    When medical professionals stop saying "diet," people will be more receptive to making life style changes. Do not focus on the pounds but how your blood work improves. Your clothes will become too big as you progress. And progress takes time. Allow yourself whatever amount of time it takes to get healthy. You deserve it. ❤ Surgery is not a cure; it is a tool like exercise and healthy eating. Learn how to cook; take a culinary course at a college or watch a lot of video's. Learn about seasonings and herbs, and cooking methods. Have FUN learning and creating flavorful meals. That's how I lost 150 lbs in 2 years and continue since 2005. ❤

    JESUS loves us all, but he is a righteous judge and sin is still wrong even though he loves us. 1 Corinthians 6:9-11 "Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind, Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God. And such were some of you: but ye are washed, but ye are sanctified, but ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God."❤️🔥🙏

    My niece had to lose 60 pounds to qualify for her bariatric surgery. Once her goal was achieved, she told the doctor that she refused the operation and would settle for a diet. She lost 150 pounds and has been at a healthy weight for 5 years now. She runs every day and sometimes does triathlons.

    She wasn't "strutting" at all; that's the only way she had of carrying her large abdomen---I'm nowhere near Nikki's size, but as an overweight person, I have to lean back sometimes to do the same thing. But yes, her mobility is/was amazing (the show ended around 2016, hence the past tense). Most of the people on the show didn't bother to get up to go to the bathroom, and here she was walking and at least staying mobile. She got down to around 200 pounds before the show ended, and I'd like to see her now.

    I've seen this episode before. That was one of the first indicators she was going to be more willing to follow the plan on her own. She still walked, drove, and worked (as a costume designer at a theater) at 650 lbs. I can't think of another patient off the top of my that you can say that about. Her family was the most supportive too. It always amazes me to see the number of households where everyone else is still eating crap and expecting the patient to follow Dr. Now's diet or even making fun of their diet or telling them they can cheat. Not this family, they jumped right on board with her.

Are you aware that some people have a medical condition that made them fat? Yes, some people eat way too much and got fat cuz of that.. BUT that usually has reasons as well like trauma. No one deserves to be bashed. No one is fat because they like to be like that. It’s sad enough to be in that situation. No need to make it worse!

    Very proud of her, she really took the program seriously and did not give any excuses. Finally a person that really wants something so bad that she accomplished beyond the goal that Dr. Now gave. And everyone is in it with her and she is getting the support and encouragement to be motivated to go beyond her expectations. Can't wait to see how things go. Congratulations on getting approved for weight lost surgery 🎉🎉🎉👏👏👍😊☺️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

    I had this surgery in January. Since then, I've hung up my cane, I can walk so much further without stopping, I'm not out of breath and changing my diet was the easiest thing. Down 90+lbs from my highest weight with 110 to go. I recommend this to anyone who has the mental fortitude to stick with it. The worst thing about it, literally, are the chewable multivitamin for the first 6 months.

    That's not really an apt comparison because a heroin addict who throws out the last bag of heroin is in for about 2 or 3 weeks of absolute misery , anxiety, no sleep, body pain and extreme nausea , diarrhea and vomiting and then probably 6 months of trying to get your body temperature and mental state back to something like normal. The addictions are similar, yes, but stopping a heroin habit cold turkey is MUCH worse than changing your diet.
