1000-lb Sisters

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.

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.

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.

I feel a lot of empathy for them. As they don't know better. That is how they were raised. And I think it is very difficult when you have any type of addiction. But the family must put their foot down, support her and someone needs to find a facility so that she can be monitored and helped.
