?
A stable support system still helps as an adult.
She's gonna need it all right, in more ways than one! If you get my drift!
Stop blaming the parents ! After all these years their tired of helping her when instead of her helping herself ! She's a whiner ! No one can help her cause she won't help herself ! I only watched her for 10 minutes and I was tired of her ! They moved her and all her junk while she sat on her big ass and whined !
@@karenspeidel1901 Your name fits you right
The mother is so very scared of her daughter having any level of emotional intelligence. Scary.
What kind of mother doesn't want her child to get the best help possible which in this case involves therapy!
Seems like the mom was afraid that if the therapist found out certain things the surgery would be off altogether
@@StillJustDreaming but if those are valid concerns for the surgery then they need to know. If she does have a mental disorder that is going to mess with her sticking to her diet regimen then she could seriously hurt herself after surgery.
I agree, if she really is bipolar, proper treatment could really help with her weight loss
Mine, lol.
Bipolar has nothing to do with potentially sabotaging weight loss surgery outcomes. This mother is masking other issues that someone in the family has affected Lacey through.
You know, sometimes, it's totally necessary to cut off both your parents. Both of mine were very toxic and they made my life hell. Then I left. Now I'm doing a lot better. It's hard, but it's much easier to do things yourself than to go through stuff like this just for the sake of "having a family." Real family doesn't hurt you or work against you to see you fail. 🤨
Yes!! I feel like this isn’t said enough. Sometimes it’s the best and healthiest thing one can do for themselves. I’m so proud of you.
It is. And I have. Or I’d be dead now.
Same for me with my mother. She is abusive, toxic, narcissistic and bipolar and I left her and two ofmy brothers over a year ago because I was taking a lot of abuse from my mother. I now am 23 and have been living with my best friend and his family for just over a year now. It’s been great and I am thriving. I couldn’t do anything living with my family. My siblings deny everything and never once stood up for me like my dad did, my best friend also stands up for me. He knows my situation and takes great care of me. Getting away from family and on your own is great.
Yes, yes, yes. Omg yes. I lost my mother decades ago at 18. I've made my peace with it. However my sister is a toxic person who's also a hypocrite who blames everyone and everything when she screws up.
I'm so much happier without her in my Iife. It's not easy, but we can choose our friends, not our families.
Live your best life, don't blame others for your own issues and cut toxic people who really don't want you to Iive your best Iife, out of your Iife. ❤I wish you all the best. 😊
I feel like she has to babysit her family emotions more than her own. All about making sure they are not mad than what she needs. Looks like she needs to cut contact so she can concentrate on what she wants and not be hypervigilant on her family.
Mom: stop running to your room! We need to talk! I hate when you run to your room! Girl: tries to talk mom:runs out of house
I was just going to type something about this
It’s sad she can barely breathe. She needs to do this for herself.
Breathe or stand
I agree. She is very quick to make excuses
🌰🌰🍞🍞🍞🧀🌰🍞🌭🌮🌮🍚🍚🍚🌯🍗🍖🍖🍔🍔🍟🍲🍲🍿🍿🍲🍱🍱🍠🍦🍝🍛🍡🍥🍥🍤🍣🍣🍙🍘🍕🍘that is what she' s eating
The thing is, I used to make excuses too. Weight loss for me is very hard becAuse I have PCOS and I’m still working my ass off and have lost some weight. If I can do it, she can do it.
I hear many on this series saying they need to do this-- for their kids, grand kids. You have to want it for yourself.
the daughter seems so kind and caring. she’s been put through so much. she’s thankful for her dad helping. i’m only a minute in.
Who doesn’t want their child or someone they care about to get therapy if it’s something that could help change their life significantly for the better? The mom is extremely selfish and only wants her to get the surgery ASAP so she doesn’t have to stay with her any longer than necessary which is so sad.
Brianna D The mom is selfish? Are you nuts? She tells her daughter she wants to talk to her about it and she goes to her room and says leave me alone.The mom can't get any information from her so she calls the doctor herself and then gets asaulted for that ! Hell yes she doesn't want to be a caretaker for the rest of her life.! She wants her life back!!!
Aubrey Askew that’s not what I was addressing at all. Neither of them have any communication skills which is more reason to GET therapy. And that’s what I was speaking on, if the mom doesn’t want to take care of her daughter then that’s her choice, she doesn’t have to and shouldn’t have to “give her life up” to take care of her obese daughter forever. However, are you really going to act like the mom trying to force the daughter to get the surgery done and NOT the psychological help that the doctor is insisting on isn’t ridiculous? Come on now...
Weight loss isn't achieved by surgery alone. You need to change mentally, which is really hard to do by yourself. I think therapy should be necessary for every one going thrpugh weightloss surgery tbh
Brianna D you’d be surprised. My own parents denied me therapy for years, it took me being hospitalized (also for a weight issue, but the other extreme) and them being threatened by CPS to get me therapy. And even after that, they pulled me out as soon as possible and didn’t let my siblings get therapy either. I can sort of understand why they didn’t want any of us in therapy; they felt like they failed as parents. Letting us get help would be, in their minds, admitting that they couldn’t support us like we needed. Also the fact they need help too and had been denied it their whole lives as well. The first time I asked for therapy, dad said “that’s not the Miller way. We deal with our own problems”.
Denial is much easier. No one wants to see their loved ones suffering. That’s what I assume is going on here.
Aubrey Askew the mom is clearly suffering from some sort of mental illness, if the daughter learns about that stuff she wouldn’t be manipulated as easily by her mother.
I just got done watching this episode and is so proud of lacey. Despite her manipulative mom she was nice the whole time and was a fighter. I'm glad she actually stuck to her diet and kept losing weight. She really deserves it.
Did she and her mom make up?
Same. I saw her IG and she looks great. Still working to lose the weight off.
She was making the right call and her mother just sabotaged her. How awful. While not ideal she is setting herself up for success. Poor girl.
The self awareness this young lady had to realise she needed to tackle her mental health issues before she tackled the surgery is something to be applauded, not punished. Her family reminds me of my own family, and trust me you don't have to hit a child to leave a mark on them. Those emotional injuries need healed too.
Sooo, what you want mama? Do you want your daughter to “talk about it” or do you want to tell her to leave you alone and run out the door? 🤔🤨🙄
I will never get over her mom insisting hiding a medical diagnosis from a doctor. They have to know these things dude. Smh 😝
Wow she said go make yourself some lunch and live me alone. No wonder her daughter uses food to cope with things. Dad seems to have anger issues, mom seems to have a short fuse. Brother seems cool though very helpful !!!
Tamara C. her parents are probably like that because their daughter weighs 600 pounds lmfao
@@aidancav The daughter is 600 pounds probably because her parents are like that 😏
Why does she think her daughter couldn't get surgery because of bipolar disorder? That's crazy to me
This poor woman I want to give her a big hug. She needs a loving family.
The dad has anger issues and her mum is manipulative. I mean look at how it has impacted their daughter.
You really had to blur out popeyes?? Lol
Right. We can all clearly see its Popeyes. However, who orders chicken and no side dishes? No corn, no mashed potatoes. No biscuits. It's not even a whole meal
Ms ivibeBlk I was looking for the side dishes too. Can’t go without the yummy sides 😋
@@ladyofthecentury She got a box of biscuits. That's what the 3rd smaller box is. You can see it by the brother at 3:27 .
@@jalv509 oh wow. There's 1 side starchy side.
They’re not trying to pay anyone that don’t have to
Being bipolar has NOTHING to do with the viability for surgery. Speaking as a bipolar disorder sufferer.
If her bipolar depression causes her to overeat, then viability for surgery should be questioned.
Emotional eating is real.
Exactly. I think what she's really worried about is a diagnosis making her look like a bad mother. Not like she isn't already doing that herself
i dunno.... if she tends to overeat badly in either state, that could fuck her up big time if her stomach has been shrunk. its dangerous to get a bypass if you have unmanaged overeating tendencies
Don't let family or friends or anyone ever hold you back from getting where you want to be in life. Never give up
Really how about thinking when you get better do good to those who you've abused for years while being a food addict.
She moves pretty good for her size.
She knows that she’s not ready...the wise thing is definitely to deal with her issues first.
3:05 I cringed the hardest. The way she came in and sat right down with the food + the double "uh huh"
Mike Nice me too
"That's the way, uh huh uh huh, I like it, uh huh . . ."🎶🎶🎵🎶
Sorry, couldn't help it.😁
I honestly can't believe this. This is my family! None of us are 600lbs, but the dynamic is the exact same. Completely toxic. One of the hardest,but best choices I ever had to make was cutting them out of my life. I am so much better off now, and I honestly think she would be too. Best wishes honey. You deserve better. ❤
This is sad ... toxic families are the worst.. keep your head up as well🧡
same...dad is narcissistic and mother is an enabler
Feel bad for her, having parents or household members like that can be beyond damaging to one's mental health
Boredom is a big cause of overeating. So sitting around all day doing f... all doesn't help
There are lots of bored people sitting around due to the global COVID-19 pandemic. And the more they sit around, the more they will eat.
You should’ve tagged me . I feel attacked 🌚
Depression does that to you. Seeing just how dysfunctional her family is its clear this isn't simply her being lazy.
@@rattoota Yeah she clearly has some kind of mental issues probably extreme anxiety since you can see how tensed up and nervous she was to be around her family, she probably eats as a way to soothe herself due to her toxic family
This is sad. The poor girls just tryna get better in life and all her fam can do is argue
Heartbreaking.
I grew up in a poor family with drug abuse, dysfunction and constant fighting. Food addiction seems like the only outlet. It's horrific.
I have to say, i took myself to a funeral home to see what size casket i was going need. I gave myself tough love. It worked.
I bet you never really did that...
@@minderoded2383 😂😂😂
That's morbid.
That and cremation is the only way for really huge people.
Good for you. Seriously
It takes a lot of strength to call up your doctor and inform them that you are struggling and unsure if you will be a good candidate for a surgery like this. I truly applaud her for wanting to take a step back and meet with a psychologist to discuss her concerns before pursuing this surgery. I wish her family supported her more and did not stigmatize mental illness. Hope she was able to get to a good place and find the support she deserves with or without surgery!
Mother told her to go eat and leave her alone... and she instinctively walked to the kitchen after! So sad.
Amazing how fast she hopped out of bed and pounced on her mother, when she tried to ring Dr Now,,,,,,, but earlier she's out of breath doing nothing.
Paul Casson - Right?!!! 🤣😂😅
Brett Segmento oh yea because that was hell of a situation
Paul Casson 🤦🏽♀️😭
SHE FLOPPED ON THE BED THEN HOPPED UP QUICKLY.THAT LEAD'S ME TO BELIEVE SHE CAN DO A LITTLE BIT MORE THAN WHAT SHE SAY'S SHE CAN DO.
Facts.
This hits too close to home. It's not easy growing up in an abusive home but girl you need to be accountable for your own happiness and health. I was fat growing up and always bullied. I told myself I needed to see for myself what it would be like to look like the pretty girls. Trust me it's hard and temptations will be there to test you. But the end goal is so worth it!!
I’m only 4 minutes in, this girl seems very nice I’m happy that she can walk unlike other people on this show.
How I wish I knew this girl when she was going through this. I would have told her to send her family home and I would have spent my days with her as I live close and given her support through that time.
this is actually so sweet, I wish you the best
She just sabotaged her whole reason for moving there. I guess my family has the opposite problem. We keep our mouths shut and carry on.
Ummm there’s so much more to this story. Maybe the mom doesn’t want people to find out that something worse happened. But anyways they all need a dr.
*These videos makes me feel skinny*
Same
Well ur not
Same watching these videos gives me a reason to eat healthy 😂
@@agirlwholikesanime8421 lol this comment is so true XD
Probably why show is popular
The mom is so controlling and manipulative! Her daughter is a grown woman.
Why doesn't she stand or sit outside and help with the boxes? Set a chair outside and get up and down.
Pain.
True but she could do something as simple as sitting half way from the car to the door on a chair and while one of the men brings it to her she can lift it and put it on the other side of her while the other man grabs the stuff and takes it in. I wish the family would be motivated to help her too instead of constantly fighting with each other.
The most people can do in this size is arm workouts. Repetitive motion really hurts them and may cause injury.
Dealing with Texas heat at her weight? I get the family dynamics play into it but there are resentment issues all over the place. The family has been enabling her for years and now are uprooted. Also, it’s reality TV. No medical info will be shared with her mother if she is competent. Called HIPPA regulations.
She can walk to get food but not boxes
Her family is toxic! So sad, she needs to split from them to get well because they are not supportive whatsoever.
Yeah I deal with something similar but my family isn’t toxic but yes I agree with you saying her family is toxic my family really sucks at being supportive my dad is not supportive whatsoever and the rest of my family is not really supportive 😢the only supportive family member is my mom so it feels like I don’t get enough support 😏
My father is exactly the same way, I feel her pain and fear.
The mother cannot call YOUR doctor and get information on you unless he has your permission. If anything AT ALL is released without your consent it is a HIPAA violation.
So much family disfunction! Mother telling her to go get something to eat spoke volumes! Dad needs anger management! It really is no wonder she got to the weight she's at. Sad
I remember this episode, the entire family is messed up. I hope Lisa can get away from her family, they seem the source of her problems.
She got out of that bed real fast when the mom called Dr Nows office 😂😂😂
Deborah Chapman fast as hell 🤣🤣
She is an adult who made an adult decision and she heard her mom attempting to call her dr. and humiliate her. So yeah obviously she would be willing to move faster to stop it from happening
😂🤣😁
Right? She didn't get up to help move none of the boxes, but she immediately jumped out of bed when she heard that phone ringing lol.
sure did lol
I think she made a mature choice to get counseling first.
I'm so thankful for my level headed, calm, compassionate, loving family. If those were my parents, I would have run off a long time ago and cut them out my life forever.
This is my situation as well except mine is with me being autistic. I've been abused since I was a kid and it still goes on to this day at 25 years old. I had to manage not only my own emotions but others as well. I'm glad the daughter stood up to her mother and called her out. That took a lot of courage and bravery
She has been traumatised when she was young and now they are non stop fighting. I mean gibe her a break.
mom: '... and not act like a baby"
also the mom: *starts crying and isnt listening to her daughter*
This mom should've never discussed her opinion that the dad was lazy. That's why that son was so insulting to him and caused the fight. That old man needed a break - plus, why the heck wasn't Lacy helping???? She's big, not disabled!!!
Well, she DID call and order the food. 🙄😂
Instead of eating to deal with a problem, get rid of the problem.
Stay strong Lacey! You are worth it and you are not the sum of whatever your family says. You are an individual who is good
The skinny man is pissed cuz he has to do all the heavy lifting while all yall sit dwn. It seems to me yall r passing the blame on each other
I struggle with bipolar as well and its so disheartening seeing the mom encouraging her to withhold her MH diagnosis. If anything, the more your base team of doctors know.... oufff
Imagine sitting there watching your parents move everything.... at least try
She helped by finding them food hah
Exactly! Pure laziness
No wonder shes 600lbs, the Dad is terrifying, flying off the handle over nothing and the Mum is the biggest piece of work. You can tell she is manipulative. She was toxic the whole clip but the minute she said "just go make yourself lunch and leave me alone". Just got a massive window into her whole life right there and I feel so bad for her.
At the end of the day she got in this position because of herself I don’t see her parents shoving food in her mouth that’s her two hands putting the food it in to her mouth ya gotta take responsibility for you’re own shit , yeah things happen but you have a choice to
Stop making excuses this is very sad
Anyone else on a 600lb life marathon?
It genuinely makes me sad when people breath heavy while standing still after minimal physical exertion.
I don’t understand how and why these people get so big? I’m not small but I’m not big either. As someone who has gastroperisis I struggle with my weight due to the nausea and vomiting. In the beginning of January I was 240 pounds and now I’m down around the 180 mark or lower. I have been molested and I have lost my dad and my sister. I have had ppl tell me that they wish they could lose weight like this but honestly they would not like the issues that come with it. I was admitted to the hospital on Dec. 26, 2019 through January 8, 2020. Unfortunately I am back in the hospital. I was admitted on 02/20/2020. It’s very frustrating when I seem to watch watch my family and friends having a life with me on the sideline
This is some of the worst family communication I've ever seen.
"After a family fight males her question"
"Go make yourself some lunch"
That's what got her in that situation...
"Dad has anger issues" yeah with a mom like that no wonder. She is the one ticked off dad at the first..when dad was tired and sit a little bit she goes out said "he is sitting in his butt" the way she said that makes other person angry at dad..but dad was a old man and he was tired. Fights is not.what made that poor girl that way. Its that evil manipulative mom. No wonder daughter is like that
Lisa I think is ur name. The one who is doing weight loss surgery. First may I say what a beautiful voice you have and how pretty you are. Your naturally pretty with no makeup and to get your kind of beauty without makeup it is rare. I completely understand your situation as I struggled with weight my whole life. I'm not to the point of surgery yet but I'm sure in time it would if I didn't be careful. I know this sounds corny but I've been seeing a psychiatrist and therapist for everything for about 20 years. I'm not perfect but far but I'll never stop going. It's just going and chatting about life and things you can say and know you can trust the person. Might take 2 or 3 people before u get the right one but give it a chance. You have so much to live for. What about marriage, children, work, school going out to a dinner and movie with friends for a laugh. Don't cheat yourself and let food win. I'm cheering you on woman and hope to read a happy life. You can pick ur friends but not family so you need to say more! Don't be around when dad's fighting. Find boundaries and stick to them beautiful and you will do it. I'm routing for ya !!!!!
For as dysfunctional and fked up as that family is, this girl is insanely introspective and knows herself and her triggers well. Kudos to her for that, hopefully it helped her during her journey. At the very least it should have decreased the psychotherapist's time-line for providing solutions and in turn results for her. Screw her mom, she's mean, manipulative, passive-aggressive, just plain aggressive, she can't handle reality, can't handle being called out, can't handle a difference in opinion, can't handle HER life being uprooted "for more than a year"-even though her daughter's life depends on it, and did she say she was going to kill herself before she walked out the door? To her daughter?? This woman is mentally unstable and probably should have had her kids taken away from her a long time ago.
Poor girl. Her whole family is screwed over. I hope she gets the help she needs
Yeah, this is a functional family.
Reminds me of my family dynamics. I tend to use food also to cope. I feel so good when I am not around my family. So much tension always.
This isbthe only honest testimony that has made me feel empathetic toward people who struggle with this disease.
She's watching everyone move her shit in and the only thing she carries in is the bag of chicken🤦
Lazy..some of her problem
@@lilyjustice5261 Yep! She's so worried about keeping her food to keep her sanity but she's about to lose her LIFE! It's time to grow up and quit worrying about mommy and daddy fighting. It's what adults do.
@@kearstin1988 👏well said
@@kearstin1988 yes!
Yea, I was thinking the same thing!
This girl doesn't know what FIGHTING is.
And when she tried to talk to her dad, he told her he was embarrassed to go out with her because she was a freak show. What parent says that to a child?
how can you be childish enough to argue with someone that's trying to help you
"i have solved all our eating issues"
"Yea sure i'll have chicken"
Ik what you mean, she is eating unhealthy Popeyes chicken. But well cooked chicken its healthy for a balanced diet.
The dad definitely is to old and out of shape to be moving stuff into a house. He was exhausted and didn’t need anyone questioning why he was taking a break.
My heart breaks for this woman. Her family is killing her.
Omg my mom is so much like this lady, like doesn't matter that I'm an adult and have been working as a lawyer for 7 years with a child and have been living on my own since I was 16, she is still in my business like this. I started on chemo a few weeks ago and rather than talking to me about it, she was going behind my back to try get information from the doctor directly. My mom is so much like this ladys mom its scary.
Who supports all these helpless adult/dependents?
Taxpayers. Most, if not all, are on disability or SSI. That means practically free rent, SNAP benefits, free medical care.
This is the most dysfunctional family I've ever seen! No wonder why Lacey is having 2nd thoughts about her weight loss surgery! The whole family needs therapy asap!
She asked Siri “I need dr now’s office please” ma’am???
The brother must be so disgusted. He looks like normal weight
Who else came here just to see how she would look like after surgery
This is a tough situation for the whole family and I don’t think therapy will have a long lasting effect. This lady has given up before she got started. I’m leaning towards there are no solutions here. Good luck to you all I hope a divine answer comes to you soon.
I would be irritated too if my kid was to lazy even to lift a finger to do anything at all while she sits there in her pity party ordering food. While everyone else dose all the work and she sits there making them feel guilty like it’s all there fault she can’t stop eating. I don’t blame the father at all for being mad. In my opinion she is lazy and a glutton and she needs to take responsibility for her own life and actions. We all have had things happen to us in are lives. That’s no excuse!
I liked your comment, but I feel differently about it. If he was frustrated about the condition she's in, then why doesn't he get more involved? He could've had her exercise by carrying small things. And during lunch, he could've suggest that they eat Panera's instead.
Parents get upset when their children aren't living up to their full potential & that's understandable. But don't get mad at them, while continuing to enable their behavior (if that makes sense, lol). Offer constructive criticism. Give them advice on how to improve! You're right. At the end of the day, her weight is her responsibility. But familial support can make a big difference! :)
It's not the dad's, mom's,
Or the brothers fault that SHE puts THE FOOD in HER OWN MOUTH I rest my case
@@linann96 as old as she is though why should the dad have to remind her to lift small things? Shes so out of touch with reality she needs someone to remind her to lift her arms?
I'm very proud of her for not continuing with the surgery. She's in desperate need of it, but she knows it'd be a waste at this point on her journey. I hope she can heal from all this.
The disrespect in this family is insane
She’s outta breath over doing nothing
She needs to get away from her family and she needs to seek therapy
Food doesn’t help anything it masks the hurt like drugs or alcohol...
That's why when you have a family that's dysfunctional you have to seperate yourself from them set boundaries
