My 600-lb. Life - Nicole's Story
I thought it was kinda sad, getting clean with a garden hose?, really, really sad. Her youth is probably what was helping her stay so mobile. Dr Now hit the nail on the head, in the end its up to her what she puts in her mouth & yes it can be so hard when your family isn't supportive.
I do have doubts on whether she'll make it in the long run. She's too dependent on other people for her success. Her family, her kids, her fiancé, when does she start to depend on herself for her success?

I agree, T, it's always a red flag when I see people complain that their family are not eating the same as them. I'm thrilled when my lovely boyfriend eats the same as me, but I don't expect him to drop his Cheezit habit lol.
I had this surgery, not him.

I had so many concerns about this family. They were all verbally and emotionally abusive towards each other. And although it was real progress that she separated from her parents I think there were still so many issues between her and her boyfriend. I really hope she was able to continue with therapy. Poor girl was seriously traumatized in her past.
I agree with everyone that this one was one of the hardest episodes to watch. Their drive to Houston with her downing all that fast food and her and her boyfriend fighting was really horrible. Her meltdown about the bed in the hotel also made me cringe really hard.
I was never as big as anyone on My 600 Pound Life but there were times when my weight caused big issues like when my husband and I spent a lot of money to go to a concert and when we got there, I couldn't fit in the seat. We spent the concert kind of standing in the back of the arena and I was devastated that I caused both of us to miss that experience. I can't imagine having a response like Nicole and basically blaming my family members. I know she was stressed out and her family wasn't the greatest but it still made me cringe and wonder why she reacted like that.
The issue with living in the hotels and having all those pets... ugh... it was just really hard to watch.
