najatch79 most people who are obese are obese because of mental trauma. They turn to food for comfort. This does not mean they aren’t aware this just means they know but can’t stop it.
@najatch79 why is weakness considered negative? We aren't super human. It's impossible to be strong, especially mentally, 100% of the time. Furthermore, being weak and letting yourself go isn't simple in the slightest. If it were that simple, her weight gain wouldn't have been so much. We live in a grey world, Buddy, not black & white. Nothing is quite that cut & dry.
I don’t know if anyone here is trying to be mean but it can be hard for someone (like her and many others) to see a problem and to also fix it. You’d think she’d try to solve it at 300lbs BUT people can be very “off putting” and neglecting about because it’s embarrassing, sad, angering, etc. Some people are used to an unhealthy life style, some are neglective about having an unhealthy life style. Again, idk if anyone here was being rude, but I just wanted to make it clear that although it seems easy to realize your problem and solve it, it’s not the same for everyone. I haven’t experienced this but I know the facts. Sorry if I was seemingly rude, I wasn’t trying to be. Everyone has an opinion and this was mine. Yes I am so proud of her for realizing her problem and getting help. Yes it would have been better sooner, but at least she got the help she needed. I don’t even know her first handed but she seems WONDERFUL and I hope she can empower people someday! 👏👏👏
Strawberry Tiger Because you never think its gonna get this far. You set weight limits and surpass them and think “well 10 more lbs wont hurt so ill have another slice of pizza.” and then exercising gets hard and it just goes on and on. people are so quick to shame fat people even when theyre trying to fix their problem. yeah, theyre fat because of choices they made, but you dont tell a coke addict “well why didnt you just not do coke?” you dont know what in their life led to their problem. stress eating is common. people have kids. people make mistakes. its human to err, but takes a better person to see their problem and fix it regardless of how far it got.
Right! The kindness we show each other really means the most. Them comforting her at a moment like that probably made her feel so much better. Especially compared to some other episodes where they damn near give em a concussion on the way out 😭
Outta all the people that have been on the show she’s one of the subjects that was actually nice and decent ,some of them are normally mean rude and cold due to their circumstances (weight)
Jennie Jones Weight is no excuse to be rude. Can be real hard to understand why some folks are so miserable. Attitude towards life or life's challenges is a choice. How we respond to any situation is a personal choice. Being positive is always a better way to see things, in my opinion.
Wouldn't you be angry if you got to 600 lbs? The anger is a protection mechanism to push people away. Fear of dying or,even worse ,failing , is probably a huge part of the mean thing. How would you feel if you knew that everyone can now she what you have been trying to hide for years by hiding in your house? I hope she finds the peace she so deserves to have.😇
You mean to tell me 806 ppl like this in 3 days .. I wonder how many ppl watch this and didn’t even like this post . We obviously Obsessed with fat people 😫🤣
@@e_sidera my moneys on that one lol murican doctors dont care, they just wanna get paid and dr now may be good at his job or whatev, but hes an asshole...
This breaks my heart. She is so strong. People are so quick to say “why did she let herself get this bad?” Why? No one knows, guaranteed she doesn’t even know. Be kind, you never know what can happen to you.
Sama you are so right!! 3 years ago my husband took a video of me walking into a store wearing a nice dress he had just bought me. Later that day, he sent me the video and I couldn’t even watch the whole thing. I couldn’t believe that it was me😳. I wondered to myself: “how did I let myself get to this, and when???” That video encouraged me to lose 103lbs and I think of that video every time I start to eat something that I know I shouldn’t or if I don’t feel like working out.
I've had to help move a 600+ point patient before as an EMT and the level of teamwork and clear communication needed is no joke! These folks did awesome!
I can't imagine how dehumanizing having so many people carry you because you cannot walk is. So happy the EMTs were kind, sweet, and reassuring to her. Sad situation all around. Hope she loses the weight!!
We can’t stop our friends from dating the biggest jerks in the room, we certainly can’t help someone from changing their eating. Besides abandoning them what else can one do?
How in the heck the human heart can continue working with that amount of weight? It's amazing that she came back with her test showing no worries. Amazing!
@@deviantmoore9744 or maybe they're just decent human beings 😅 don't get me wrong, you have a good point, but not everybody is heartless when it comes to these kinds of people
Why are all the african american very fat when we, your relatives, here in africa are so skinny and not have many food? If all african american give 10% of their food to us in africa they would stop all starvation in africa.
I love this comment so much! People tell you to do things for them but never for yourself, as if yourself doesn't matter. If you're gonna change, change for yourself because you should be just as loved as everyone else.
I was thinking the same thing! They humanizes her completely in that experience and reassured her that she wasn’t a bother to them. They should be commended for going above and beyond
I’m an EMT and we do this a lot. It’s harder than most of our patients, but regardless of if they’re too skinny or severely obese, they’re all people with feelings like the rest of us! We treat everyone with the same amount of respect.

White Okay ruclips.net/user/postUgkx6K7NWahp9y3ir1gVAwysOCHOOPSnWZbw . I got it from my browser's history. I know that it's really frustrating to be over-weighted but all is possible with a strong determination. Good luck…..
My heaviest was 315. Now I’m 165. 30 more pounds to go. I feel bad for these people but at the end of the day we have to face the consequences for our choices
I don't know your strange American weight measurement system but the my heaviest was 130kg now I'm 70kg. Now I'm actually trying to gain a kg or two. It takes a lot of patience and hard work.
It’s the same way we can’t imagine how people get hooked into hard core drugs, or become hoarders or become alcoholics. People turn to unhealthy things to help them cope with things like trauma they may have experienced
God bless the EMT’s. They were very caring & concerned… they did an awesome job. I pray that this young lady gets all the help that she needs & pulls through for a better life. Blessings to her & her entire support team. 🙏🏼❤
Yeah, she's pretty. So was the girl standing outside in the pink shirt. I think it's safe to say this is a family that doesn't lack in the face department.
It’s usually a lot harder than this and we don’t always have that energy to spend being sweet. Not to mention they’re probably happy to hear that she’s actively trying to get into a condition where they no longer make regular calls on har
I'm glad the EMT's were so nice to her, I'm sure this was super embarrassing. If that were me I would have been crying bawling my eyes out if I had to have help to move like that.
That is 100% true and I have no idea why people don't get this. This is especially true for people who have been victims of sexual violence. They feel "safer" for multiple reasons
Autumn Asters Yes! This is very true. I think Roxane Gay’s book Hunger illustrates that so well. Her story is horrific and can teach a lot about how sexual violence can drive a person to want to protect their body by any means, even if it makes them sick in the long run.
The firefighter that said ‘I got you, you ain’t going nowhere’ is amazing. If only I could find a relationship as strong as his determination to not let her fall lol.
I’m praying that she will succeed. People are cruel because this isn’t what they are going through bc they have bad things they are going through that they don’t want the world to know
@@cocohorselover8059 Sorry, I posted the link, it must not be showing? Her name is Octavia Gahagans... if you google her there's a lot of info about her weight loss
This is one of the VERY few who actually seem like a nice person her family seemed nice and supportive. Most others are screaming cursing acting nasty they look dirty :-/ I wish her the best.
Yea she is if u notice most big people have really pretty faces they just big i have notice growing up she can do it she took the first step by going to Texas
How do people afford to live when they don't leave their apartment for years or work? I'm not trying to sound rude, I'm genuinely curious that's why I ask...
First class first responders. It’s nice to see how respectful and caring their treatment was. Good luck on your journey. You can do it. You are worthy. You deserve to be healthy and happy❤️❤️🙏🙏
Dr. Now is amazing. He's even waiting for his patient outside and worried about her health. He's straightforward. Unlike all these other doctors just trying to make millions by visiting their patients for 5 mins and doing the bare minimum while ending up misdiagnosing or overprescribing.
Humans are remarkable and resilient, especially when we have the love and support of our family and the kindness of strangers. I know this is about her struggles, but it really is very inspiring to watch
@@belinda1993 I'll assume he scrolled through the comments while watching the video and noticed that it wasn't trolled with insults and cruelty. Not the case anymore. Lots of shitheads.
The last few seasons of this show have actually had people I want to root for. Like her story 🥺 just makes me want her to succeed! She is so so sweet. In the past there were just so so many people who were just horrible and that were just taking advantage of doctors and their family.
People please! Walk a day in her shoes, then I dare you be so cold and rude. Lets all make this a no judgement zone and fight with her. Think of your own struggles, those hidden things you don't want anyone to know about,or things others do know and have said things to hurt you. We can all do better and support each other in love.
People need to stop judging this woman have some compassion, and mercy for her. Sometimes people can be so depressed they statrt eating alot. God bless her.
I agree with you but I also agree that she should get out of bed and Exercise a bit because if she dosent change now she could possibly die and in order to get better she needs to Exercise
I feel so sorry for her and I wish she will get all the weight down in the next three years . There's a life that's waiting for you to live ma'am so do your best to walk again and breathe better . All love .
She’s sweet and she has a beautiful family. I’m so happy the firefighter team were so nice to her. It doesn’t matter what shape we are in, we all deserve respect.
we should be respectful enough to take care of ourselves so we dont put burden into others. Quit eating cheese burgers, eat healthy and exercise. its that simple
So sad she’s had to go through all this and I don’t completely blame her as it’s not easy to lose weight for some people. I myself have a yo-yo body one minute il be slim next overcweight , but il try to get back into shape for the sake of my kids. I’m glad she’s doing something finally to lose weight so she may have a longer life for her kids. I don’t mean to sound harsh but the other adults are quite overweight too and it’s best for their own sakes if they focus on getting rid of excess weight . It’s really sad when people get so big and become dependent on their family
As an EMT myself, I am so damn proud of how professional and courteous the team of EMS and FD were. To them, she was their patient, nothing more, nothing less and they treated her with the respect she deserves.
@Terri Mansfield Hi! So I am completely blind. Will I still be able to do it? Thank you for the encouragement, friend! It means so much to me right now.
I looked her up and she's made a lot of amazing progress! She also sells gorgeous jewelry online, the site's called Crayons and Chains. We love a queen doing what's best for her future and also running a small business!
@dream big she is very fit now and treat people like the human they are cause if it was you how would you feel. if you don't have something nice to say don't say it at all
She was really embarrassed. This takes courage! -the act, the recording, the editing/voice over. I’d have died a million times from embarrassment and shame. This is actually inspiring!
Nah f that, we need to stop treating grow n adults like babies and over rewarding and saying sht like so proud of you for doing basic shit that's actually saving their own life. It's this exact pampering that makes society weak and creates people like that. Some people need a hard truth. Ain't nothing to be proud of wasting tax dollars to just be escorted out of ur damn house. Gros up, stop eating so damn much, be an adult. That's what we need to say
I've always been skinny, but last year, I gained a lot of weight. And I'm telling you it's difficult to lose it. These people, maybe some of them are lazy. But we think it's just being fat, we think it's just a physical problem. But what makes it difficult to lose weight is the psychological pain that you'll experience everyday. Goodluck to these guys. I really hope they become healthier.
She has such a great attitude and seems to be very determined. I pray she is able to succeed in completing her goals of getting to a healthy weight. Which I know she will with her attitude
I love a strong, sensitive,and compassionate blackmen.The way he communicate with a person is so touching.He told her "we got you "You don't trust us"?🤣🤣🤣
She May have unintentionally put her self in this situation with her weight but she intentionally is putting in the work to better her self. She is extremely strong and inspiring thank you for allowing us to see these steps in your life!
Dr. Now is literally the best they've had for this show, he cares and is humble when he sees the hype that's surrounding him. I've seen shows where he is complimented as "the best", but he moves right along with the appointment as if they've said nothing
can you imagine how much her ribs must hurt? a while ago i was sick in bed for a few days and my ribs got really sore from all the pressure (keep in mind i weigh 115 lbs), so just imagine being bedridden at 700 lbs for years. hope she gets better. edit: i have never gotten this many likes before! thanks :)
I weigh 160 (weight gain due to pregnancy) and was stuck in my bed for weeks with severe morning sickness legit not able to keep anything in my stomach crying because I was so empty painfully puking, and my ribs didn’t hurt or “have pressure” so I’m curious why you had pressure? Unless you were sick in the respiratory department
You sure you didn't have Pleurisy? It's an inflammation of the lining of the lungs that can develop often when we're sick. Makes it really painful to breath and cough. I've had it and boy does it suck lol.
She seems very aware that she has a problem & wants to get help. I’ve got my money down that she’s gonna win🙏

She'll be a force to be wreckend with! She's beautiful ♡
Yeah, she's pretty. So was the girl standing outside in the pink shirt. I think it's safe to say this is a family that doesn't lack in the face department.

Right! I want that on a road trip.
As long as you aren't the driver
Those people were amazing!!! The level of respect and attention they gave her was exactly what she needed. 🥰
The way the EMT and firefighters were with her 😭😭😭 Real life angels
I love how they we so gentle moving her and helping her sit up
👑👑👑💙💙💙💙💛
It’s usually a lot harder than this and we don’t always have that energy to spend being sweet. Not to mention they’re probably happy to hear that she’s actively trying to get into a condition where they no longer make regular calls on har

What is she ?
Seems like a sweet girl. Can’t wait to see her transformation
💯
My thoughts also
RICKY HAGGERTY she can do it.its gonna take time but it’s worth it.good luck sweetheart and stay focus 😙🌹🌹🌹
Yes she,s my darling i love her💞💞
Right because she is not a bad looking person
I'm glad the EMT's were so nice to her, I'm sure this was super embarrassing. If that were me I would have been crying bawling my eyes out if I had to have help to move like that.
I’m a teenager. I’m overweight too. This is hard. Life is hard.
A lot of these people need therapy, not just a diet and surgery. A lot of trauma often leads to this type of food addiction behavior.
It is possible that it could be a form of an eating disorder.
That is 100% true and I have no idea why people don't get this.
This is especially true for people who have been victims of sexual violence. They feel "safer" for multiple reasons
I’m obese (200lbs) and I just eat food cause I like it🤷♀️
Autumn Asters Yes! This is very true. I think Roxane Gay’s book Hunger illustrates that so well. Her story is horrific and can teach a lot about how sexual violence can drive a person to want to protect their body by any means, even if it makes them sick in the long run.
Right
Imagine not having vitamin D from not seeing the sun in years. That's crazy.

@@elisscaliving5864 You can also obtain it in supplement form or enriched foods.
@@elisscaliving5864 kinda. But nothing beats the natural sunlight.
You can always take Vitamin D as a supplement.
Ya that is crazy
The EMT was so nice they made her feel not embarrassed
Poor woman. Nobody is free from any addiction, food is one.
Very empathetic comment. Thank you, kindly.
When the lady said well lets get Rollin straight shade
Black Broly lmaooo I thought the same thing!! 😭😭😭😭

Obviously that emt didn’t want to waste her day doing that shit
Lol i caught that too
Yeah I peeped that too...
The firefighter that said ‘I got you, you ain’t going nowhere’ is amazing. If only I could find a relationship as strong as his determination to not let her fall lol.
Hello shelby grethings from panama babe
I just said the same thing, words and actions I could find in a man
Lol
Well she is not going anywhere for real so....
Yesssss!!!!
I’m praying that she will succeed. People are cruel because this isn’t what they are going through bc they have bad things they are going through that they don’t want the world to know
Why u posting comments twice?
But they are going something

Do you have a link to that ?
@@cocohorselover8059 Sorry, I posted the link, it must not be showing? Her name is Octavia Gahagans... if you google her there's a lot of info about her weight loss
I Hope she still losing , cause she is still morbidly obese.She was nearly 700lb.Still a lot of weight to lose util she is in a normal healthy weight.
What kind, strong men - and woman - helped get her where Octavia needed to go. God bless them all.
This is one of the VERY few who actually seem like a nice person her family seemed nice and supportive. Most others are screaming cursing acting nasty they look dirty :-/ I wish her the best.

She lowkey looks really pretty. Her obseity is just hiding it.
For real
Nigga whaa
Yesss that’s exactly what I was thinking
highkey she’s pretty.
Yea she is if u notice most big people have really pretty faces they just big i have notice growing up she can do it she took the first step by going to Texas
How do people afford to live when they don't leave their apartment for years or work? I'm not trying to sound rude, I'm genuinely curious that's why I ask...
Disability
The show probally gives them the money to do so
Most don’t.. many depend on their families 😑
Child support, food stamps, low income housing, Tanf etc...
That's definitely sad. I hope that her going through this a transformation for not only her health & her body, but also her life. 💪🏻
I love how none of them were making comments, and were just encouraging her, it's so sweet❤
First class first responders. It’s nice to see how respectful and caring their treatment was. Good luck on your journey. You can do it. You are worthy. You deserve to be healthy and happy❤️❤️🙏🙏
Dr. Now is amazing. He's even waiting for his patient outside and worried about her health. He's straightforward. Unlike all these other doctors just trying to make millions by visiting their patients for 5 mins and doing the bare minimum while ending up misdiagnosing or overprescribing.
That's his paycheck .it's not a love story
He always waits outside so do a visual assessment after the king ride to make sure they are in stable condition
You do realise this is TV?
It's so sad that she let herself go. Her weight caused her to be homebound and bedridden. I hope she loses that unhealthy weight and regains her life

She actually did lose! she’s lost a ton of weight is what I’ve heard
Humans are remarkable and resilient, especially when we have the love and support of our family and the kindness of strangers. I know this is about her struggles, but it really is very inspiring to watch
Dang the whole entire EmT unit pulled up that’s true community support right there.
They have too

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

And a waste of resources lol
She was probably covering her face because her eyes were sensitive to that direct sunlight after being inside for years
She did not go to work

It's really surprising that most of the comments are not judging her from her obesity
Bless y'all
Her Spirit 🙏 is just So Lovely💛
Did you come to the comments section just to read negative comments? I don't get, or do you want people to judge her?
You spoke too soon. People suck.
@@belinda1993 I'll assume he scrolled through the comments while watching the video and noticed that it wasn't trolled with insults and cruelty. Not the case anymore. Lots of shitheads.
@@MusicalSavior23 if they eat themselves to 700 lbs then go on a tv show then they can handle jokes and insults
The last few seasons of this show have actually had people I want to root for. Like her story 🥺 just makes me want her to succeed! She is so so sweet. In the past there were just so so many people who were just horrible and that were just taking advantage of doctors and their family.
Why are people saying “she should get out of bed and exercise” when she can’t even move without assistance
Who helped her stay in bed and eat until it was too late?
People please! Walk a day in her shoes, then I dare you be so cold and rude. Lets all make this a no judgement zone and fight with her. Think of your own struggles, those hidden things you don't want anyone to know about,or things others do know and have said things to hurt you. We can all do better and support each other in love.
Tee Green that doesn’t relate to anything I just said
People need to stop judging this woman have some compassion, and mercy for her. Sometimes people can be so depressed they statrt eating alot. God bless her.
I agree with you but I also agree that she should get out of bed and Exercise a bit because if she dosent change now she could possibly die and in order to get better she needs to Exercise
I can't imagine how painful it is to live like this. I truly hope she finds health and happiness
Yes🙏🏼
I feel so sorry for her and I wish she will get all the weight down in the next three years .
There's a life that's waiting for you to live ma'am so do your best to walk again and breathe better .
All love .
what a waste of first responder time and resources

She’s sweet and she has a beautiful family. I’m so happy the firefighter team were so nice to her. It doesn’t matter what shape we are in, we all deserve respect.
You give respect to those that don’t even respect themselves?
@@ayotiM what is your point here?
@@gotcontents958 I’ll get to that. Before I do, could you answer the initial question? Don’t worry.. there’s no wrong answer.
That is So True.
we should be respectful enough to take care of ourselves so we dont put burden into others. Quit eating cheese burgers, eat healthy and exercise. its that simple
So sad she’s had to go through all this and I don’t completely blame her as it’s not easy to lose weight for some people. I myself have a yo-yo body one minute il be slim next overcweight , but il try to get back into shape for the sake of my kids. I’m glad she’s doing something finally to lose weight so she may have a longer life for her kids. I don’t mean to sound harsh but the other adults are quite overweight too and it’s best for their own sakes if they focus on getting rid of excess weight . It’s really sad when people get so big and become dependent on their family
Rose Kay I feel bad too, but let’s not pretend this ain’t her fault.
Just an update, she passed, rip
As an EMT myself, I am so damn proud of how professional and courteous the team of EMS and FD were. To them, she was their patient, nothing more, nothing less and they treated her with the respect she deserves.
I want to be an EMT. Those guys are the type I wish I could be.
@Terri Mansfield Hi! So I am completely blind. Will I still be able to do it? Thank you for the encouragement, friend! It means so much to me right now.
I love how them brothers came through with love like that.
Hi Charlene, how are you doing
Yes ma'am! It was different 💖👍🏾
Me too. Loved that so much.
its not love they get paid for
doing their job.
I looked her up and she's made a lot of amazing progress! She also sells gorgeous jewelry online, the site's called Crayons and Chains. We love a queen doing what's best for her future and also running a small business!
Good for her..... I brought some of her items very nice
@dream big she is very fit now and treat people like the human they are cause if it was you how would you feel. if you don't have something nice to say don't say it at all
@Frances Van Siclen looks somebody is mad because she has a healthy body now stayy madd luvvv💖
Frances Van Siclen yes a queen who changed her life for the better and is making way more money than you 🙈💕
Frances Van Siclen go wash your ass 😽💗
Dr waiting the 🚑 is ever so comfortable show his dedication to his profesion the way he's speak to her , bless both and the 🏥 teams, 🙏
She was really embarrassed. This takes courage! -the act, the recording, the editing/voice over.
I’d have died a million times from embarrassment and shame. This is actually inspiring!
I wonder how courageous it was to let herself get to that point
This is the farthest thing from Inspiring, she is dying cause she is so fat. She doesnt have a choice but this or die
Me too.
Nah f that, we need to stop treating grow n adults like babies and over rewarding and saying sht like so proud of you for doing basic shit that's actually saving their own life. It's this exact pampering that makes society weak and creates people like that. Some people need a hard truth. Ain't nothing to be proud of wasting tax dollars to just be escorted out of ur damn house. Gros up, stop eating so damn much, be an adult. That's what we need to say
If she’s that embarrassed she’d would want to get the help. Instead of eating her fat ass away
I applaud Ocatvia for trying to help herself. Best wishes to her.

Same I just was saying how professional they are.
One of the few people on the show who takes responsibility and tries seriously. Good for her.
Just what I was gonna say💗
Calla
I've always been skinny, but last year, I gained a lot of weight. And I'm telling you it's difficult to lose it.
These people, maybe some of them are lazy. But we think it's just being fat, we think it's just a physical problem. But what makes it difficult to lose weight is the psychological pain that you'll experience everyday.
Goodluck to these guys. I really hope they become healthier.
Those EMTs and FF were freaking awesome.
She has such a great attitude and seems to be very determined. I pray she is able to succeed in completing her goals of getting to a healthy weight. Which I know she will with her attitude
I love how she struggled helping herself out of bed....
Like she didn't just wait on them
I love a strong, sensitive,and compassionate blackmen.The way he communicate with a person is so touching.He told her "we got you "You don't trust us"?🤣🤣🤣

Hello I like your natural beauty and I like your comments very meaningful
So sweet right??
She May have unintentionally put her self in this situation with her weight but she intentionally is putting in the work to better her self. She is extremely strong and inspiring thank you for allowing us to see these steps in your life!
Dr. Now is literally the best they've had for this show, he cares and is humble when he sees the hype that's surrounding him. I've seen shows where he is complimented as "the best", but he moves right along with the appointment as if they've said nothing
This is so sad
She had many years to back out of this...she didn't just wake up like that. It took hard work and dedication to be that effing lazy and fat.

Give it up for the EMTs. They were nothing short of what the world needs most! Kindness and compassion... Well done guys!!!
can you imagine how much her ribs must hurt? a while ago i was sick in bed for a few days and my ribs got really sore from all the pressure (keep in mind i weigh 115 lbs), so just imagine being bedridden at 700 lbs for years. hope she gets better.
edit: i have never gotten this many likes before! thanks :)
Were you laying on your stomach the whole time?
They’re must be a lot more fat on her so her ribs don’t even touch the bed, maybe ?
I weigh 160 (weight gain due to pregnancy) and was stuck in my bed for weeks with severe morning sickness legit not able to keep anything in my stomach crying because I was so empty painfully puking, and my ribs didn’t hurt or “have pressure” so I’m curious why you had pressure? Unless you were sick in the respiratory department
You had pain because you weigh 115. The less fat there is to protect bony prominence such as elbows, Ribs the more pressure.
You sure you didn't have Pleurisy? It's an inflammation of the lining of the lungs that can develop often when we're sick. Makes it really painful to breath and cough. I've had it and boy does it suck lol.
