One thing i noticed about a lot of morbidly obese people on this show, it's never just about food. It's sad how much trauma can continue to affect you after years. I'm glad she's reclaiming her life now.
I am so proud of her. It's an addiction no addiction is easy. It's very, very rough. She made no excuses and definitely put the work in. It's amazing to see her smile. She feels independent now and she is loving it.and it shows. May God continue to bless her and her family..amen 🙏 🙏 🙏.
@@debiparkin3568 I just love her story. She literally did not give up that shows us that she really couldn't and wouldn't make herself a hostage for the rest of her life. Her love for herself and her son came shining through. She wanted to live you know what i mean like really live life. I know that she is going to make the best decisions for her and her son from now on.Thats truly a mother's love 💘. I am proud of her. I always watch this show and so many people give up. She was not excepting failure as an option. May God continue to bless us all and protect us. Your an awesome woman also.May God continue to bless you and your family. Good night my friend.
I like how she doesn't make excuses or pass the buck. She's frank about what got her here, and she takes responsibility for changing it. You've got to be ready for change in order for it to happen.
Katherine your so right She's gonna make it and that why determination. Unlike the other Tammy 600 pound sisters. She's disgusting in every way ,thank you for this comment, Best comment of the year.
You cannot change what you don’t acknowledge. Everyone has the power but needs to learn how to use it. Don’t surround your world with enablers. they love destroying peoples world.
@@hawaiiflowers7066 Couldn't of said it better myself. THANK YOU THESE TYPES OF PEOPLE NEED TO BE LOCKED OUT OF THESE PEOPLE LIVES. AWESOME COMMENT HAWAII. 🥰💕
I was thinking the same thing. When she got out of bed at the start of the video I was stunned at how "normal" her legs looked compared to her stomach. I'm 270lb myself and my legs look very similar. But my stomach is proportional to the fat on the rest of me. Very interesting to see. And I'm glad she's on the right path now!
I've seen morbidly obese ppl with "weeping" skin that's where the skin becomes so stretched that a clear to yellow fluid (sometimes a little blood) will just leak out of the pores cause if to much stretching... I am fat on my best day but nowhere near this watching this show helped me decide to lose weight and I'm already down 45 or so pounds
I legit have the same issue she has. My stomach holds most of my fat. I have always been able to walk and work. But I have always had that stomach hanging. I changed my lifestyle back in March. I was 380 I’m now 347. Im going to keep going. Making sure I stick to this new lifestyle.
That's because taking accountability is hard. Change is hard. Self control is hard. They make too many excuses, because their minds are set to think that if it's hard, it's not worth the effort. It's sad, but change takes bravery. I'm proud of all the people who did take accountability and changed for the better!
If you think about it, she's actually very physically strong. And she has a good attitude and a nice, caring family. I'm going to root for her to get to the finish line!
I liked her instantly. She has that will. She doesn't try and make excuses. She knows how she got to where she was, she took responsibility for it, decided to do something about it, acknowledged her mistakes during the process, but never gave up. She is my favorite person on the show.
Tammy lyn was a beautiful little girl. After her dad died her mom fell apart. This is so sad. Tammy took charge of herself and lost so much weight. She is amazing and I am happy for her.
"I wanted it, so, I ate it." Those words are why I ended up at 320 pounds. I am currently at 210, working my way to 120. 120 is the appropriate weight for my height. Every week I am a little lighter.
@@WindTurbineSyndromeI think maybe hyperventilating and she was anxious and out of breath. She had a lot of dizzyness already and numb hands. But I'm not sure no doctor. Scary but good thing she still responded.
@@WantToGoHomeSoon So is blowing out candles on a birthday cake. Also, you do know that Christmas is celebrated on the day of a Roman deity's birthday right? The tree and Easter is also borrowed from Paganism. So from one Christian to another, shut up and let people have their wishes. Only God can judge and He's rolling his eyes at Christians like you right now who want to preach to others, about what's right and wrong instead of leading by example.
I feel real compassion for Tammy. She had a very difficult childhood and no one parented her. She has done so marvellously in her attempt to lose weight.
You can really see the difference in Tammy since she's lost weight. Not just physical but more important she's changing mentally. More positive about life now. 🙏❤️
It's heartbreaking seeing her struggle to stand up after she passed out in the hallway. I can't even imagine how scared and helpless she must have felt.
Weight gain isn’t just about food, it’s an emotional prison you get trapped in and feel there’s no way out. Tammy is such a beautiful person inside and out I pray her journey will have a happy ending.
@@jamborginiii1732 What an ignorant comment. It's not an excuse. You don't walk in these people's shoes and certainly have no total understanding of what they went through and how they handled problems. We all have problems and handle them differently. Get a grip.
What an amazing person she is. To face your traumas and hardships and put so much work into getting healthy is mountain of an accomplishment. She is a champion, warrior queen!! I am feeling further inspired to keep going after a rough week thanks to her story 🙌🏻. Praying for her continued success
I just want to cheer her on so badly, she is so strong for pushing past all those barriers and doing what she felt was right. Almost in tears because man she did that!
I'm surprised a psychologist hasn't been called in years ago to help her! So start this NOW. This huge weight gain starts with the mental process first: dealing emotionally with her fathers death many years ago, what she "believed" when bullied by kids, what she "loves" about carbs, and her obvious depression now that needs to be addressed. Working with plastic surgeons, I saw the process of psych counseling before the surgery, saw the huge table to support the patient, the equipment used & the enormous amount of belly fat removed in the operating room...more counseling afterward for months...and gentle exercises to start toning the body. PLEASE stay on the right path to lessen & remove all the burdens you have. You are worth it & deserve a better life than you're suffering!! It CAN BE DONE! 🙏
I'm addicted to these shows lately and it's kind of a good thing because every single time I watch "My 600 Pound Life" I'm extra motivated to get in my daily workout and eat healthier. Watching these poor people suffer so bad really drives me to be healthier! So in a way I am thankful for this show and to anyone who is suffering from obesity, you are ALL in my prayers ❤️
I remember several years ago I suffered from severe depression and mental disorder. I was addicted to illicit pills, alcohol, and smoking until I was recommended for psilocybin mushroom treatment. Psilocybin treatment saved my life honestly I'm 8 years clean now. It's quite fascinating how effective they are against anxiety and depression.
To be honest, mushrooms are one of the most amazing things on the planet and it is natural, they serve in many ways not only for mental related issues.
Can you help me with a reliable source I would really appreciate it. Many people talk about mushrooms and psychedelics but nobody talks about where to get them. It is very hard to get a reliable source here in New Zealand. Really need!
I wish they were readily available in my place. Microdosing was my next plan of care for my husband. He's 59 & has many mental health issues plus probably CTE & a TBI that left him in a coma 8 days. It's too late now I had to get a TPO as he's 6'6 300+ pound homicidal maniac. He's constantly talking about killing someone. He's violent. Anyone reading this Familiar w/ BPD knows if it is common for an obsession with violence.
Sooooo proud of Tammy!!! I hope she keeps up the good work. I think she’ll continue to do well bc she’s taking responsibility and accountability for herself. Majority of the patients don’t do that. And it just never cease to amaze me how almost every single person has had some type of trauma happen in their life that has caused them to become overweight. Peace and blessings!!
She's one of the few intelligent responsible and mature patients of Dr. Now. She makes no excuses, takes responsibility and has class and polish when she speaks. I know about the struggle as I've had BED all my life and struggle every day with it. It doesn't show on me right now, but the internal struggle is still the same. I admire how she was able to take the bull by the horns and lose the required amount to qualify for the surgery. Not everyone has the strength of character to do this, yours truly included
@@titsticklerthompson981Yes, you can inspire others to lose weight, but the internal struggle to deal with my inner demons is strictly between myself and God. that's my belief system. others may say, between me and myself. the point is we can achieve and maintain a thin body, however we each have to work out the inner demons that cause this incredible desire to overeat, ourselves. I'm grateful to report that I have lost some of the demons and don't binge any more. Regretfully the obsession with food and the body dysmorphia is still there, but I have faith that if God can enable me to stop binging, then She can enable to become free of those isues as well. I'm deeply committed to my faith and my struggle to come out of this internal battle and I know I will be victorious in the end, as will anyone who truly desires freedom and peace . . . and is willing to follow through in whatever path is right for them
This is so encouraging, thank God she has a great support system! You're a beautiful woman Tammy, stay strong for your son, and husband who love you so much. You deserve all the happiness that is coming your way!!💞
Tammy I'm proud of you! It's not easy having gone through those traumatic experiences and you are looking great! Keep the optimistic perspective and I can't wait to see the final results!
Like a true addict, all addiction is based in trauma. I'm a recovered drug addict, I know the struggle. She wants to get better and she's pushing through. She wants it... True grit!
My mom was a drug addict and it was because she was raped at 14 and her dad never told her he loved her. Then she got pregnant woth me at 16 and the rest is history. I became a food addict because of the trauma of growing up bouncing from one drug house to another with her.
@@kaitlynemcnutt8802 I’m so very sorry to hear that! I hope your life is better now and that you’ve found healing! Don’t let your addiction rule your life! You have the opportunity to break the cycle and build a better life for yourself! I’m sending love to you and pray for your healing. I’m very sorry for your mom also for what happened to her😢 but that doesn’t take away accountability for what’s she’s put her own child through. I hope you and your Mom are ok overall.
@SBNRJesusFreakforlife thank you for such kind words.... my mom lost her battle with drug addiction and passed away a few years ago. I however am a very happy mama and wife these days and doing my best to break the cycle. I still have desires to binge eat, especially when I'm stressed or sad but I try really hard to journal and/or go for a walk instead.
When Tamy said " I can't remember being 170lbs... I was in my early teens " made me so happy for her. It's not the weight but the fact she's reaching her fitness/ health goals that made me smile. Big ups Dr Now and Tamy!
She's still very mobile unlike other guests on the show she needs someone to motivate the HELL OUT OF HER I think she can do it without surgery she was able to get up off the floor easy without any other help other than the chair 🪑 Awesome!!!
My heart breaks for this poor woman. I know Dr. Now has a bad rep in some situations but I honestly do believe he does care and helps a lot of people. I pray this woman finds healing and peace. She honestly seems like a good person.
I really like this lady a lot. She seems like a great person. He’s story makes me very sad but gives me inspiration to do better in my life. I want to stop drinking Coca Cola.
That was such a hard one to kick. I went from multiple per day, to one per day. But I kept gaining weight. So now I try to limit to one per week. My favorite is from famous fast food joint. I used to have over 40k loyalty points from drinking so much Coke 😂. I found some caffeine crystal lite that is only 5 calories per glass, so that’s what I substituted. I’m sure it’s not great for me, but it’s better than the Coke.
One thing I love about this show is they don’t auger coat it at all. They show you how miserable and humiliating it is being this big. And the emotional strain that takes on a person, it is really disturbing with some cases.
I almost bawled my eyes out when Dale was telling her next time she passes out again and no one might be there to help her. It may be a bit harsh for Tammy but it's true and scary just thinking about it.
I loved that she was so honest and took responsibility for her weight. However I can see how it all began, bless her. She has done so well. I wish the best for the rest of journey.
Her son seems to be one of the nicest boy’s. You don’t see that kinda love and respect anymore within children his age. The fact he helped her up made me tear up a bit.
Addiction to anything can always be traced to a traumatic event in that person's life.. When I was eight years old I was molested by my uncle's friend who was thirty years old so food became my best friend I knew I could always count on it and I also knew that I would not let me down and always make me feel good so I was 400 lbs by the time I was 30 years old and then I traded my food addiction for an addiction to high dosage pain pills but my tolerance went sky high and pills became to expensive to buy on the street so I went out and found something stronger and cheaper and that's when I started i.v use of Heroin and my weight went down to 210 lbs and I became homeless I got tired of living that life and I got sober and now I have 4 years sober so I know how hard fighting addiction can be but We do recover ❤️💜
That stomach is crazy! Her legs aren’t even that fat. It’s so weird how different people hold the fat in different places. I think she must’ve had weight loss surgery in the past and then all that loose skin just filled back up with the fat. Like that girl on thousand pound friends who had the surgery once before and now she’s got that fat apron that just hangs over like she’s wearing a skirt. Made out of fat.
I don't think I've seen a stomach as bad...no I'm lying,I've seen plenty actually I think the others carry the weight on the stomach and different parts of the body but with her it's just the stomach...wow.
Ive watched this show from the beginning and I'm so Proud of each and everyone that has lost the weight and transformed there lives! I And I understand the people that wernt able to lose the weight..As I too,have struggled most of my life with trying to lose weight, so i know first hand the battle there fighting..Its a Constant Battle..I hope they continue to show new episodes! God Bless you Dr Now for helping Sooo Many people transform there lives that's helped to replace there sadness with joy and Start living again! 🙏🏿♥️🥰
The fact that she takes responsibility and is motivated and dedicated, she deserves all of the best that life has to offer her and continued success in her weight loss journey.
I saw her in the german version right now and she is a amazing person. So much trouble in those year but she never gave up! I am a big fan from her. We are so proud of you Tamy ❤️
It's touching to see so many people being so supportive of Tammy. I think she is doing a great job and will succeed in her weight loss journey. She has a lot of people supporting her here and that makes a big difference to her.
I love Dr Now he's a great man. For some of these patients his program really helps them lose the weight but fix their emotional and mental health issues..
She should be proud of herself. She has had hardships but is working hard to overcome them here. I hope she reached her goal and got more of her life back. She seems a lovely lady.
I use to do what she did, im an emotional eater too, but my stomach never got like that ever. When I was younger I was anorexic and started gaining weight after my son was born, it's been an uphill battle.
I so hope she's reading these comments, I've never routed for any other patient more than you!!!!! You got this. Don't let your son go through what you did. 👍❤️👍
I understand this lovely lady. I lost my dad but instead of food i turned to heroin, behind all addiction is trauma. Im so glad she lost her weight she shouldd be so proud of herself.
I’m tell you one thing she didn’t make excuses. She owned up to her mistakes …… 90% of people can’t even do that They are always the victim. We all mess up in life. You own up to and have to wanna change
Wow I have never seen anything like that! That has got to be soooo uncomfortable all that pulling! She needs to be on Dr Now board of weightloss superstars! If she did it with the way her abdomen was anyone can. Can’t give up on yourself
One thing i noticed about a lot of morbidly obese people on this show, it's never just about food. It's sad how much trauma can continue to affect you after years. I'm glad she's reclaiming her life now.
This shows that exercise does nothing to weight drop.... and that therapy only works if you want it to
I am so proud of her. It's an addiction no addiction is easy. It's very, very rough. She made no excuses and definitely put the work in. It's amazing to see her smile. She feels independent now and she is loving it.and it shows. May God continue to bless her and her family..amen 🙏 🙏 🙏.

it's rare to hear doc firmly say "im proud of you, you're doing great", that's wonderful
Where is the full episode
You are right, I think it's because she gave no BS and did better than most.:)
True, Dr. Now rarely say this but she deserve it.
It was astounding when he told one patient, "Stop being so hard on yourself."
Seeing her son ask his mama if she was ok was heartbreaking. Protect this child at all cost, and I hope he is protected
He is an outstanding young nan

She is a rare one accepting responsibility for her situation...
the other Tammy from the other show just blames her family who do more than enough for her.
It's so crazy how people on this show carry the weight in different parts of the body. Skin is amazing for not just giving up and ripping open.
If it did we wouldn't have a lot of morbidly obese people 😬 skin buys us more time as humans. Imagine if it did RIP open...
If it did maybe it would be an earlier wake up call for us.

She acknowledged her problem right from the start & took some accountability. I think a lot of the patients do not do this.
Most don't
Yeah, a lot of these people just want the surgery because they think it's some magic solution.
A lot of them seem to be in denial...they deny the connection between their diet and their weight.
That's because taking accountability is hard. Change is hard. Self control is hard. They make too many excuses, because their minds are set to think that if it's hard, it's not worth the effort. It's sad, but change takes bravery. I'm proud of all the people who did take accountability and changed for the better!
She speaks so kindly to the son even when she’s half passed out and can’t get up and must be feeling horrible. that’s goodness
If you think about it, she's actually very physically strong. And she has a good attitude and a nice, caring family.
I'm going to root for her to get to the finish line!
How are you doing
yeah
Physically strong my ass, mentally strong for sure.
@@deidra-v6575ok then putt 400lb on your back while sitting down and then attempt to stand up

I admire how she was able to take the bull by the horns and lose the required amount to qualify for the surgery. Not everyone has the strength of character to do this, yours truly included
Maybe she can be your inspiration
@@titsticklerthompson981Yes, you can inspire others to lose weight, but the internal struggle to deal with my inner demons is strictly between myself and God. that's my belief system. others may say, between me and myself. the point is we can achieve and maintain a thin body, however we each have to work out the inner demons that cause this incredible desire to overeat, ourselves. I'm grateful to report that I have lost some of the demons and don't binge any more. Regretfully the obsession with food and the body dysmorphia is still there, but I have faith that if God can enable me to stop binging, then She can enable to become free of those isues as well. I'm deeply committed to my faith and my struggle to come out of this internal battle and I know I will be victorious in the end, as will anyone who truly desires freedom and peace . . . and is willing to follow through in whatever path is right for them
Hello 👋
Tammy you worked so hard!! And your son is a wonderful young man!! You rock girl!!!
This is so encouraging, thank God she has a great support system! You're a beautiful woman Tammy, stay strong for your son, and husband who love you so much. You deserve all the happiness that is coming your way!!💞
Tammy I'm proud of you! It's not easy having gone through those traumatic experiences and you are looking great! Keep the optimistic perspective and I can't wait to see the final results!
GOOD FOR YOU SWEETIE!! This just gives me goosebumps!
Like a true addict, all addiction is based in trauma. I'm a recovered drug addict, I know the struggle.
She wants to get better and she's pushing through. She wants it... True grit!
My mom was a drug addict and it was because she was raped at 14 and her dad never told her he loved her. Then she got pregnant woth me at 16 and the rest is history.
I became a food addict because of the trauma of growing up bouncing from one drug house to another with her.
@@kaitlynemcnutt8802 I’m so very sorry to hear that! I hope your life is better now and that you’ve found healing! Don’t let your addiction rule your life! You have the opportunity to break the cycle and build a better life for yourself! I’m sending love to you and pray for your healing. I’m very sorry for your mom also for what happened to her😢 but that doesn’t take away accountability for what’s she’s put her own child through. I hope you and your Mom are ok overall.
@SBNRJesusFreakforlife thank you for such kind words.... my mom lost her battle with drug addiction and passed away a few years ago. I however am a very happy mama and wife these days and doing my best to break the cycle. I still have desires to binge eat, especially when I'm stressed or sad but I try really hard to journal and/or go for a walk instead.
This is the one episode that actually made me boo who cry🥺☹️god bless her❤️
What a lovely lady she has suffered so much, now she's lost so much weight, I wish her best wishes and Godbless her
When Tamy said " I can't remember being 170lbs... I was in my early teens " made me so happy for her. It's not the weight but the fact she's reaching her fitness/ health goals that made me smile. Big ups Dr Now and Tamy!
She's still very mobile unlike other guests on the show she needs someone to motivate the HELL OUT OF HER I think she can do it without surgery she was able to get up off the floor easy without any other help other than the chair 🪑 Awesome!!!
Absolutely
You can do it mum! You are beautiful and I can see the motivation in you. Your son and your husband loves you.
My heart breaks for this poor woman. I know Dr. Now has a bad rep in some situations but I honestly do believe he does care and helps a lot of people. I pray this woman finds healing and peace. She honestly seems like a good person.
So nice to see someone who is succeeding!
I really like this lady a lot. She seems like a great person. He’s story makes me very sad but gives me inspiration to do better in my life. I want to stop drinking Coca Cola.
I’m with you on the coke, hard to drink less but we can do it!
One of the best starts you can make.
That was such a hard one to kick. I went from multiple per day, to one per day. But I kept gaining weight. So now I try to limit to one per week. My favorite is from famous fast food joint. I used to have over 40k loyalty points from drinking so much Coke 😂. I found some caffeine crystal lite that is only 5 calories per glass, so that’s what I substituted. I’m sure it’s not great for me, but it’s better than the Coke.
One thing I love about this show is they don’t auger coat it at all. They show you how miserable and humiliating it is being this big. And the emotional strain that takes on a person, it is really disturbing with some cases.
I love her smile and how proud she is even though it was so hard for her
I almost bawled my eyes out when Dale was telling her next time she passes out again and no one might be there to help her. It may be a bit harsh for Tammy but it's true and scary just thinking about it.
I loved that she was so honest and took responsibility for her weight. However I can see how it all began, bless her.
She has done so well. I wish the best for the rest of journey.
What about Zachary? He’s fat too.
My heart shatters for every one that struggles with their eating habits. Such sweet and strong people. They don’t deserve this pain.
She has done wonderful!!! I am so happy for her,and I pray God blesses her and her family 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Her son seems to be one of the nicest boy’s. You don’t see that kinda love and respect anymore within children his age.
The fact he helped her up made me tear up a bit.
Yeah. He's a good kid.
No matter how many setbacks she had (some of which weren't even her fault), she never gave up. She never made excuses. She just kept pushing on.
Im crying for zach, poor kid. No kid deserves to be scared like this😭😭
Addiction to anything can always be traced to a traumatic event in that person's life.. When I was eight years old I was molested by my uncle's friend who was thirty years old so food became my best friend I knew I could always count on it and I also knew that I would not let me down and always make me feel good so I was 400 lbs by the time I was 30 years old and then I traded my food addiction for an addiction to high dosage pain pills but my tolerance went sky high and pills became to expensive to buy on the street so I went out and found something stronger and cheaper and that's when I started i.v use of Heroin and my weight went down to 210 lbs and I became homeless I got tired of living that life and I got sober and now I have 4 years sober so I know how hard fighting addiction can be but We do recover ❤️💜
This gal rocks!!! She’s not a quitter!!! She has the motivation!
I feel so bad especially when her son went “are you ok?”
Amazing, she was honest and knew her problem, didn't make excuses and she lost weight. Wouldn't life be easy if everyone was like this.
That stomach is crazy! Her legs aren’t even that fat. It’s so weird how different people hold the fat in different places. I think she must’ve had weight loss surgery in the past and then all that loose skin just filled back up with the fat. Like that girl on thousand pound friends who had the surgery once before and now she’s got that fat apron that just hangs over like she’s wearing a skirt. Made out of fat.
This comment was a wild ride 😂
That’s exactly how my Body is. All my fat goes straight to my stomach. I was 380 I’m now 347. Have been eating good since March and walking
We could say it’s empty skin without the fat inside it.
@@stephfo keep up the good work that’s amazing.
I don't think I've seen a stomach as bad...no I'm lying,I've seen plenty actually I think the others carry the weight on the stomach and different parts of the body but with her it's just the stomach...wow.
She’s so graceful with her entire demeanor
Ive watched this show from the beginning and I'm so Proud of each and everyone that has lost the weight and transformed there lives! I And I understand the people that wernt able to lose the weight..As I too,have struggled most of my life with trying to lose weight, so i know first hand the battle there fighting..Its a Constant Battle..I hope they continue to show new episodes! God Bless you Dr Now for helping Sooo Many people transform there lives that's helped to replace there sadness with joy and Start living again! 🙏🏿♥️🥰
The fact that she takes responsibility and is motivated and dedicated, she deserves all of the best that life has to offer her and continued success in her weight loss journey.

You know it ain’t fake when the Producer steps in
I saw her in the german version right now and she is a amazing person. So much trouble in those year but she never gave up! I am a big fan from her.
We are so proud of you Tamy ❤️
What a wonderful family. I was so touched by the compassion the husband and son had for her. And she is so charming herself. You want her to win.
Whole heartedly, bless this woman for finally loving herself enough to move forward. You are so strong.
Hello 👋 pretty lady how are you doing over there and the weather condition like
She's so pretty and her personality only makes her even more beautiful
It's touching to see so many people being so supportive of Tammy. I think she is doing a great job and will succeed in her weight loss journey. She has a lot of people supporting her here and that makes a big difference to her.
I love Dr Now he's a great man. For some of these patients his program really helps them lose the weight but fix their emotional and mental health issues..
Hello 👋 pretty lady how are you doing over there and the weather condition like
Felt so bad.... Mum are you ok? That so sweet of you son
She should be proud of herself. She has had hardships but is working hard to overcome them here. I hope she reached her goal and got more of her life back. She seems a lovely lady.
I really like this woman. She's awesome. What a struggle she's had. We love you a lot!!
Awesome! Finally one woman who in spite of all the Challenges, she's losing that weight! Most ppl have a hard time taking off 20lbs instead of 250+
I use to do what she did, im an emotional eater too, but my stomach never got like that ever. When I was younger I was anorexic and started gaining weight after my son was born, it's been an uphill battle.
I so hope she's reading these comments, I've never routed for any other patient more than you!!!!! You got this. Don't let your son go through what you did. 👍❤️👍
Just incredible that she made a breakthrough in her life❤️❤️
I understand this lovely lady. I lost my dad but instead of food i turned to heroin, behind all addiction is trauma. Im so glad she lost her weight she shouldd be so proud of herself.
I’m tell you one thing she didn’t make excuses. She owned up to her mistakes …… 90% of people can’t even do that
They are always the victim.
We all mess up in life. You own up to and have to wanna change
Wow I have never seen anything like that! That has got to be soooo uncomfortable all that pulling! She needs to be on Dr Now board of weightloss superstars! If she did it with the way her abdomen was anyone can. Can’t give up on yourself
She's got a great smile..I wish her the best 👍
