I can relate with alot of of the issues some of the people have makes me feel less alone.1

I can relate to aspects too.1

I used to watch it, I haven't watched TV in a while.
It always made me want to eat more for some strange reason. I started to get paranoid that there were subliminal messages, because seeing those people struggle shouldn't make me want more food when I'm not hungry, but it did.2 -
I watch it while on my exercise bike.
I'm a complete TV addict so now the rule is if the TV is on i'm on my bike.8 -
One of my favorite shows.1

But it is nice to see at the end they make a change with or without there support .
I remember one guy was a real tool and put her down for trying to lose weight .
I know! The caretakers can be such enablers on that show!
I saw an episode that the spouse/partner was so into bigger girls that he threatened to leave her if she had the surgery.2 -
I would also like to recommend watching "Supersize Vs. Superskinny" on youtube. OMG, guilty pleasure.4

I enjoy it, and think its very inspiring. I imagine the story of how they got there.2

Some form of an abuse for sure to compensate.2 -
I love that show! Although majority of the time I find it inspirational when the person want to continue their journey to health. I am very frustrated and disappointed when some fail to do so after the show because by being on the show, EVERYTHING is paid for regarding surgical procedures.1

I had and I stress HAD an enabling hubby.
He doesn't like really thin girls and was a bit worried when I started on this journey.
He's fine now and knows its about my health and nothing else and is now very supportive.
From that experience I think the care takers feel like they are no longer needed and don't know where they fit into the journey, not realising that just going for a walk with the person is 1000xs better then buying cake.1 -
