1000-lb Sisters

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!

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.

I can relate to all of them. I admire Chris being the only brother and holding it down with so many sisters. I am the oldest of eight all girls except one boy. Keeping them from killing each other. I admire Amanda because she keeps it real and stays real to herself.

Amy is hilarious and I can see some of my family members with that similar personality.

I admire Tammy, because most of the time she just keeps her thoughts to herself if she thinks it will prevent a fight. We all lose it from time to time. You all look great for what you have been through. I am extremely heavy too, I can feel for you. Just keep being true to yourselves. I just recently ran across the show and I have been laughing quite a bit. Your new admirer.

Let's see more of Amanda, Chris, and his wife.

They are the only characters that I'm rooting for.

Are all the residents of Kentucky really this damn stupid?

No wonder Mitch (the turtle) McConnell has been a Kentucky politician for this long! Even though Tammy is thoroughly disgusting, I still think that Discovery's facilitation of her demise is very reckless.

She needs to be declared incompetent and put into a care home permanently. She's just too simple to understand how to act in her own best interests.

On the other hand this show is absolutely addicting and I will watch until the last episode (a.k.a. The one with the funeral).

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.
