1000-lb Sisters

Sometimes I want mindless entertainment. And this does it for me. I have some silly investment in seeing the sisters succeed, better themselves, and some wacky stuff along the way. I like Chris a lot as he seems like a good honest man. The family I think is a product of their environment and it is so different from man that I enjoy it every week. It's not everyone's cup of tea and I can't say whether it is a negative reality to show on television but it is popular enough that I can't see it going anywhere any time soon unless Michael and Amy's divorce puts a huge handcuff of the filming. Cheers.

...well especially Amy. this is not good tv but it is entertaining I must say. sometimes it is hard and sad to watch but it is also very eye opening. at the end of the day I really hope they do well and I would love to see them get healthy but I am not sure if this is where we are going with this.

Food addiction is quite complicated and this show does sort of make you see. Also it makes you see that you should be allowed to live and make fun and be a person even if you're obese. Most people think that when you're fat you should live to become thin, but that doesn't work and makes you depressed and eat even more. Just treat fat people as people and let them be themselves. Believe me when you're overweight you get plenty to hear from everyone about dieting, healthy ways of living, exercise. They don't need your opinion about that, they just need to be treated as a person.

Besides that, the sisters are very funny and the family interactions are good to see. How they can have the biggest row and finish with a big fart and everyone starts laughing. Even with all the rows going on, you can still see they care deeply about each other.

Hope they all make their goals!

I never watch shows like this and now I remember why because gah dayum is Tammy the most spoiled, entitled little s*** on the planet. First off, to sit there and play victim when there are woman out there who I know personally that went thru actual trauma like SA and they don't consider themselves victims yet somehow Tammy thinks she's a victim when she did this to herself? And then when Amy wants her to move out of her own house because of how awful tammy is being to her she has the gall to say she should be involved in the decision on weather or not she leaves and better yet she should be able to leave THEY'RE house when SHE wants? What an awful person.

On a positive note this show has inspired me to eat better and I went on a run today for the first time in I don't know how long. I guess that's the upside to these shows but good for Amy for sticking with it so far. I hope she continues to do so.

Trash TV but darn is it entertaining. It's TLC what more do you expect? But on a serious note, as sad as it is, this story of two morbidly obese sisters motivates me to eat healthier and stay active.
