Did anyone see.......

The show "Half Ton Man" on the Learning Channel last night. It was VERY interesting.

I only watched half I saw until he came home what happened after that? and what was up with all the trash in the kitchen (pizza boxs, soda cans) Denice

Yes I did see it a few weeks ago. I thought it was very sad and will someone tell me how he was eating KFC about a month after his Gastric Bypass....I cannot even eat a piece of bread.....

and apparently he was VERY controlling because his wife just seemed to do whatever he said. NOT ME. I was just in awe that he could screw up his life that bad. I mean, someone is trying to save your life and it seemed like he spit in the face of HELP. I mean, when they have to take walls out of your house to get you out of it, I think you should kiss the a$$ of whoever is going to help you. Am I wrong?

I watched this show last nite too. I was amazed and shocked but saddened too. I did not see anything that resembled eating healthy or pouch rules in the TV show. His wife was serving him something in a bowl and it was a very FULL helping of food. He seemed so angry - I thought he needed mental health help - maybe dual diagnoses would help him. I thought his wife needed help too. They both need intense therapy to deal with the food issues that they apparently still had. I thought the other two people were much better off, even though the one guy gained back a lot of his weight, at least he seemed like he understood the problems and just couldn't get a handle on them - I can relate to that. And the lady lost 900 lbs. how fabulous is that?!! Dana P
