Does the show pay for the skin surgery? Or is that included in the doctors price? After losing that much weight, there would be no way to be ok without having the extra skin removed.
Keep it up. The “pleasure” of food is incredibly short lived. If you can determine what compels you to over eat you can snap out of the habit of eating to feel good.
Ikr. Those videos about obese people saying they love their body just the way it is.. They shouldn't! or what? Do they want health and heart problems because they accept obesity? ._.
Yasmine Bensai yup, couldn’t agree more. They always say they’re fighting for every shape of body, but in actuality, only the obese, not the anorexic or underweight or regular overweight ppl.
I lost 25 pounds and started working out to gain abs and other muscle. Thats my strory. I know its nothing compared to theirs but it changed my life and im much happier now. Just felt like sharing it
Why does everyone need to make life a beauty contest. They lost weight so they could get healthy, they are not worth less because you don't find them attractive. I'm a straight female so those girls looks mean nothing to me but their health does, humans need to be taken care of and that means helping people be able to help themselves :)
"pretty" as in clear skin. You're not pretty unless you have clear skin. People don't realize that with clear skin, you can be a plus size model! Idiots.
I'm 5'5" and a year ago I weight 196lbs which is obese according to my BMI. I cry in my sleep and emotional unstable for 6 months. And at August 2018, i finally snapped. Crying wont help me lose weight. So I began my journey with husband giving me 1 rule : NO PILLS INVOLVED. And here I am now 20th March 2019.. 140lbs, from XXL to S 🥰 solely on 5miles morning jog & walk routine. Still far away from my target. Wish me luck!
Don't look only at your BMI - people are different ... In our church is a young guy, who is 2,2m tall and worked as a body building trainer for 10 years. He has really very big muscles, a good figure . Last year he watet to go to a police academy (in Germany). They told him he should loose some weight, because his BMI is too high -- we laughed about it - it sounds like a joke !! At his body isn't a single little bit of fat - muscles weigh high !!
Christina brought me to tears. She was so determined and focused and grateful. Lovely lovely person. I wish her every happiness.. she's an inspiration!
Nikki didnt have gastric bypass, she had gastric sleeve. I also had gastric sleeve. In march it will be 2 years. I went from 435lbs and im down to 180lbs. Im left with a massive amount of skin. My Dr said between 20-30 pounds of skin. Thats the next step for me, skin removal. Surgery helps alot but we still have to eat right to maintain the loss
@@loveitsonlybabyscars6778 Gastic sleeve is cutting away from the stomach to just leave a tube-like organ, the bypass makes a part of the stomach smaller and adds a going around directly to the gastrointestinal passage, so most food doesn't even go through the stomach. The second one is a bigger surgery with even more risk of not getting enough nutrition afterwards. Both have pros and cons though. Both methods are nonreversible. There was gastric banding once but here in Germany they don't do it anymore because of the many complications (in the hospital that I went to, I should add).
Awesome. Too many people just think it's just surgically enforced starvation but it has a powerful effect on your metabolism and endocrine functions. Being obese throws everything out of whack from satiety signals, to the reward center of your brain, to even being able to access your fat stores (inflammation, scarred fat) and surgery basically resets everything back to normal. It really is a true second chance at life.

Great video!! Melissa should really be #1. She is one of the reasons this show has lasted this long!! She proved that you could lose weight after the surgery!! Her weight loss was drastic for that time and made this surgery more credible. I love her❤️❤️
Such incredible inspirational women! I watched all of their stories and was just amazed at the strength and courage of these women. They truly are success stories! Best of health, love and happiness in their beautiful full lives 👍
I used to be friends with Nikki Webster, I'm so proud of her and remember all her old ways she tried to loose weight. She always tried so hard and I'm so happy she was successful
Trust me, they struggle to lose the last bit as well. Their ending weights are still on the heavier side. Most of the losses are from the surgery. Good luck!
the more your weight goes down, the more difficult it gets to lose. Its very easy to lose one hundred pounds, when you weigh 4 or 5 hundred. People are not meant to be anywhere near that big, so it actually takes alot of maintenance (constant over eating) to keep that weight on
Major props to them! I know how hard it is to loose weight so I’m very proud of them and I hope that they live the rest of their lives happy and healthy!
I'm 110 lbs overweight, as I get older, it beats the hell out of my knees and my back. My hats off to all the people who have committed to changing their lives.
While surgery is an option, please be aware it is not a quick fix or an easy option. Try making 1 positive and permanent change a month. For example the first month you could try having fruit instead of snacks. I think the best thing to do is loose your weight slowly so it stays off. Most importantly though remember you are beautiful and perfect just the way you are. 😃💖🐴
MsUn PC Actually I used to be about 5"3' and 185 and now I'm down to 130. I would like to be 120 but I'm not sure if that's even possible because I have so much muscle anyway. While I agree that the last 10-15lbs are the hardest, I think there is a such thing as magic pill. It's called adderall lol. To me, losing 60lbs is worth gaining back 10lbs. I have an extremely physical job that helps me keep it off. But I also don't eat like I used to either to make sure I never ever have to start from square 1 again. Once I saw how much better looked at a decent weight, that was sufficient enough to keep me from going overboard.
Having a Weight loss/ Gastric Bypass surgery isn't a magic pill that will reduce your weight immediately, it is the sheer will and tenacity of these people that made it possible for them to have this unbelievable transformation.
This is one of the most inspirational videos I’ve ever seen about weight loss. At my heaviest, I at one time weighed 250 pounds. I’ve yo-yo dieted all my life, struggling with compulsive eating. As with any addiction, it is extremely difficult to change to a better lifestyle but thanks to this wonderful doctor and others like him, people who are seemingly hopelessly overweight can now get help. Even with surgery, it is still a challenge to eat healthy and stay away from the foods you love. Especially in a society that throws messages at you constantly to both eat whatever you want but you’re not worthwhile unless you’re thin. All these attractive women are amazing! And I salute them. I’m still trying to keep my weight down. It’s something that never really goes away. But once an individual can master their diet, it’s fantastic how a whole new world of wonderful possibilities can open up. Not everyone can do it although everyone deserves respect at any size. But human nature being what it is, it’s much easier to live in society if you weigh less. Coincidentally I weighed myself before going online. I am now around 130 pounds. But believe me it’s a fight every day to keep the pounds off. Best wishes to all who try and congratulations to all that succeed!
i'm bored surgery did not take away the problem, it just helps. People who undergo surgery for weight loss usually gain the weight back so do not discredit these ladies for their hardwork
How on earth does a 22yr old get to 673 lbs? Seriously who was feeding her? Whoever it was should be charged with abuse. This is insane. These enablers are at fault too.
I was thinking the same thing. I'm assuming she grew up around someone that was also an emotional eater. My own mother is one. I have to be careful when I'm stressed not to reach for for food because I know it's a learned behavior.
i would also say that you don't get that big at 22 unless you have multiple factors involved. That means first and foremost crappy genes (when it comes to metabolism and storage), Maybee a hormonal issue, like PCOS where she would rapidly gain weight and be insulin resistant aswell as holding on to fat easier. And ten ofcourse se would also have to eat huge amunts and unhealthy options aswell as being nonactive physically. I know people that eat like absolute crap and huge amounts, but still don't gain weiight because they have a high metabolism and a great way of turning food into muscle with minimum physical activity...i do however see their lifestyle catching up to them as they get older slightly.. But yeah genes and hormones are the most important factors. As far as overeating it could be caused from depression and comfort-eating. there are to kinds of people, those who starve and feel no hunger in a stressed or depressed situation, and those who who feel awful but food fills them up making them less sad. Also alot of people look in the fridge ou of boredom today an not out of hunger, because food is so accessable. and also as you said, she must have had enablers around her, not stopping her and putting her on a diet and forcing her into physical activity..because i doubt she gained all the weight since she moved away from home. I think she was probably big all her life, but gained even more after puberty.
Yes, depression & bullying can lead to overeating, most of us have been there; but someone was buying exorbitant amounts of food for this kid ALL through childhood. AND feeding this kid exorbitant amounts of food for 22 years. After the kid went through 10 bags of Doritos, 50 bags of gummy bears, 5 stuffed crust pizzas, & 5 Big Macs per day, doesn't a parent say: That's enough, I can't afford this and I'm not feeding you anymore today? the parents should've been charged with abusive feeding.
I'm about 180 I believe I havent checked lately bur I've been working out for the past month and started to eat less and drink lots more water I'm confidenr and hope i can reach 140 before I'm 15
It’s because your skin is mostly determined based of genetics. Like 90%. The other is from diet, products you’re using, and hormones. Also drinking loads of water doesn’t help your skin 👌🏻
Well done...WELL DONE...instead of the usual whining, crying and blaming everyone else but themselves, these women took control in life by themselves...making the right choice. And that's it...it's all about choice
It can be hard though if you think everyone despises you - also, that surgery would've been extremely expensive. The vast majority couldn't afford that sort of thing, so I guess it does depend as well on your financial status.
Wow, these stories are amazing, and these young ladies are so beautiful , the weight loss has revealed the beauty that was hiding within them. Since hitting my fifties, I have found my own weight has drifted up , and I am having to constantly watch what I am eating, and to exercise more than I have ever had to in my youthful past. A massive well done to these young ladies, I'm sure they will maintain their much healthier life. Xxxxxxxxxx
I remember each one. The struggle for them was disheartening. What a wonderful surprise to see them all in their new bodies and so happy for each one. I cannot choose one, but I think the most touching was Christina...she was so young. She is virtually unrecognizable, especially with the lighter hair!
I have currently employed this specific *2WeightLossFast. Com* for several weeks by now as well as the results are incredible. They give me a lot of strength as well as reduce my desire for foods, yet I do NOT quit when they wear off which I really like, and they also don`t make me jittery. I haven`t changed anything else I`m doing and also have lost 7 lbs. .
It's good to see that they've changed for the better. It's sad to think that people in poorer countries die from starvation but in more wealthy countries die of obesity. Its a sick world
Junk food is cheap in the USA. Junk food companies and brand restaurants prioritize poor neighborhoods. Meanwhile it's hard to get acces to fresh vegetables, sallads, nuts and fruit if you live in certain areas or in certain socioeconomic situations. It isn't like Europe or were I live in Europe. A normal menu at McDonald's can easily go for 9 dollars. Similar prices in other similar and local fast food joints. You can easily gain weight if you aren't able to change your situation after the surgery.
There's places in the U.Swhere there is no grocery store nearby but there's fast food and liquor stores, these places are called "food deserts". There actually is one near where I live unfortunately. My father who spent a good portion of his life in Europe has made it very clear to me that where he lived is the exact opposite, similar to what you said.
That's true. In Europe if youre in low economic brackets, you nearly have to save to eat junk. Especially in North-Western Europe. In Scandinavia its insanely expensive. Its in the top 5 most expensive places in the world. NB! Something odd happened. Id written my above reply about expensive junk etc., but what was posted was some pseudo joke about the people in the video losing 400pounds and I struggle to lose belly fat. I didnt write or post that pseudo joke though!
That is because in America our government gives subsidies to these grain and animal agriculture industries and very very little to the whole fruit and vegetable industry. Our government is literally taking our tax dollars to make junk food cheaper so we get sick and then they charge us outrageous prices for health care coverage because we are all sick. I am a whole foods plant based vegan and my tax dollars are being spent on making the unhealthiest food on the planet the cheapest. If the grain, meat and dairy industries had their subsidies taken away we would be able to have Extremely cheap fruit and vegetables! I just looked it up, as of 2016 the US government gave 38 Billion dollars to the meat and dairy industries and only 17 Million to the fruit and vegetable industry. Notice the difference between Billion and Million! That is not including the water subsidies. It is estimated that a pound of beef should cost $20-$50 a pound if we were to remove all subsidies connected to the growth and production of meat. You no longer have to wonder why it is so much cheaper in America. In short, they are just trying to kill us with our own money and as a vegan I am paying to help destroy my own country with my tax dollars. It saddens me greatly. I am not telling anyone to go vegan, but I know for a fact that America would not be such a fat and sick country if we paid the real prices of what our junk food should cost.
Here in our country the junk food is expensive.. while the vagetable and fruits you can only get it free especially in provinces...but were craving with meat at burger..
where i live (central europe) McDonalds costs julst like food at better restaurant and only less then 2.-4 euro then costly restaurant. its cheaper to go eat at cheap restaurant then junk food. and poorest people cook since its cheapest way to get good lunch. what many people dont realize is that ingredients may not be as cheap as a food in restaurant but from these ingredients you can make more then one plate.
I would like to challenge others to do this.. I did weigh 379. pounds. I am now at 223pounds.. this includes 2 heart attack and wanting to quit smoking.. I still smoke but I am back to eating healthy again.. please pray for me.. they gave me 2 months to live.... Hope to hear from you soon..
Thank you.. I love everyone whom struggles.. We are the ones that understand that the world breaks all of us, but in the end we are stronger in our broken places... Continued success ; big or small, we need each other
How old are you? Make sure you’re eating healthy foods, and maybe try vaping.. They helped my brother quit smoking, and it might help you. I hope you can lose the weight, and get healthier, because you’re life does hold value. There must be people who care for you, and wouldn’t want to see you go. 🙏☺️ Get well friend
I LOVE to see these success stories!! This is one of my favorite shows, it’s a complete addiction!! Destinee is my absolute favorite, I wanna meet her!! 🥰🥰 idk why this show makes me hungry tho, I get off in the mornings, watch it on my DVR, with my junk food, makes me happy!
I promise every single person reading this is capable of more than you think... your mind will give up before your body 9/10 times! All of these people genuinely wanted to lose weight and had the will power to do it so they made it happen and any of you can too. Chase your dreams people!
I know that sounds cliche but "Your mind will give up before your body" that speaks to me... I'll hold that quote to truth if my mind doesn't give up and forget it haha, thanks for sharing ☺
I used to weigh 250 pounds but now I weigh around 180 pounds. I only need to lose 10 more pounds to be healthy. But I kinda lost motivation. But I’m still happy nevertheless 😊
I was slightly overweight for my hight at 165lbs, I lost 17 of those and am now at 147lbs. I felt horrible back then, I can't imagine how'd they feel. Good for them!
To anyone struggling with weight issues, self esteem problems, or feeling uncomfortable in their own body: Remeber, you are human, you are beautiful. You are important, useful, and capable of turning your life around. Don't wear make-up to cover your features, don't hide the way you look. Don't judge yourself, your body is not the cover of a book. The mirror will not kill you, show it who is boss, don't look back at the past, or all the happiness you have lost. Rebuild your life, right here, right now. You can do it. You. Can. Do. It. *you* *can* *do* *it.*
Dr Now also recruited Melissa to work for him as a patient liason worker. She helps those who come in wanting to lose weight. She really is inspirational. They all are!!
For all the ignorant people in the comments, weight loss surgery isn't the same as liposuction -_- They didn't take an easy way out getting surgery, they had to change their whole lifestyle and work hard.
Jimmie Mc rustles everyone has struggles and some struggle with addiction, obviously food is their addiction. I think your being a little inconsiderate.
I've never had weight issues, except for the opposite... and doing everything I could do to gain weight over the years, because of a host of health related issues. So, I feel like I understand these people in the video in many ways. I enjoy watching this one now & then, to see those folks feeling good about themselves after what they go through. Peace. 3:)
I honestly don’t know how anyone can reach those high weights but I’m super proud to each one for changing their. I can’t even imagine how difficult it is and to keep it off is even more impressive! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
People need to stop focusing on the fact that they were overweight and start focusing on how amazing they are and how hard they worked to loose weight they are so inspiring
Which of these transformations do you think was the most amazing?
Does the show pay for the skin surgery? Or is that included in the doctors price? After losing that much weight, there would be no way to be ok without having the extra skin removed.

Great! Don't give up. Know that your eating and exercise habits have to be something you can do for the rest of your life.

Awesome. Too many people just think it's just surgically enforced starvation but it has a powerful effect on your metabolism and endocrine functions. Being obese throws everything out of whack from satiety signals, to the reward center of your brain, to even being able to access your fat stores (inflammation, scarred fat) and surgery basically resets everything back to normal. It really is a true second chance at life.

Anytime someone reclaims their life and true self it's golden!!!
It’s crazy that people give themselves health issues and disabilities w/this weight gain. So happy for these people, huge accomplishment.
Who else found this really satisfying?
The first one became absolutely gorgeous! She’s honestly so stunning and inspiring!
KitKat Meep they're all gorgeous
You're right the first looked amazing af
She always had a pretty face.
KitKat Meep Even when she was obese you could tell she had a pretty face.
eakpala18 yup
Such incredible inspirational women! I watched all of their stories and was just amazed at the strength and courage of these women. They truly are success stories! Best of health, love and happiness in their beautiful full lives 👍
I just appreciate how confident and happy everyone is now. I love this show. Dr Now has helped so many people.
I used to be friends with Nikki Webster, I'm so proud of her and remember all her old ways she tried to loose weight. She always tried so hard and I'm so happy she was successful
These amazing people are losing 400+ pounds and I'm over here struggling to lose 20. *Sigh*
Trust me, they struggle to lose the last bit as well. Their ending weights are still on the heavier side. Most of the losses are from the surgery. Good luck!
the more your weight goes down, the more difficult it gets to lose. Its very easy to lose one hundred pounds, when you weigh 4 or 5 hundred. People are not meant to be anywhere near that big, so it actually takes alot of maintenance (constant over eating) to keep that weight on
Poor you wow here’s a cookie
Fred I'm sorry 😞
Me too I have to lose 40 pounds this gives me motivation if they can do it I too congratulations to all these strong beautiful girls
Major props to them! I know how hard it is to loose weight so I’m very proud of them and I hope that they live the rest of their lives happy and healthy!
I have a lot of respect for these persons, because it requires lots of efforts, physically, but most mentally. So thumbs up for all of you!!!
Cracks open another liter of Coke "how do ppl do this to themselves"
lmaooo

Omg a litter O_o thats insane
Hahaha
I'm 110 lbs overweight, as I get older, it beats the hell out of my knees and my back. My hats off to all the people who have committed to changing their lives.
Voodoo Child there isn’t anything to stop you changing your life or even just improving it.
Believe in yourself
You can do it
😃💖🐴
Happy Horse, thank you for your kind words. I appreciate it. I am considering having sleeve surgery, I hate being fat!
While surgery is an option, please be aware it is not a quick fix or an easy option.
Try making 1 positive and permanent change a month. For example the first month you could try having fruit instead of snacks.
I think the best thing to do is loose your weight slowly so it stays off.
Most importantly though remember you are beautiful and perfect just the way you are.
😃💖🐴
VOODOO CHILD thats not alot of weight...im about the same😎
MsUn PC Actually I used to be about 5"3' and 185 and now I'm down to 130. I would like to be 120 but I'm not sure if that's even possible because I have so much muscle anyway. While I agree that the last 10-15lbs are the hardest, I think there is a such thing as magic pill. It's called adderall lol. To me, losing 60lbs is worth gaining back 10lbs. I have an extremely physical job that helps me keep it off. But I also don't eat like I used to either to make sure I never ever have to start from square 1 again. Once I saw how much better looked at a decent weight, that was sufficient enough to keep me from going overboard.
Having a Weight loss/ Gastric Bypass surgery isn't a magic pill that will reduce your weight immediately, it is the sheer will and tenacity of these people that made it possible for them to have this unbelievable transformation.
This is one of the most inspirational videos I’ve ever seen
about weight loss. At my heaviest, I at one time weighed 250 pounds. I’ve yo-yo dieted all my life, struggling with compulsive eating. As with any
addiction, it is extremely difficult to change to a better lifestyle but thanks
to this wonderful doctor and others like him, people who are seemingly
hopelessly overweight can now get help.
Even with surgery, it is still a challenge to eat healthy and stay away
from the foods you love. Especially in a
society that throws messages at you constantly to both eat whatever you want
but you’re not worthwhile unless you’re thin. All these attractive women are amazing! And I
salute them. I’m still trying to keep my weight down. It’s something that never
really goes away. But once an individual can master their diet, it’s fantastic
how a whole new world of wonderful possibilities can open up. Not everyone can do it although everyone deserves respect at any size. But human
nature being what it is, it’s much easier to live in society if you weigh less.
Coincidentally I weighed myself before going online. I am now around 130 pounds.
But believe me it’s a fight every day to keep the pounds off. Best wishes to all who try and congratulations to all that succeed!
If these woman can lose hundreds of pounds, I can lose twenty lol. This is crazy
Sam I Am The thinner you are the harder it is to lose weight
Mos of them didn't loose the weight, they went under surgery.
Yeh surgery is cheating
i'm bored surgery did not take away the problem, it just helps. People who undergo surgery for weight loss usually gain the weight back so do not discredit these ladies for their hardwork
Sam I Am I was just thinking the same thing!
It is beautiful to see an inspiring story.
Suzanne Wojciechowski yes!!
I'm on my journey as well and documenting it. Trying to get healthy to be around for my kids. This is inspiring to say the least!
How wonderful to see such results from their true dedication to change their lives. Well done to all of you.
I'm really envious, the women who freaking weigh 600 hardly have a double chin. And here I am. At 170 and I have no neck 😂
Lmao
QueenMinks28 xD GURLLLLLL FR SAME I AM 120 AND MY DOUBLE CHIN IS BIGGER THAN MY FUCTURE LOL
You probably have a weak jaw?
Y’all ain’t got no jawline
Lol...I'm complaining about the struggle to loose 40lbs. Clearly, I need to stop whining 😏.
How on earth does a 22yr old get to 673 lbs? Seriously who was feeding her? Whoever it was should be charged with abuse. This is insane. These enablers are at fault too.
I was thinking the same thing. I'm assuming she grew up around someone that was also an emotional eater. My own mother is one. I have to be careful when I'm stressed not to reach for for food because I know it's a learned behavior.
Binge eating disorder is serious and fatal when people don't get treatment for it
i would also say that you don't get that big at 22 unless you have multiple factors involved. That means first and foremost crappy genes (when it comes to metabolism and storage), Maybee a hormonal issue, like PCOS where she would rapidly gain weight and be insulin resistant aswell as holding on to fat easier. And ten ofcourse se would also have to eat huge amunts and unhealthy options aswell as being nonactive physically. I know people that eat like absolute crap and huge amounts, but still don't gain weiight because they have a high metabolism and a great way of turning food into muscle with minimum physical activity...i do however see their lifestyle catching up to them as they get older slightly.. But yeah genes and hormones are the most important factors.
As far as overeating it could be caused from depression and comfort-eating. there are to kinds of people, those who starve and feel no hunger in a stressed or depressed situation, and those who who feel awful but food fills them up making them less sad. Also alot of people look in the fridge ou of boredom today an not out of hunger, because food is so accessable.
and also as you said, she must have had enablers around her, not stopping her and putting her on a diet and forcing her into physical activity..because i doubt she gained all the weight since she moved away from home. I think she was probably big all her life, but gained even more after puberty.
Yes, depression & bullying can lead to overeating, most of us have been there; but someone was buying exorbitant amounts of food for this kid ALL through childhood. AND feeding this kid exorbitant amounts of food for 22 years. After the kid went through 10 bags of Doritos, 50 bags of gummy bears, 5 stuffed crust pizzas, & 5 Big Macs per day, doesn't a parent say: That's enough, I can't afford this and I'm not feeding you anymore today? the parents should've been charged with abusive feeding.
She was feeding herself, lol
This is the real body positivity movement. So inspirational!
I'm about 180 I believe I havent checked lately bur I've been working out for the past month and started to eat less and drink lots more water I'm confidenr and hope i can reach 140 before I'm 15
You can do it!! Keep working at it!
Keep at it!! 🤗🤗🤗🤗
Awesome! Keep it up 🐱 don't stress too much about the numbers though
I am whining with my weight and laziness not until I saw this video
same, with my "double chin"
Ethan Ragbir pills is literally the worst way to lose weight
Your weight? What weight? You're the size of the forearm of someone who's truly obese...
Chill Frost same I'm complaining about six pounds and for these people the struggle is real
Chill Frost I weight 105 and I complained
I'm so proud of these people!!!!! Great job! I also struggle with my weight, not to this degree but still
it blows my mind that their skin is so clear & i’m here eating healthy with acne😅
Frs like wtf man 😂
It’s because your skin is mostly determined based of genetics. Like 90%. The other is from diet, products you’re using, and hormones. Also drinking loads of water doesn’t help your skin 👌🏻
I’m a testimony to the water bit the more I drank the more I had acne 😂😂
Vicky Jay water is good for you otherwise is don’t think the water drinking bit had anything to do with your acne. It doesn’t help nor make it worse
Well done...WELL DONE...instead of the usual whining, crying and blaming everyone else but themselves, these women took control in life by themselves...making the right choice. And that's it...it's all about choice
It can be hard though if you think everyone despises you - also, that surgery would've been extremely expensive. The vast majority couldn't afford that sort of thing, so I guess it does depend as well on your financial status.
Arms and stomach exercise
I need to lose some weight, but the voices in my stomach don't let me do it. :'-(
Davi de Assis we have the same voices. I used yo always be in shape and slowly ive put on over 40lbs i just cant stop eating
Sarah Franks, if these ppl in the video can do it so can you, baby steps, drink a gallon of water a day it helps
Just switch it up and go plant based. You can eat all of the recipes you want but without animals shit.
I can give you guys some really bad weight loss advice 😂
You can temporarily try an appetite suppressant to give you a jumpstart but practice healthy eating and exercising while doing so
Wow, these stories are amazing, and these young ladies are so beautiful , the weight loss has revealed the beauty that was hiding within them. Since hitting my fifties, I have found my own weight has drifted up , and I am having to constantly watch what I am eating, and to exercise more than I have ever had to in my youthful past. A massive well done to these young ladies, I'm sure they will maintain their much healthier life. Xxxxxxxxxx
Damn and I’m too lazy to get up and turn my bedroom light off..
I remember each one. The struggle for them was disheartening. What a wonderful surprise to see them all in their new bodies and so happy for each one. I cannot choose one, but I think the most touching was Christina...she was so young. She is virtually unrecognizable, especially with the lighter hair!
Paula Jones is my aunt, I love her she is so beautiful ❤️ she’s so happy now !!
Koury Brown, that is fabulous, and she is beautiful, your aunt looks so happy and glowing!
Koury Brown that is amazing!
Liar,
Moonstone The Gem I have no reason to lie.
awh shes so beautiful💞💞
Absolutely love this, Ive seen every episode of this show and seeing the whole transformation is just magnificent.
I have currently employed this specific *2WeightLossFast. Com* for several weeks by now as well as the results are incredible. They give me a lot of strength as well as reduce my desire for foods, yet I do NOT quit when they wear off which I really like, and they also don`t make me jittery. I haven`t changed anything else I`m doing and also have lost 7 lbs. .
"YOU CANNOT FIX, WHAT YOU DON'T ACKNOWLEDGE" what a wise woman

It's good to see that they've changed for the better. It's sad to think that people in poorer countries die from starvation but in more wealthy countries die of obesity. Its a sick world
dekuuuuuuuuu!
How is that possible? That’s just amazing! I can’t express how happy I am for these people.
Them: losing 400lbs and keeping it off
Me: loses 4lbs, drinks water and gains more than I lost.
Wazzup People say this kinda of stuff but they are doing more than they say. Weight doesn’t magically show up
@@aidankhaos7687 It's true it's hard to loose or gain weight
@@vibrantgleam Not hard to gain weight
@@bugenthusiast8892 Nope
@@bugenthusiast8892 But if you're trying to gain weight it's a little hard but yea it is easier
Junk food is cheap in the USA. Junk food companies and brand restaurants prioritize poor neighborhoods. Meanwhile it's hard to get acces to fresh vegetables, sallads, nuts and fruit if you live in certain areas or in certain socioeconomic situations. It isn't like Europe or were I live in Europe. A normal menu at McDonald's can easily go for 9 dollars. Similar prices in other similar and local fast food joints.
You can easily gain weight if you aren't able to change your situation after the surgery.
There's places in the U.Swhere there is no grocery store nearby but there's fast food and liquor stores, these places are called "food deserts".
There actually is one near where I live unfortunately.
My father who spent a good portion of his life in Europe has made it very clear to me that where he lived is the exact opposite, similar to what you said.
That's true. In Europe if youre in low economic brackets, you nearly have to save to eat junk. Especially in North-Western Europe. In Scandinavia its insanely expensive. Its in the top 5 most expensive places in the world.
NB!
Something odd happened. Id written my above reply about expensive junk etc., but what was posted was some pseudo joke about the people in the video losing 400pounds and I struggle to lose belly fat. I didnt write or post that pseudo joke though!
That is because in America our government gives subsidies to these grain and animal agriculture industries and very very little to the whole fruit and vegetable industry. Our government is literally taking our tax dollars to make junk food cheaper so we get sick and then they charge us outrageous prices for health care coverage because we are all sick. I am a whole foods plant based vegan and my tax dollars are being spent on making the unhealthiest food on the planet the cheapest. If the grain, meat and dairy industries had their subsidies taken away we would be able to have Extremely cheap fruit and vegetables! I just looked it up, as of 2016 the US government gave 38 Billion dollars to the meat and dairy industries and only 17 Million to the fruit and vegetable industry. Notice the difference between Billion and Million! That is not including the water subsidies. It is estimated that a pound of beef should cost $20-$50 a pound if we were to remove all subsidies connected to the growth and production of meat. You no longer have to wonder why it is so much cheaper in America. In short, they are just trying to kill us with our own money and as a vegan I am paying to help destroy my own country with my tax dollars. It saddens me greatly. I am not telling anyone to go vegan, but I know for a fact that America would not be such a fat and sick country if we paid the real prices of what our junk food should cost.
Here in our country the junk food is expensive.. while the vagetable and fruits you can only get it free especially in provinces...but were craving with meat at burger..
where i live (central europe) McDonalds costs julst like food at better restaurant and only less then 2.-4 euro then costly restaurant. its cheaper to go eat at cheap restaurant then junk food. and poorest people cook since its cheapest way to get good lunch. what many people dont realize is that ingredients may not be as cheap as a food in restaurant but from these ingredients you can make more then one plate.
I would like to challenge others to do this.. I did weigh 379. pounds. I am now at 223pounds.. this includes 2 heart attack and wanting to quit smoking.. I still smoke but I am back to eating healthy again.. please pray for me.. they gave me 2 months to live.... Hope to hear from you soon..
Thank you.. I love everyone whom struggles.. We are the ones that understand that the world breaks all of us, but in the end we are stronger in our broken places... Continued success ; big or small, we need each other
How old are you? Make sure you’re eating healthy foods, and maybe try vaping.. They helped my brother quit smoking, and it might help you. I hope you can lose the weight, and get healthier, because you’re life does hold value. There must be people who care for you, and wouldn’t want to see you go. 🙏☺️ Get well friend
Annie Val ..thank you for caring.. I am proud of you.
We believe in you! ❤️
Nancy Vlet Sending major prayers for you.
So happy for them all, its like they have set themselves free 🦋 Amazing people with amazing positive attitudes!

I LOVE to see these success stories!! This is one of my favorite shows, it’s a complete addiction!! Destinee is my absolute favorite, I wanna meet her!! 🥰🥰 idk why this show makes me hungry tho, I get off in the mornings, watch it on my DVR, with my junk food, makes me happy!
Wish I could high five them all.
You mean their surgeon lol
Crabby them too...it requires the person to get the motivation to do it. It takes a strong person to care enough when you're already that far gone.
That's my thought!
Godisgood Allthetime why? It makes no damn sense to eat your way to 600lbs in the first damn place and how in the hell is it even affordable?
debsam77 For some people, it's coping. You don't know what these people have been through. Maybe you should be more understanding.
I lost almost 40 pounds because of that show i was scared to be that big
congratulations ! You look gorgeous ❤️
Lana Brooks thank you 💜
You're stunning xxx
Joury .R well done!
God bless the gift he gave to that doctor. Bless up to you DR. And happy for all those who he helped.
I like that this show is about health and not just weight loss. It’s about loosing it and keeping it off and about how mental health impacts weight.
I'm finding it difficult to lose 28lb! Losing over 400 is truly amazing - well done those people!
I feel so much skinnier after watching this.

I promise every single person reading this is capable of more than you think... your mind will give up before your body 9/10 times! All of these people genuinely wanted to lose weight and had the will power to do it so they made it happen and any of you can too. Chase your dreams people!

I know that sounds cliche but "Your mind will give up before your body" that speaks to me... I'll hold that quote to truth if my mind doesn't give up and forget it haha, thanks for sharing ☺
These people must feel so much better! It’s nice to see people take care of their health 💕
I used to weigh 250 pounds but now I weigh around 180 pounds. I only need to lose 10 more pounds to be healthy. But I kinda lost motivation. But I’m still happy nevertheless 😊
So proud of these amazing people...they’re very inspiring for so many...🤗👍
This is called accomplishing your goal weight loss do your best ladies and gentlemen never give up on your goal
So glad for this positive video
Love these stories. Keep up the great work. Looking good ladies💖
This is a great video. Their amazing weight loss was tremendous. Kudos to all of them❤️🥰😍😘
I was slightly overweight for my hight at 165lbs, I lost 17 of those and am now at 147lbs. I felt horrible back then, I can't imagine how'd they feel. Good for them!
Amberlynn Reid could only dream..

Seriously. But she loves her Chinese buffet too much.
To anyone struggling with weight issues, self esteem problems, or feeling uncomfortable in their own body:
Remeber, you are human, you are beautiful. You are important, useful, and capable of turning your life around. Don't wear make-up to cover your features, don't hide the way you look. Don't judge yourself, your body is not the cover of a book. The mirror will not kill you, show it who is boss, don't look back at the past, or all the happiness you have lost. Rebuild your life, right here, right now. You can do it. You. Can. Do. It.
*you* *can* *do* *it.*
Wow im going to screenshot this and read it every day ! For motivation 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Love u for this 😊

What about the excess skin??
It gets surgically removed by Dr. NOW
they cut it in surgery.
Litterally on every person they show. they say got the surgery so LISTEN SIS
Pork rinds.
Ingrid Wouters they get it surgically removed
Dr Now also recruited Melissa to work for him as a patient liason worker. She helps those who come in wanting to lose weight.
She really is inspirational. They all are!!
For all the ignorant people in the comments, weight loss surgery isn't the same as liposuction -_-
They didn't take an easy way out getting surgery, they had to change their whole lifestyle and work hard.
Jimmie Mc rustles ok
Jimmie Mc rustles I agree
Jimmie Mc rustles
Okay, but at least they changed for the better
Mr.Spoon hopefully
Jimmie Mc rustles everyone has struggles and some struggle with addiction, obviously food is their addiction. I think your being a little inconsiderate.
I've never had weight issues, except for the opposite... and doing everything I could do to gain weight over the years, because of a host of health related issues. So, I feel like I understand these people in the video in many ways. I enjoy watching this one now & then, to see those folks feeling good about themselves after what they go through. Peace. 3:)
I honestly don’t know how anyone can reach those high weights but I’m super proud to each one for changing their. I can’t even imagine how difficult it is and to keep it off is even more impressive! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
People need to stop focusing on the fact that they were overweight and start focusing on how amazing they are and how hard they worked to loose weight they are so inspiring
