It broke my heart.  Her legs were so pitiful!  It made me hurt just to watch her try and walk.  It also broke my heart her trying to make her way through the airport and all of the people staring and taking pictures.  People can be so cruel.  I had a business trip and the secretary booked me two seats....I was so humiliated!!!  But at least I was not smashed against someone and both of us miserable the entire trip.  I pray her family and boyfriend will be good support and will not enable her.

I am amazed by her determination. I look forward to seeing her, "where are they now" episode.

I found this episode particularly captivating. She is a beautiful girl, she has a strong, supportive family and she's very bright. I think (hope) she'll be successful. I didn't find her parents enabling her~ at least not like so many others. I can't wait to see her follow up!

I recorded and haven'****ched it yet. It will be interesting so see someone who is not enabled by their family as it generally seems to be the case.

She did an awesome job in her weightloss.   I particularly liked how she seemed to grow up over the year - from those silly little girl bows to a more grown up and confident manner.

I don't know how she's done it. I suffer with severe arthritis recently and could hardly get around at 303.......I can't imagine how people at such a high weight can bath or just handle day to day stuff.....kudos to her, I still don't get it. I am impressed by her determination but she must've been so lifeless at one point.

She's one of my favorite people from the show. I adore her and her supportive family. I can't wait to see the great things she's going to do with her life once she's at a manageable weight.

Ain't gonna lie though, the whole bare feet at the zoo and grocery store had me wincing. I realize shoes may be a challenge but even water socks or booties would have been a better option.

SUPER AMAZING story.  And I'm so glad they showed her working with a therapist!  Good for her.  Great change from Penny :D
